The effect estimate was log transformed and presented with a 95% confidence interval.

Subjects using inhaled corticosteroids or oral anti-leukotrienes on a daily basis were excluded from the analysis.

* Adjusted for gender, age, height, FEV₁ and smoking history but not adjusted for the variables in the table

** Adjusted both for the variables in the table and gender, age, height, FEV₁ and smoking history
