Figure 3. 3A and 3B: Relationship of Global African Ancestry with Lung Function in African Americans.

Figure 3

Kumar and colleagues demonstrated an inverse relationship between percentage of global African ancestry and baseline forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1 measured in liters) in self-identified African American men and women shown in Panels A and B, respectively. Global African ancestry was estimated using ancestry informative genetic markers. Reproduced from Kumar R, et al. NEJM 2010;363(4):321–330.33
