Abstract
Summary of the research findings
Understanding the genetic basis of airflow obstruction and smoking behaviour is key to determining the pathophysiology of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We used UK Biobank data to study the genetic causes of smoking behaviour and lung health.
9,748 European ancestry individuals with low FEV1 measurements, 4,906 European ancestry individuals with high FEV1 measurements
