1.   Barker etal reported that low birth weight was associated with lower adult lung function but not with symptoms of wheeze.

2.   Reduced lung function has been associated with low birth weight regardless of whether the child had respiratory complications at birth.

3.   The mechanisms through which prenatal events influence lung function differ from those that affect respiratory symptoms in children.

4.   The oedematous patients had similar lung function, smoking histories, and plasma protein concentrations to the patients without oedema.

5.   However, there were no differences in lung function between the two groups.

6.   It can aggravate asthma and bronchitis and cause coughing, choking and impaired lung function, particularly in people who exercise.

7.   During a tour, the Princess watched patients exercising on treadmills to measure their lung functions.

8.   Among girls who had completed their growth in height, lung function started to decline in smokers even before they left their teen-age years.

9.   And because lung function in mice is so similar to that in people, they say, the finding may point to a way to prevent the disease.

10.   Another showed it might reduce pulmonary hypertension and improve lung function in patients with the disease.
