It is nice to see a study of fragrance workers, which is a difficult subject. The lack of mean effect on FEV1 can be seen when there are some workers developing occupational sensitisation and many unaffected. Did you look at work-related nasal and asthma symptoms, if so were these more common with particular exposures?
