NO DIFF IN GENDER
THANK YOU FOR COMMENTING ON MY POSTER. THERE WAS NOT A SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE IN BHR BETWEEN MEN AND WOMEN. WOMEN SEEMED TO HAVE A LITTLE BIT MORE OF MILD BHR WHERE AS MEN MORE SEVERE BHR. WOMEN SEEMED TO HAVE BEEN MORE EXPOSED TO ENVIRONMENTAL TOBACCO SMOKE, BUT WOMEN SMOKE LESS THAN MEN, SO IN TOTAL THERE WAS NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE GENDERS. MARIA JUUSELA
