Important non‐disease‐related determinants of exhaled nitric oxide levels in mild asthma – results from the Swedish GA2LEN study

Fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) has a potential clinical role in asthma management. Constitutive factors such as age, height and gender, as well as individual characteristics, such as IgE sensitization and smoking, affect the levels of FeNO in population‐based studies. However, their effect on FeNO in subjects with asthma has been scarcely studied.
