   11-26-2007 · EurekAlert!
   A new study provides the first evidence that people with higher body mass index may have a greater response to ozone than leaner people. Short-term exposure to atmospheric ozone has long been known to cause a temporary drop in lung function in many people. This is the first study in humans to look at whether body weight influenced how much lung function falls after acute ozone exposure.
