Gender-Dependent Effect of GSTM1 Genotype on Childhood Asthma Associated with Prenatal Tobacco Smoke Exposure

Figure 2

Interaction of the GSTM1 genotype and gender with regard to the log-transformed total IgE level at 6 years of age among individuals without prenatal TSE. Among children without prenatal TSE, the log-transformed total IgE level at 6 years of age was significantly lower in females with the GSTM1 null genotype than in the other 3 groups. The results are presented as the mean ± standard error.
