Previously we have shown that young smoking men show greater fatigability (Morse et al. 2007) and here we hypothesized that the effect would increase with increasing smoking volume.
The absence of correlations between muscle fatigability and any measure of smoking volume contradicts this hypothesis and suggests that the effect of smoking on skeletal muscle fatigability is of an acute nature and/or reaches a ceiling where an increased daily smoking volume does not aggravate the effect.

A simple table is provided of computed respirable particulate concentrations for any indoor location for which the active smoking count, volume, and concentration decay rate (deposition rate combined with air exchange rate) are known.
The clinical parameters investigated were: age, gender, histology, performance status, weight reduction, smoking, tumour volume (according to RECIST criteria), objective response, subjective response (defined from the clinical charts as either: feeling better after treatment or feeling worse after treatment) and the presence of anti-p53 antibodies.
Second, there is a possibility that smoking control policies may affect the volume of smokers' cigarette consumption as well as smoking intensity, but these data are not available from the JGSS.
