Histories of adenoïdectomy and tonsillectomy were ascertained, as well as smoking habits of both parents, using questionnaires answered by 3920 schoolchildren aged 10 to 20. Adenoïdectomy and/or tonsillectomy, considered as an index of repeated upper respiratory tract disease in early childhood, was very significantly related to the amount of smoking by each parent. This relationship persisted when age, sex, day nursery attendance, sibship size, and history of appendicectomy were controlled.
通过对3920名10至20岁学童所填写问卷的分析，确定了腺样体切除术和扁桃体切除术的病史以及父母双方的吸烟习惯。腺样体切除术和/或扁桃体切除术被视为儿童早期反复上呼吸道疾病的一个指标，它与父母各自的吸烟量密切相关。在控制了年龄、性别、是否上过日托、同胞数量以及阑尾切除术病史等因素后，这种关系依然存在。
