... Chest discomfort ranged from tightness on full inspiration to generalized chest pain that was accentuated by exercise, cough, and irritation of the nose and throat. Significant changes from control values were reported for several lung-function tests ~ specific airway conductance, pulmonary resistance, FVC, and forced expiratory volume in 3 s)

A study that carried considerable weight in reaching the initial ozone ambient air quality standard of 0.08 ppm was based on the performance of cross-country runners in California (Wayne et al., 1967~. A significant relet ionship was observed between the oxidant concentrations during and 1-3 h before the race and the percentage of runners whose performance decreased compared with that in the previous - 101
