A sample enriched for asthma and chronic bronchitis underwent a further questionnaire, pre- and post-bronchodilator spirometry (n = 1,389), skin prick testing, lung volumes, and diffusing capacity measurements. Prevalence estimates were reweighted for sampling fractions. Multiple linear and logistic regression were used to assess the relevant associations.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Measurements and Main Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Main effects and interactions between lifetime asthma, active smoking, and atopy as they relate to fixed AO were measured. The prevalence of fixed AO was 6.0% (95% confidence interval [CI], 4.5\u20137.5%). Its association with early-onset current clinical asthma was equivalent to a 33 pack-year history of smoking (odds ratio, 3.7; 95% CI, 1.5\u20139.3; P = 0.005), compared with a 24 pack-year history for late-onset current clinical asthma (odds ratio, 2.6; 95% CI, 1.03\u20136.5; P = 0.042). An interaction (multiplicative effect) was present between asthma and active smoking as it relates to the ratio of post-bronchodilator FEV1\/FVC, but only among those with atopic sensitization.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Active smoking and current clinical asthma both contribute substantially to fixed AO in middle age, especially among those with atopy.
