Question:

What percentage of the high-exposure people had wheeze symptoms?

Air pollution is a serious problem in many places. One form of air pollution that is suspected to cause respiratory illness is particulate matter (PM), which consists of tiny particles in the air. Particulate matter can come from many sources, most commonly ash from burning, but also from other sources such as tiny particles of rubber that wear off of automobile and truck tires.
The town of Libby, Montana, was recently the focus of a study on the effect of PM on the respiratory health of children. Many houses in Libby are heated by wood stoves, which produce a lot of particulate pollution. The level of PM is greatest in the winter when more stoves are being used and declines as the weather becomes warmer. The study attempted to determine whether higher levels of PM affect the respiratory health of children. In one part of the study, schoolchildren were given a questionnaire to bring home to their parents. Among other things, the questionnaire asked whether the child had experienced symptoms of wheezing during the past 60 days. Most parents returned the questionnaire within a couple of weeks. Parents who did not respond promptly were sent another copy of the questionnaire through the mail. Many of these parents responded to this mailed version.
Table 1.2 presents, for each day, the number of questionnaires that were returned by parents of children who wheezed, the number returned by those who did not wheeze, the average concentration of particulate matter in the atmosphere during the past 60 days (in units of micrograms per cubic meter), and whether the questionnaires were delivered in school or through the mail. image text in transcribed
