Summarizes studies being conducted by CIAR in 1994. One description of the findings of a study on secondhand smoke exposure on the upper airways states, "Findings have indicated that controlled exposure to sidestream tobacco
smoke causes symptoms of mucosal irritation and nasal conjestion. Nasal resistance increases, and is associated with a reduction of nasal volume throughout the nasal cavity including the narrowest anterior segment. These findings are apparent with exposure to STS at 15 ppm CO for one hour."
