    AnnotationThis study confirms that exhaled breath condensate analysis of leukotriens (LTs) is useful in fibrogenic dust exposed subjects, especially LTD4 and LTE4. LT D4 was higher both in the subjects with asbestos exposure and in the silicotics and might point to the activity of the fibrogenic process; on the other hand LT E4 correlated with the level of exposure - asbestos fiber-years and category of silica exposure. On the other hand, LT C4 correlated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. No correlation with daily alcohol consumption, cigarettes/day or systemic diseases was found for LTD4 and LTE4, which supports the theory that analysis of exhaled breath condensate reflects solely processes ongoing in the lungs.
