在一项关于呼吸甲烷浓度的研究中，43%的男性和49%的女性产生了可检测到的甲烷。甲烷生产者的比例显着增加，男性，但不是在女性的年龄。肥胖作为衡量的三头肌，前臂，髂上和肩胛下皮褶的总和是显着低于生产者比非生产者。在甲烷生产者中，皮褶厚度和呼吸甲烷浓度之间也存在反比关系。男性的呼吸甲烷浓度低于女性。此外，在血型物质（ABH抗原）分泌者中发现甲烷产生者的比例高于非分泌者。
In a study of breath methane concentration 43 percent of males and 49 percent of females produced detectable amounts. The proportion of methane producers increased significantly with age in males but not in females. Obesity as measured by the sum of triceps, forearm, suprailiac and subscapular skinfolds was significantly less in producers than non-producers. Amongst methane producers there was also an inverse relationship between skinfold thickness and the breath methane concentration. Breath methane concentrations were lower in males than females. In addition, a higher proportion of methane producers was found amongst secretors of blood group substances (ABH antigen) than non-secretors.
