Assessment of drug effect via normalized parameters of the forced oscillation technique. Forced oscillation technique parameters normalized to baseline values at each concentration of aerosolized methacholine in vehicle treated- (Veh/OVA; closed circles) and dexamethasone treated- (Dex/OVA; closed squares) ovalbumin sensitized and challenged mice. Values were normalized to individual baseline and expressed as mean ± standard deviation. (*p < 0.05 Veh/OVA vs Veh/Sal; ^#p < 0.05 Veh/OVA vs Dex/OVA; ANOVA; n = 5-7 mice/group).
