Associations between asthma questionnaire AQLQ and ACQ-6 changes and respiratory resistance measured with FOT at baseline (5 Hz and 19 Hz). A negative correlation was found between AQLQ improvement and baseline respiratory resistance at both 5 Hz (a) and 19 Hz (b). A positive correlation was seen between ACQ improvement and baseline respiratory resistance at both 5 Hz (c) and 19 Hz (d). FOT, forced oscillation technique; AQLQ, asthma quality of life questionnaire; ACQ, asthma control questionnaire; Rrs, respiratory resistance in cmH2O.s/L; BT, bronchial thermoplasty; BD, bronchodilation
