Fig. 1

CIH exposure did not substantially alter baseline pulmonary function. Baseline lung physiology was tested on day 44, two days after last HDM or SAL challenge, using the FlexiVent. (A) total respiratory system resistance (Rrs); (B) total respiratory system elastance (Ers); (C) Newtonian resistance (RN, index of central airways resistance), and; (D) tissue damping (G, index of distal, peripheral airway resistance). N = 10–12 rats/group; Bars: mean ± SEM; Accolades: general or group effect of HDM (2-way ANOVA and Holm-Sidak post-hoc tests for group comparisons)
