(13) Airway conductance and FEV1 were measured in 25 patients before and after bronchodilator: Following bronchodilator, the correlation coefficient, r, between Gaw and FEV1 increased from 0.58 to 0.70 while there was almost negligible correlation (r = 0.1) between the respective Gaw and FEV1 changes.
(14) Men with symptoms (chest tightness, coughing, and wheezing) after exposure showed decreases of forced expiratory volumes (FEV(1.0)), flow rates on maximum expiratory flow-volume (MEFV) curves, and of vital capacity (VC), while airway conductance (Gaw: TGV ratio) did not decrease significantly ("flow rate response").
(15) Gaw, TGV and sGaw were measured five times at three to five different lung volumes.
(16) A strong linear relationship was found to exist between Gaw (m) and TGV throughout the first year of life (r = 0.92), with no significant difference between Negro and Caucasian infants.
(17) We wondered if the inverse changes in airway conductance (Gaw) and functional residual capacity (FRC) during histamine (H) and acetylcholine (ACH) challenge are interrelated or occur at random.
(18) conductance (GAW), FEV1.0 and residual volume (RV) were also determined for comparison.
(19) A correlation could be established between MI and RV on the one hand and between FEV1.0 or GAW and RV on the other hand.
(20) We interpret the increased exp and insp Gaw to indicate isoproterenol deposition within and bronchodilatation of larger central airways (trachea, main stem, lobar, segmental).

Example Sentences:

(11) We must “stop China’s cyber attacks, stop their territorial expansion into international waters,” stop Russia from “[encountering] mush” and “pushing” with bayonets, make sure Israel isn’t having a sad, cripple Iran with sanctions and ignore everything about climate change because “the greatest threat to future generations is radical Islamic terrorism and we need to do something about it.” The great thing about ignoring science and practicality while threatening to go to war against more than 1.5bn people around the globe is that, if there are any enemy survivors after the bombing stops, they can sail to the port city of Orlando and gawk enviously at all the free people queuing up for their mandatory drug tests atop a natural gas pipeline But don’t sell Walker short on his zero foreign policy experience.

(19) Anyone old enough to have gawked at Diana’s progress, from uneducated 19-year-old target of a secretive thirtysomething, into a wildly competitive, ungovernable celebrity, will surely agree that her achievements merit something more personal, especially considering the steadily declining quality of royal entertainment.
