(9) Measurement of airway conductance (Gaw) in 6 subjects demonstrated prevention of acute reductions in Gaw at low lung volumes (25% VC) in 4 out of 6 subjects.

(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).
