Inhibitory effect of a leukotriene receptor antagonist (montelukast) on neurokinin a- induced bronchoconstriction  Nunzio Crimi, MD, Corrado Pagano, MD, Filippo Palermo, BSc, Claudio Mastruzzo, MD, PhD, Gaetano Prosperini, MD, Maria P. Pistorio, BSc, Carlo Vancheri, MD, PhD  Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology  Volume 111, Issue 4, Pages 833-839 (April 2003) DOI: 10.1067/mai.2003.161 Copyright © 2003 Mosby, Inc.

Fig. 1 Study design: a 2-phase, randomized, placebo-controlled, crossover study. In the first phase a concentration-response study was performed either with methacholine or NKA in the absence of any drug treatment. During the second phase, each subject recruited went through all possible combinations of drug administration and challenge procedures. R, Random; Meth, methacholine; M, montelukast; P, placebo.
