Fig 2 Association between physical activity and bronchial responsiveness. The regression line is based on data from the 81 participants with completed data for bronchial responsiveness. Asthmatic subjects are indicated by solid circles.

Fig 3 PCA of physical activity. Children (scores on the 2 PCA axes) are represented by squares. The gradient in gray is proportional to the average level of activity. The level of bronchial responsiveness is superimposed (vector “reactivity” and associated contours).
