Carlos Carpio, MD, Carlos Villasante, MD, Raúl Galera, MD, David Romero, MD, Ana de Cos, MD, Angel Hernanz, MD, Francisco García-Río, MD Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology Volume 137, Issue 3, Pages e4 (March 2016) DOI: /j.jaci Copyright © 2015 American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology Terms and Conditions

Fig 1 Dyspnea during exercise in the 3 study groups. Values are means ± SEMs. The Borg/V′O2 slopes are significantly greater (P < .01) in subjects with asthma or misdiagnosed asthma than in nonasthmatic subjects.

Fig 3 Correlation between exertional dyspnea (evaluated by the slope of Borg ratings over V′O2 [Borg/V′O2 slope]) and residual volume (A), peak respiratory frequency (B), peak ventilatory equivalent of CO2 (ΔVE/ΔV′CO2; C), and serum levels of inflammatory biomarkers (D-F).

Fig E1 Borg/work rate slopes during exercise in the 3 study groups. Values are means ± SEMs. The dyspnea threshold (x-intercept) was significantly greater (P < .001) in subjects with asthma or misdiagnosed asthma than in nonasthmatic subjects.
