3 Fig 2 Time to a new physician-confirmed wheezing episode in children randomized to receive prednisolone or placebo for their first rhinovirus-induced wheezing episode. The 2-month time point, which was one of the primary outcomes, has been marked. No difference was found at the 2-month or 12-month time points.

4 Fig 3 Time to a new physician-confirmed wheezing episode in children randomized to receive prednisolone or placebo for their first rhinovirus-induced wheezing episode. Data are represented according to rhinovirus load. P values for interaction between the study drug and rhinovirus load are shown at the 2-month and 12-month follow-ups. Children with a rhinovirus load of greater than 7000 copies/mL had significantly less recurrence at both time points in the prednisolone group compared with the placebo group (see text for details). All children with a high rhinovirus load in the placebo group had a relapse within 100 days.
