2 Fig. 1 Percentage clearances at 1 hour for healthy subjects, patients with asthma, and patients with chronic bronchitis (CB) after acute treatment with placebo versus terbutaline (0.25 mg subcutaneously.) (Data from Camner P, Strandberg K, Philipson K. Increased mucociliary transport by adrenergic stimulation. Arch Environ Health 1976;39: Data from Mossberg B, Strandberg K, Philipson K, Camner P. Tracheobronchial clearance in bronchial asthma: response to beta-adrenoceptor stimulation.

3 Fig. 2 Percentage clearances at 1 hour for healthy subjects after acute treatment with low- versus high-dose nebulized albuterol (see text for dosing). Also given are the mean airway resistances before and after treatment with low versus high dose. Asterisk indicates P < .05 for comparison with control or pretreatment values.
