Figure 1.
Relation of risk factors to specific airway resistance from 3 to 11 years of age. Bold text indicates that the risk factor was significant in the univariate models. Arrows indicate that the risk factor was significant in the best-fit multivariate model. *Significant interaction with age indicates a difference in the rate of change in specific airway resistance over time.
