Registered outcomes2

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryExhaled Levels of Nitric OxideExhaled NO reported during visit, before intervention at baseline, post intervention at 60 minutes and 120 minutes
Nitric Oxide was measured applying a real time technique for measurement of Nitric Oxide in Exhaled Breath Condensate. Elevated Nitric Oxide in exhalate is a measure of elevated production of NO in conditions such as underlying inflammation and/or oxidative stress. Exhaled NO was reported as the mean of three values within 10% of each other.
SecondarySpecific Airway Conductance (sGaw) as Measured by PlethysmographySpecific airway conductance reported during visit, before intervention at baseline, post intervention at 60 minutes and 120 minutes
Specific airway conductance (sGaw) is the airway conductance relative to lung volume because it takes into account the important effect of lung volume on airway resistance, it is a useful index of bronchomotor tone.
