Limitations and caveats
We were unsuccessful at securing placebo MDI, and the lack of a control group raises the possibility that our findings may reflect natural history of pharyngeal upper airway patency in asthma.

Registered outcomes3

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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Participants With Improved, Unchanged, and Worsened Critical Closing Pressure (Pcrit) From Baseline With 16-week of High Dose Inhaled FP Treatment.16 weeks
Upper airway (UAW) collapsibility, as measured by critical closing pressure (Pcrit), defined as the maximum nasal pressure at which the UAW occludes. Subjects were divided into 3 subgroups: improved (more negative Pcrit), unchanged, or worsened (less negative Pcrit).
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Improved, Unchanged, and Worsened Sleep Disorders Questionnaire (SA-SDQ) From Baseline With 16-week of High Dose Inhaled FP Treatment.16 weeks
Secondary goals include evaluating effects of this medication on severity of obstructive sleep disordered breathing (SDB) (validated by Sleep Disorders Questionnaire (SA-SDQ)). Subjects were divided into 3 subgroups: improved (less negative SA-SDQ score), unchanged, or worsened (more negative SA-SDQ score).
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Improved, Unchanged, and Worsened Anterior Tongue Strength (KPa) From Baseline With 16-week of High Dose Inhaled FP Treatment.16 weeks
The Iowa Oral Performance Instrument (IOPI) will be used. This instrument has a standard-sized air-filled polymer balloon, called tongue sensor or bulb, which can be inserted between the tongue blade and the roof of the mouth. Anterior tongue strength (KPa) reported. Subjects were divided into 3 subgroups: improved (lower anterior tongue strength KPa), unchanged, or worsened (higher anterior tongue strength KPa).
