BP = blood pressure; FEV1 = forced expiratory volume in one second; FVC = forced vital capacity; IL = interleukin; MEP = maximal expiratory pressure; MIP = maximal inspiratory pressure; MRC = medical research council; ND = not done; NE = norepinephrine; PFT = pulmonary function test; VC = vital capacity.*p**p
