The study investigates the inspiratory duty cycle in subjects with and without airway hyper-responsiveness both at rest and during a bronchoprovocation challenge. The primary goal is to determine an average inspiratory duty cycle for standard use in the calculation of bronchoprovocation test results.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Average inspiratory duty cycle in subjects with airway hyper-responsiveness measured using ultrasonic spirometer and tidal breathing | The inspiratory duty cycles measured for each participant (in duplicate over at least 24 hours) will be averaged for all participants with airway hyper-responsiveness and for all participants without airway-hyperresponsiveness | 24 hours | |
| Primary | Average inspiratory duty cycle in subjects without airway hyper-responsiveness | The inspiratory duty cycles measured for each participant (in duplicate over at least 24 hours) will be averaged for all participants without airway hyper-responsiveness | 24 hours | |
| Secondary | Within-subject variability in inspiratory duty cycle measured using ultrasonic spirometer and tidal breathing during room air inhalation | Repeat measurements of inspiratory duty cycle during tidal breathing of room air collected at least 24 hours apart | 24 hours | |
| Secondary | Between-subject variability within subject group (i.e. airway hyper-responsiveness group) | Investigation of whether subjects differ in their inspiratory duty cycles (within their respective study group) | 1 hour | |
| Secondary | Variability in inspiratory duty cycle within subjects when inhaling room air versus an aerosol while using tidal breathing through an ultrasonic spirometer | Investigation of whether participants differ in their inspiratory duty cycle when inhaling room air versus a saline vapor (i.e. does an aerosol influence people's breathing pattern) | 1 hour | |
| Secondary | Within-subject variability in provocative dose of methacholine causing a 20% fall in forced expiratory volume (PD20) between repeat methacholine challenges | Repeat PD20 measures collected for each participant will be compared to determine if there is any significant within-subject variability in PD20 | 24 hours | |
| Secondary | Variability in inspiratory duty cycle with progressive airway constriction induced through methacholine challenge testing | The inspiratory duty cycle in each subject will be measured throughout a methacholine challenge during each inhalation period, which will allow for determination of whether the inspiratory duty cycle changes with the progressive airway constriction (or lack thereof) induced through methacholine challenge testing | 24 hours | |
| Secondary | Variability in in inspiratory duty cycle between airway hyper-responsiveness group and group without airway-hyperresponsiveness | Analysis of variance to determine whether subjects differ in their inspiratory duty cycles based on their status as having or as not having airway-hyperresponsiveness | 1 hour | |
| Secondary | Within-subject variability in inspiratory duty cycle measured using ultrasonic spirometer and tidal breathing during saline inhalation | Repeat measurements of inspiratory duty cycle during tidal breathing of nebulized saline collected at least 24 hours apart | 24 hours | |
| Secondary | Between-subject variability within subject group (no airway hyper-responsiveness group) | Investigation of whether subjects differ in their inspiratory duty cycles (within their respective study group) | 1 hour |
