Unadjusted p-values from comparisons of the proportion of bronchodilator responsiveness within groups, measured by change in (Δ) reactance of the respiratory system measured at 6 Hz (Xrs6) parameters versus change in forced expiratory volume in 1 s, in healthy but symptomatic (Symp), smoking, asthmatic and COPD groups

Asym: asymptomatic; abs: absolute; insp: inspiratory; EFLi: expiratory flow limitation index. Comparisons were by McNemar tests. *: significant p-values after Benjamini–Hochberg adjustment for multiple comparisons, using α=0.10 (10% false discovery rate).
