  1. Coefficient of correlations (r) between Hif1-α mRNA levels in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) cells and neutrophil percentages in BALF, reactance at 5 Hz (X5HZ), and arterial pressure of oxygen PaO2. These values were measured separately in challenged healthy and recurrent airway obstruction-affected horses. (*P < 0.05)
