Annualized exacerbations requiring oral steroid bursts among four BMI-percentile groups. Each panel indicates the study and treatment. Box plots represent medians and interquartile ranges. Whiskers represent 95th percentile ranges and points denote outliers. BMI-percentile grouping did not affect asthma exacerbations with the exception of MIST daily ICS. P-values were non-significant (NS) in panels (A, C, D, E) comparing BMI-percentile groups 10–84 vs. 85–100.
