Measurements of nasal airways resistance in normal subjects have shown a significant difference between values obtained in the two respiratory phases. Higher overall values are found during expiration in both the unprepared and decongested nose but these differences fail to maintain statistical significance after application of a decongestant. This indicates that the phase of respiration in which measurement is made must be routinely recorded especially when measurement is made without decongestant, and comparisons of data made only with recordings from equivalent parts of the nasal cycle.
对正常受试者鼻气道阻力的测量显示，在两个呼吸阶段所获得的值之间存在显著差异。在未使用减充血剂和使用减充血剂后，呼气时测得的总体值均较高，但使用减充血剂后，这些差异不再具有统计学意义。这表明，尤其是在未使用减充血剂进行测量时，必须常规记录进行测量的呼吸阶段，并且数据比较应仅与鼻周期等效部分的记录进行。
