Minimizing airflow turbulence in women lowers the work of breathing to levels similar to men

Smaller airways increase resistance and the propensity toward turbulent airflow, both of which are thought to be mechanisms behind greater resistive and total work of breathing (Wb) in females. Previous research examining the effect of airway size on the Wb between the sexes is limited by the inabil...
