How air temperature affects your breathing
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.

This study looks at how your brain senses your breathing and how that affects the way you breathe. It's for very active, healthy adults aged 18–40 who exercise intensely most days.
This trial tests whether a special gas mixture called heliox (helium and oxygen) can help control breathing during exercise. It is for healthy, active adults age 18–40 who exercise regularly and have no major health problems.
This study looks at how your body's muscles and nerves affect your breathing and temperature control during exercise. It may help us understand how exercise affects people differently.
This study looks at how temperature and humidity affect breathing in children aged 11 to 18, both with and without asthma. It takes place in a special room in Oshawa, Ontario where conditions are controlled. The goal is to learn more about what triggers asthma symptoms.
This study tests whether different breathing exercises can improve lung function and heart rate variability in healthy, inactive young adults. It may help you understand how simple breathing techniques can affect your breathing and heart health.
This study looks at how breathing problems that are not caused by a disease might affect physical fitness. If you are a healthy adult who often feels short of breath or sighs a lot, participating could help you understand your breathing and overall fitness better.
