PFT Results

I was just wondering if anyone can help interupt my results from a PFT.

           PRED                   Best            %PRED
FVC       3.46                    2.96                86
FEV1      2.93                    2.06                70
FEV1/FVC    86                  70
FEF 25-75    3.36                1.40                41

TLC             5.54                   4.76              86
RV               1.74                   1.56               90
RV/TLC         30                      33
FRNC N2       2.94                   2.59             88
VC                3.46                    3.20            92

DLCO             25.2                   22.5            89
DL ADJ            25.2                    22.5             89
DLCO/VA           4.51                  5.16             114

Are these results consistent with Asthma?
