Metabolic Acidosis Improves Airway Conductance in Patients with Asthma

The objective was to investigate whether acute metabolic acidosis could cause bronchodilation in patients with asthma. Twelve patients with asthma (8 females, mean age 39 (± SD 12) years, forced expiratory volume in 1 second [FEV1] 93 [±9] % predicted, PC20 1.9 (±1.0) mg/mL) participated in a double...
