Pulmonary Disease

Twenty-two young asthmatic volunteers were studied to assess the short-term effects of sulfur dioxide (SO₂) exposure under various conditions [12]. The baseline data in Table 12.30 were presented regarding bronchial reactivity to SO₂ stratified by lung function (as defined by forced expiratory volume / forced vital capacity [FEV₁/FVC]) at screening.
