To examine the relationship of nonspecific bronchial responsiveness to baseline pulmonary function, and to compare the reactivity in asthma and sinobronchitis, we measured the provocative concentration of methacholine, causing a 20% fall in forced expiratory volume in one second (PC20-FEV1) in 82 asthmatic patients, 54 patients with sinobronchial syndrome and 57 normal subjects. Log PC20-FEV1 was directly correlated to baseline pulmonary function. The strongest correlation was seen between log PC20-FEV1 and baseline FEV1 as a % of the predicted FEV1 (%FEV1), both in asthma (log PC20-FEV1 = 0.020 x %FEV1-1.988, r = 0.54, p &lt; 0.01) and in sinobronchial syndrome (log PC20-FEV1 = 0.025 x %FEV1-1.233, r = 0.64, p &lt; 0.01). From the regression equations, the mean value of PC20-FEV1 at 100% FEV1 was calculated as 1.02 and 18.5 mg/ml in asthmatic and sinobronchitic patients, respectively, and the value was 35.5 mg/ml in normal subjects. The PC20-FEV1 to %FEV1 relationship may be helpful to assess individually measured PC20-FEV1 values in patients with airway obstruction.
