Antioxidant vitamins E and C concentrations were estimated in plasma of asthmatics that were also simultaneously subjected to spirometry and matched with healthy controls showing significant changes in both the vitamin concentrations. Vitamin C showed strong correlation whereas vitamin E was not correlated with spirometry. %K Vitamins E and C %K Bronchial Asthma %K Spirometry %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=29700
