Abstract

70 patients (45 males and 28 females) aged between 30 to 70 year old suffering with bronchial asthma and control or normal group of 70 volunteers who did not have any respiratory diseases were studied. The mean value of BMI in bronchial asthma patients was 24.5 (SD±0.62), in control group-7 was 26.4 (SD±I 0.65) ‘t’ test value was 17.2 (p <0.0) p value was highly significant. Mean value of FEV1, in bronchial asthma patients was 44.9 (SD±0.043) and in control group it 93, 4 (SD±1.37), ‘t ‘ test was 27.9 (p<0.01) the p value was highly significant. The mean value of serum magnesium in bronchical asthma patients was 1.66 (SD±0.1) and in control group it was 2.27 (SD± 0.02) ‘t’ test was 35.62 (p<0.00) this study of comparison between BMI, FEV1 and S. magnesium will be certainly helpful to physician, chest-medicine, specialist to predict or explore other values by knowing any one value of studied parameter. So that bronchial asthma can be treated efficiently because bronchial asthma is an idiopathic and allergic disease.
