Figure 2 Relationship between histamine responsiveness of isolated bronchi in vitro in terms of the potency pED50 (x-axis) and responsiveness to histamine in vivo in terms of the provocative concentration PC20FEV1 (panel A, log scale), % change of FEV1 after inhalation of salbutamol (panel B), baseline FEV1 %predicted (panel C), and the mass of bronchial specimens (panel D). Control patients are represented by open circles, patients with COPD by closed circles.
