Abstract_ Background Recently it has been shown that increasing body mass index BMI in asthma is associated with reduced exhaled NO. Our objective in this study was to determine if the BMI-related changes in exhaled NO differ across asthmatics and controls and to determine if these changes are related to increased airway oxidative stress and systemic levels of leptin and adiponectin. Methods Observational study of the association of BMI .
