However, little information on the influence of TAC on lung function is available in these patients. This study aimed to determine relation of TAC with Spirometric markers in these patients.Methods: For this purpose, thirty sedentary adult males with mild to moderate asthma aged 40 ± 7 years were enrolled to study by targeted sampling. Fasting blood samples were collected with regard to measuring TAC of all patients. Anthropometric and spirometry markers (FVC, FEV1, FEV1/FVC) were also measured in all patients. Data from TAC and other variables were analyzed by Pearson correlation.Results: Data showed that TAC was positively correlated with FVC (P=0.036, r=0.48), FEV1 (P=0.002, r=0.73) and FEV1/FVc (P=0.001, r=0.77) in studied patients.Conclusion: Based on these data, it is concluded that TAC is a suitable marker for predict lung function and disease intensity in males with asthma.
