Abstract
Hypophosphatemia is a disorder often characterized by muscle weakness (1). In studies of cardiac performance in hypophos-phatemic patients, O’Connor (2) found that muscle contractility could be increased by phosphate repletion. Similar results were obtained by Fuller (3) in dogs fed a phosphorus deficient diet. Studies in adult patients (4,5,6) have shown that pulmonary muscle weakness may also be associated with hypophosphatemia, although the decrease in muscle force has not been measured. We therefore investigated the effects of a dietary — induced phosphorus depletion on pulmonary muscle force in dogs.
