Review-criteria version: 1.0

Clinical papers were not read directly; existing review summaries were checked. No new clinical-literature search was performed. Unverified does not mean that research is absent or that there is no effect.

## Assessment scope

- Population: The population comprises asthmatic participants with documented exercise-induced bronchoconstriction. Adults and mixed child/adolescent populations remain separate, with gaps in study-specific diagnosis, selection, baseline lung function and age composition retained. Findings are not automatically generalized to all people with asthma.
- Ingredient, formulation and route: The intervention is a single-ingredient oral ascorbic acid supplement. Feedstock, manufacturing process, country and study-specific salt, tablet/capsule, excipients and actual content remain unverified. Foods, combinations and intravenous infusion are not automatically included.
- Dose: The original scope is single 500 mg or 2 g doses, or 1500 mg/day for 2 weeks. Study-specific timing, products, actual exposure, adherence and some dose mappings remain unverified. These are not converted into an identical dose, optimal dose, cumulative dose or individual dosing guidance.
- Comparator: The comparator is matched crossover placebo. Usual-diet observations are not a separate randomized arm, and crossover periods from one person are not additional participants. Placebo composition, maintained therapy, rescue medication, diet and pre-exercise rules remain unverified in detail.
- Measured outcome: The physiological endpoint is maximum post-exercise FEV1 decline (% or L). Maximum values remain distinct from specific time points and units; prespecified primary hierarchy, detailed measurements and within-person estimation remain unverified. Symptoms, rescue medication, exacerbations and hospitalization are separate outcomes.
- Duration: Exposure is a single pre-challenge dose or 2-week crossover periods. The R01 citation’s 2 weeks per period and 1-week washout are not assigned to all other studies. Study-specific order, carryover/period effects and effects beyond the observation periods remain unverified.
- Questions outside this scope: The selected question concerns single-ingredient oral vitamin C and post-exercise lung function in documented exercise-induced bronchoconstriction and asthma. It is not extended to routine asthma control, prevention of exacerbations/hospitalization, inhaler replacement, training adaptation or muscle soreness.; The existing C·54 points·Caution, stored assessment values, Korean and English descriptions and evidence date 2026-09-07 are retained. Historical wording about independent cross-checks does not establish current external reading, regrading or official assessment.; The manuscript’s 3 crossover trials totaling 40 people is a stored description of synthesis size. It is not a new participant sum or certification of unique trials, participants or safety denominators. Original trials and reviews are not added together, and crossover periods are not additional people.; The existing 6.5 percentage points is a recorded simple mean-difference calculation. It is not promoted to a within-person effect, adjusted estimate, paired 95% CI or clinical success rate, and no new difference or interval is calculated.; Maximum percentage decline and 5-minute decline in litres, unspecified ± and explicitly recorded SE, and adults and mixed child/adolescent populations remain distinct. Units, ages and time points are not converted or pooled, and unverified dispersion is not assumed.; The 9 responders remain distinct from outcomes for all 20 participants. No new response rate is calculated, and selected-responder follow-up is not converted into a whole-cohort effect or new independent randomized replication.; The meta-analysis and general-asthma review differ in scope and are not new original trials. Original inclusion, extraction, within-person variance, shared-trial mapping, registrations, protocols and official risk/certainty assessments remain unverified.; Existing caution about diarrhea, gastrointestinal discomfort, stone risk, kidney disease and iron overload with high oral doses is retained. Limited event records are not converted into no harms, long-term safety or confirmed contraindications; no new incidence rate, causality or individual dosing guidance is created.

- Conditions for verification: Original records on Funding, manufacturing/product support, employee authors and conflicts of interest must link to the same question, route, population, comparison, endpoint, units, timing and within-person analysis, distinguishing recorded information from gaps.
- Why this condition is needed: Material on Funding, manufacturing/product support, employee authors and conflicts of interest is needed to connect the selected exercise-challenge question to its oral formulation, population, crossover comparison, units, timing, within-person analysis, denominators, precision and harms.
- Application exceptions: Physiological lung-function signals remain separate from routine asthma control, exacerbations, hospitalization and inhaler replacement. Crossover periods are not additional people, and selected-responder extensions are not independent trials. Units, ages and time points are not mixed; no new effects, intervals, rates, participant totals, cumulative doses or individual dosing guidance are created.
- Remaining uncertainty: Gaps in original diagnosis, challenge, units, timing, within-person variance, denominators, plans, inclusion/extraction, support and harms remain. Small physiological signals are not converted into established clinical prevention, a precise null effect, equivalence or overall safety.

## What the statuses mean

- Partly verified: Partial information from the stored summary is linked; detailed originals and content review remain incomplete.
- Unverified: Required details cannot be established within the preserved scope. This does not establish absence of effects or studies, or safety.
- Review incomplete: Review of existing content remains incomplete.
- Met: This state is used only within the relevant conditions after material verification and content review. It was not automatically assigned in this work.
- Not reported: Unreported within material actually read. Unread external material is not relabeled as unreported.
- Inaccessible: This means actual access failure. External access was not attempted in this work, so this state was not assigned.
- Not applicable: Used only with an application exception and reason based on the question scope.
- Conflicting data: This requires actual comparison of materials; no new conflict judgment was made in this work.
- Insufficient evidence for the conditions: This indicates gaps in additional material for the selected conditions. Unread material as a whole is not converted into an efficacy grade.
