- 1823, John Mason Good, The Study of Medicine[1], volume 1, page 380:
- […] so in asthma, where there is no expuition, or the expuition does not appear till the paroxysm is subsiding, we ought, I think, in fair reason, rather to acknowledge or inacquaintance with the actual cause than to place our faith in one that has so little to support it.
