Many neuropeptides have recently been identified in human and animal airways. These peptides have potent effects on airway caliber, blood vessels, and secretions, raising the possibility that they may be involved in airway diseases such as asthma. Vasoactive intestinal peptide and peptide histidine methionine are potent bronchodilators and may be ...

Asthma commonly complicates gestation and is present in approximately 1 per cent of pregnant women. More frequent is the concern on the part of asthmatic women as to the effect of a future pregnancy on respiratory symptoms. This article discusses the physiologic respiratory alterations in pregnancy, the pathophysiology of asthma, the course of asthma ...

The Lancet, 2013
Asthma is a heterogeneous group of conditions that result in recurrent, reversible bronchial obstruction. Although the disease can start at any age, the first symptoms occur during childhood in most cases. Asthma has a strong genetic component, and genome-wide association studies have identified variations in several genes that slightly increase the ...

Farm-like indoor microbiota in non-farm homes protects children from asthma development
Nature Network Boston, 2019Asthma prevalence has increased in epidemic proportions with urbanization, but growing up on traditional farms offers protection even today1. The asthma-protective effect of farms appears to be associated with rich home dust microbiota2,3, which could be

Asthmatics respond with reversible airway narrowing when stimulated in ways that have no effect on non‐asthmatic persons. Studies conducted at the turn of this century established that the pathology present in the airways of asthmatics is based on the inflammatory process.

Asthma includes several different phenotypic disorders. The complexity of defining asthma is addressed. There is potential for both under- and overdiagnosis of asthma. Respiratory disorders frequently misdiagnosed as asthma, essentially pseudo-asthmas, need to be recognized and not treated as asthma.

Southern Medical Journal, 2003
This article is a comprehensive review of asthma that discusses risk factors, diagnosis, and management. Guidelines for choosing appropriate asthma therapy are discussed. Key aspects of patient education are described. Reasons for the failure of asthma therapy with potential remedies are presented. Regular follow-up for good asthma care is emphasized.
