Trends in worldwide asthma prevalence

European Respiratory Journal, 2020
This review of trends in worldwide asthma prevalence starts with defining how asthma prevalence is measured in populations and how it is analysed. Four population studies of asthma across at least two regions are described: European Community Respiratory

An Optoelectrically Switched, Dual‐Mode Neuromorphic Sensor for Transient and Accumulative Gas Detection

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A transistor‐type carbon nanotube gas sensor with dual‐mode detection capability has been proposed. By simply adjusting the gate voltage and UV illumination, this sensor enables both real‐time detection and accumulation‐based sensing of toxic gases within a single device, providing a compact and adaptable platform for environmental monitoring ...

Psychological interventions in asthma [PDF]

, 2015
Asthma is a multifactorial chronic respiratory disease characterised by recurrent episodes of airway obstruction. The current management of asthma focuses principally on pharmacological treatments, which have a strong evidence base underlying their use ...

Asthma

Allergy, Asthma & Clinical Immunology
Abstract Asthma is one of the most common respiratory disorders in Canada, however, many Canadians with asthma remain poorly controlled. In most patients, control can be achieved through appropriate therapy, including: inhaled corticosteroids (ICS), combination ICS/long-acting beta2-agonists (LABA), “triple therapy” with ICS/LABA/long-acting ...

Printing Nacre‐Mimetic MXene‐Based E‐Textile Devices for Sensing and Breathing‐Pattern Recognition Using Machine Learning

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a Ti3C2Tx MXene/WPU nacre‐mimetic nanomaterial as a printable ink for direct‐write printing onto textiles‐based sensors. The resulting wearable device demonstrates high sensitivity, biocompatibility, and mechanical strength. Furthermore, NFC‐enabled humidity sensor produces time‐series data, which informs a machine learning ...

Profiling of H3K27Ac Reveals the Influence of Asthma on the Epigenome of the Airway Epithelium

Frontiers in Genetics, 2020
BackgroundAsthma is a chronic airway disease driven by complex genetic–environmental interactions. The role of epigenetic modifications in bronchial epithelial cells (BECs) in asthma is poorly understood.MethodsWe piloted genome-wide profiling of the ...

In utero tobacco smoke exposure, DNA methylation, and asthma in Latino children. [PDF]

, 2019
BackgroundMaternal smoking during pregnancy is a risk factor for chronic disease later in life and has been associated with variability of DNA methylation at specific cytosine-phosphate-guanine (CpG) loci.

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...

Latino Asthma Epidemic [PDF]

, 2009
Chicago is known for many things, our great food and architecture. Unfortunately, we are also known for being an epi-center for asthma. We lead the Nation in asthma deaths, emergency room visits and hospitalizations.
