THE PATHOLOGY OF BRONCHIAL ASTHMA [PDF]
INTRODUCTION In a clinical study of a certain type of food asthma, published nearly ten years ago, 1 one of us expressed the conception that bronchial asthma is a manifestation of allergy in the human, in the following concluding sentences: "In most cases of bronchial asthma the causative factor lies in the allergic reactibility of the individual ...

Abstract Aim Dipeptidyl peptidase‐1 (DPP‐1) inhibitors have been studied for the treatment of neutrophil‐mediated inflammatory diseases including bronchiectasis, bronchial asthma and cystic fibrosis. This study evaluated the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety and tolerability of DPP‐1 inhibitor HSK31858 in healthy Chinese volunteers.

Intelligent Risk Alarm for Asthma Patients using Artificial Neural Networks [PDF]
Asthma is a chronic disease of the airways of the lungs. It results in inflammation and narrowing of the respiratory passages, which prevents air flow into the airways and leads to frequent bouts of shortness of breath with wheezing accompanied by coughing and phlegm after exposure to inhalation of substances that provoke allergic reactions or ...

ABSTRACT The rise in chronic lung diseases globally and the corresponding lag in drug discovery in this field highlights the need for In Vitro models closely mimicking In Vivo lung tissue. Efforts to date have largely focused on In Vitro coculture models, often neglecting the pulmonary vasculature's role in lung physiology and lacking perfusability. To

Source-specific contributions of particulate matter to asthma-related pediatric emergency department utilization [PDF]
Few studies have linked specific sources of ambient particulate matter smaller than 2.5 $\mu$m (PM2.5) and asthma. In this study, we estimated the contributions of specific sources to PM2.5 and examined their association with daily asthma hospital utilization in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA.
