Respiratory syncytial virus infection and bronchial hyperreactivity in children up to two years of age in correlation with atopy [PDF]

Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2016
Background/Aim. Bronchiolitis in early childhood caused by respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is considered to be important risk factor of the recurrent wheezing and asthma development.

Bronchial thermoplasty : a new therapeutic option for the treatment of severe, uncontrolled asthma in adults [PDF]

, 2014
Bronchial thermoplasty is a young yet promising treatment for severe asthma whose benefit for long-term asthma control outweighs the short-term risk of deterioration and hospitalisation in the days following the treatment.

Prevention of Antigen-Induced Bronchial Hyperreactivity and Airway Inflammation in Sensitized Guinea-Pigs by Tacrolimus

Mediators of Inflammation, 1999
We examined the effect of the immunosuppressive agent, tacrolimus (FK506), on antigen-induced bronchial hyperreactivity to acetylcholine and leukocyte infiltration into the airways of ovalbumin-challenged guinea-pigs.

Protective effect of leukotriene receptor antagonist montelukast on smoking-induced lung injury in Wistar rats. [PDF]

, 2003
Increased activation of alveolar macrophage, neutrophil and mast cell has been proven in cigarette smoking (CS)-related lung disorders (CSLD). An increased production of cysteinyl-leukotrienes (LTs), which are mediators secreted from the mentioned cells,

Triphala (PADMA) extract alleviates bronchial hyperreactivity in a mouse model through liver and spleen immune modulation and increased anti-oxidative effects

Therapeutic Advances in Respiratory Disease, 2012
Objectives: Triphala (TRP), a herbal extract from Tibetan medicine, has been shown to affect lymphocytes and natural killer T (NKT) cell function. We hypothesize that TRP could ameliorate bronchial hyperreactivity through immune-cell modulations. Methods:

Nasal histamine responses in nonallergic rhinitis with eosinophilic syndrome [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Nonallergic rhinitis with eosinophilic syndrome (NARES) is persistent, without atopy, but with ≥25% nasal eosinophilia. Hypereosinophilia seems to contribute to nasal mucosa dysfunction.

Allergic asthma and bronchial hyperreactivity [PDF]

, 1993
Asthma may effect 5-10% of the population in Western countries and is probably underdiagnosed (Mortagy et al., 1986). Despite improved possibilities for therapy and increased drug use morbidity and mortality are still increasing (Page, 1993).

Influence of sensitization and allergen provocation procedures on the development of allergen-induced bronchial hyperreactivity in conscious, unrestrained guinea-pigs

Mediators of Inflammation, 1995
The effects of different sensitization and allergen provocation regimens on the development of allergen-induced bronchial hyperreactivity (BHR) to histamine were investigated in conscious, unrestrained guinea-pigs.

高齢者気管支喘息における気道過敏性と温泉療法 [PDF]

, 2001
Clinical effects of spa therapy were examined in 150 patients with asthma in relation tobronchial hyperresponsiveness and patient age. 1. The efficacy rate of spa therapy was larger as the patient age was higher: the rate was 73.3% in patients under age ...
