Transformation of adrenal medullary chromaffin cells increases asthmatic susceptibility in pups from allergen-sensitized rats

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2012
Background Studies have shown that epinephrine release is impaired in patients with asthma. The pregnancy of female rats (dams) with asthma promotes in their pups the differentiation of adrenal medulla chromaffin cells (AMCCs) into sympathetic neurons ...

Vitamin A deficiency alters the pulmonary parenchymal elastic modulus and elastic fiber concentration in rats

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2005
Background Bronchial hyperreactivity is influenced by properties of the conducting airways and the surrounding pulmonary parenchyma, which is tethered to the conducting airways.

Use of continuous positive airway pressure reduces airway reactivity in adults with asthma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Asthma is characterised by airway hyperreactivity, which is primarily treated with β-adrenergic bronchodilators and anti-inflammatory agents. However, mechanical strain during breathing is an important modulator of airway responsiveness and we have ...

The Efficacy and Safety of Atenolol for Treatment of Infantile Hemangioma

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 153-162, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Infantile hemangiomas are the most common benign vascular tumours in children. Since the discovery of propranolol for infantile hemangiomas, its increasing side effect profile has prompted research into its beta‐1‐selective counterpart, atenolol.

Evaluation of Laryngeal Mask Airway Use in Pediatric Bronchoscopy: A 10‐Year Retrospective Study

open access: yesPediatric Pulmonology, Volume 61, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The effectiveness and safety of laryngeal mask airway (LMA) use in pediatric flexible bronchoscopy remains insufficiently documented, particularly regarding age‐specific outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate LMA compared to mask ventilation during pediatric flexible bronchoscopy, focusing on oxygenation parameters and complications

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

open access: yes, 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.

Exposures in Indoor Air Affecting Health

open access: yesAllergy, Volume 81, Issue 3, Page 700-719, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Indoor air quality (IAQ) is influenced by a wide range of chemical, biological and physical agents that can negatively impact physical, immunological and mental health. Adverse health effects depend on the type and concentration of pollutants, duration of exposure, and individual susceptibility.

The effects of e‐cigarette use on asthma severity in adult BALB/c mice

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 3, Page 1429-1440, 1 March 2026.
Abstract Electronic cigarettes (e‐cigarettes) are often perceived to be a less harmful alternative to tobacco cigarettes. Potentially due to this perception, they are used by people with pre‐existing respiratory conditions, such as asthma, who otherwise would not smoke. Despite this, there are few studies exploring the health effects of e‐cigarette use
