Does bronchial hyperresponsiveness predict a diagnosis of cough variant asthma in adults with chronic cough: a cohort study [PDF]
Respiratory Research, 2021 Bronchial hyperresponsiveness is a typical, but non-specific feature of cough variant asthma (CVA). This study aimed to determine whether bronchial hyperresponsiveness may be considered as a predictor of CVA in non-smoking adults with chronic cough (CC).

RhoA, a Possible Target for Treatment of Airway Hyperresponsiveness in Bronchial Asthma
Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2010 .: Airway hyperresponsiveness to nonspecific stimuli is one of the characteristic features of allergic bronchial asthma. An elevated contractility of bronchial smooth muscle has been considered as one of the causes of the airway hyperresponsiveness.

Bronchial hyperresponsiveness [PDF]
Occupational Medicine, 2015 Bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) is often regarded as a 'hallmark' of asthma and bronchoprovocation testing is frequently performed to support a diagnosis of asthma. However, BHR is also found in a spectrum of other lung diseases and can be provoked by a variety of specific stimuli.To review the pathophysiology of BHR, discuss various methods of ...

Airway hyperresponsiveness in bronchial asthma: pathogenesis basics
Бюллетень сибирской медицины, 2002 Bronchial asthma has three main components: persistent bronchial inflammation, reversible bronchial obstruction and bronchial hyperresponsiveness to nonspecific triggers. Airway hyperresponsiveness is a complex phenomenon that develops upon the influence

The usefulness of bronchial challenge tests in the diagnosis of occupational asthma
Medycyna Pracy, 2018 Bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) is the individual ability to respond with bronchoconstriction to a variety of specific and nonspecific stimuli which do not cause these symptoms among healthy subjects.
