Influence of Environmental Pollution on Basophil Reactivity to Birch Pollen Allergens in Atopic and Non‐Atopic Subjects

Allergy, EarlyView.
Birch pollen and PM10 are key determinants of clinical symptoms, particularly in asthma. Allergic people react stronger to the pollen collected in the highly polluted area than in the less polluted areas. When evaluating the effectiveness of allergen immunotherapy, it is essential to consider not only pollen concentrations but also levels of air ...

Corticosteroid-Sparing Effect of Chromoglycate Sodium and Nedocromil

Mediators of Inflammation, 1994
The most appropiate management for bronchial asthma is the control of airway inflammation. Corticosteroids are the most effective anti-inflammatory drugs available, but they have a number of side effects; most of these are dose-dependent.

Investigation and Analysis of the Current Status of Bronchial Provocation Testing in Guangdong Province [PDF]

Zhongguo quanke yixue
Background The prevalence of bronchial asthma has been rising annually, yet primary healthcare institutions still face difficulties in early diagnosis and treatment. Bronchial provocation test (BPT) is an important diagnostic tool with significant value.

Case of seropositive allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis in a 10-year-old girl without previously documented asthma [PDF]

Korean Journal of Pediatrics, 2015
Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a hypersensitivity lung disease due to bronchial colonization of Aspergillus fumigatus that occurs in susceptible patients with asthma or cystic fibrosis. A 10-year-old girl was referred to the Department

Nomenclature on Immune‐Mediated Drug Reactions: An EAACI Position Paper

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the past several decades, there have been significant advances in our understanding of both immunological and pharmacological mechanisms of adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Immune‐mediated drug reactions (IMDRs) represent a small proportion of ADRs and are caused by a pathological activation of the immune system or inflammatory pathways ...

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

, 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.

Protective effect of bronchial challenge with hypertonic saline on nocturnal asthma

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2008
Inhalation of hypertonic saline (HS) causes bronchoconstriction in asthmatic subjects. Repeated inhalation of HS leads to substantially reduced bronchoconstriction, known as the refractory period.

Understanding the Type 2 Immunity: An Evolving View Beyond Allergic Diseases

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Type 2 (T2) immunity is classically associated with defense against helminths and environmental threats, from a physiological perspective, and with allergies and eosinophilic inflammatory diseases, in a pathological sense. However, growing evidence reveals that T2 pathways also support other essential homeostatic functions, including tissue ...

The Origins of Allergy: An Outside‐In, Bioenergetic Hypothesis

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Allergic disease has risen too rapidly for inherited susceptibility to explain it, and the risk variants so far reported lie in the epithelial barrier and in type‐2 immunity. We propose a five‐layer model in which epithelial barrier and bioenergetic dysfunction may precede and promote type‐2 immune deviation rather than arise solely as its ...
