Allergy to Cats: Current Perspectives and Therapeutic Options. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Transl Allergy
ABSTRACT Allergic rhinitis (AR) and asthma caused by cat dander have a highly variable prevalence across countries, which can reach 30% of the population in some regions. Cat allergens are widely distributed in the environment, making exposure nearly unavoidable, even in non‐cat‐owning households.

Bronchial Provocation Tests in Asthma [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Disease in Childhood, 1970
Bronchial provocation tests are necessary for precise aetiological diagnosis in bronchial asthma. This is illustrated by the results in 9,364 bronchial provocation tests compared with skin tests and nasal tests. The technique of bronchial provocation testing and its interpretation are described in detail.

Effect of mannitol dry powder challenge on exhaled nitric oxide in children. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
BackgroundFractional exhaled nitric oxide (FENO), a non-invasive marker of eosinophilic airway inflammation, is increasingly used for diagnostic and therapeutic decisions in adult and paediatric asthma. Standardized guidelines for the measurement of FENO

Work-related asthma

open access: yesJornal Brasileiro de Pneumologia, 2021
Work-related asthma (WRA) is highly prevalent in the adult population. WRA includes occupational asthma (OA), which is asthma caused by workplace exposures, and work-exacerbated asthma (WEA), also known as work-aggravated asthma, which is preexisting or ...

The sensitivity and specificity of the mannitol bronchial challenge test to identify asthma in different populations: a systematic review

open access: yesSwiss Medical Weekly, 2019
OBJECTIVE Asthma is associated with bronchial hyperresponsiveness, assessed by bronchial provocation tests such as the mannitol test. We aimed to assess the data on sensitivity and specificity of the mannitol test in diagnosing asthma.

Associations of AMP and adenosine induced dyspnea sensation to large and small airways dysfunction in asthma

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2019
Background Bronchial provocation is often used to confirm asthma. Dyspnea sensation, however, associates poorly with the evoked drop in FEV1. Provocation tests only use the large airways parameter FEV1, although dyspnea is associated with both large- and

When toothache results in asthma diagnosis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Occupational Medicine and Environmental Health, 2021
Local anesthetics (LA) have been used for a wide variety of procedures over the years due to their analgesic effect. These drugs have been seen to cause adverse events in the pediatric population, but an actual allergy must be in question.

Endogenous Ceramide 24:1 Constrains Th17‐Driven Neutrophilic Inflammation by Antagonizing EP2 Signaling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Cer24:1 levels are reduced in neutrophilic asthma and inversely correlate with disease severity and airway neutrophilia. Restoring Cer24:1 suppresses pathogenic Th17 differentiation by engaging EP2 on CD4+ T cells, thereby dampening the JAK2–STAT3–RORγt axis and reducing IL‐17 production.

Engineering Lipid Nanoparticles for Precision RNA Delivery: Design Principles, Targeting Strategies, and Clinical Prospects

open access: yesCancer Nexus, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) represent the most clinically advanced platform for RNA delivery and have enabled major breakthroughs in vaccines and gene therapies. However, their broader application is still limited by inefficient extrahepatic delivery, immunogenicity, and insufficient control over tissue‐ and cell‐specific targeting. This review

The Immunological Correlation With Adenoid Hypertrophy and Allergic Rhinitis in Children

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
The imbalance of Th1/Th2 and Th17/Treg cells in allergen and inflammatory responses might be associated with the development of adenoid hypertrophy, suggesting that allergic rhinitis maybe the risk factor of AH and providing a potential alternative explanation for adenoid hypertrophy pathogenesis.
