Perception of Bronchoconstriction in Elderly Asthmatics

open access: yesJournal of Asthma, 2001
The impaired perception of bronchoconstriction in asthmatic patients may increase the risk of severe exacerbation. To characterize the perception of bronchoconstriction in elderly asthma patients, we compared the perception in older patients with that of younger patients.

Exercise-induced Bronchoconstriction

Annals of the American Thoracic Society, 2014
The invitation by the editor, Rafeul Alam, to guest edit this issue on exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) allowed me to bring together investigators from physiology to cellular biology of EIB. The preface contains information on how some of the contributors came together and identifies some conferences that helped broaden the scientific ...

Bronchoconstriction in Helminthic Infection

International Archives of Allergy and Immunology, 2009
In order to determine whether infection by helminthic parasites can be associated with a state of bronchoconstriction, we evaluated the response to the inhalation of a bronchodilator before and after long-term antihelminthic treatment of children in a urban slum of Caracas, Venezuela.

Perception of Bronchoconstriction in Chronic Asthma

Journal of Asthma, 1992
Twenty-nine asthmatic children were studied to assess their ability to detect the severity of their bronchoconstriction. First (STEP 0): each child was asked if he "felt asthma," inviting him to give a self-estimated obstruction score (SEOS) from 0 (no asthma) to 3 (severe asthma) and a baseline FEV1 was recorded.

Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction

Drugs, 2002
Exercise-induced asthma, or more appropriately, exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB), occurs in 80 to 90% of individuals with asthma and in approximately 11% of the general population without asthma. EIB is characterised by post-exercise airways obstruction resulting in reductions in forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV(1)) of greater than ...

The Homeostatic Rôle of Bronchoconstriction

Respiration, 2001
This article argues in favour of the hypothesis that the homeostatic rôles of bronchoconstriction are to retract the airway tree during expiration, and to assist in the expulsion of mucus from peripheral airways by increasing the velocity of outgoing air.

Pathophysiology of Asthmatic Bronchoconstriction

CHEST Journal, 1982
T he major resistance airways of human subjects are innervated by at least three different types of autonomic nerves. The specific physiologic “advantage” to this homeostatic system for regulation of bronchomotor tone is uncertain; however, some degree of bronchomotor tone results from parasympathetic innervation in all normal individuals.
