Management of Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Respiratory Journal, 1999
Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) is a common clinical manifestation of asthma, occurring in 70% to 80% of asthmatics. Evidence suggests that exercise and the ensuing bronchoconstriction do not contribute to a worsening of asthmatic inflammation.

Imitators of exercise-induced bronchoconstriction [PDF]

open access: yesAllergy, Asthma & Clinical Immunology, 2009
Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) is described by transient narrowing of the airways after exercise. It occurs in approximately 10% of the general population, while athletes may show a higher prevalence, especially in cold weather and ice rink ...

The Aftermath of Bronchoconstriction [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Engineering and Science in Medical Diagnostics and Therapy, 2019
Asthma is characterized by chronic airway inflammation, airway remodeling, and excessive constriction of the airway. Detailed investigation exploring inflammation and the role of immune cells has revealed a variety of possible mechanisms by which chronic inflammation drives asthma development.

Mechanisms Involved in the Stimulatory and Inhibitory Effects of 5-Hydroxytryptamine on Vagal Mechanosensitive Afferents in Rat Lung

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Mechanosensitive vagal afferents in the lung, rapidly and slowly adapting receptors (RARs and SARs, respectively), play an important role in eliciting the reflexes that regulate the normal airway function.

A proposal to account for the stimulus, the mechanism, and the mediators released in exercise-induced bronchoconstriction

open access: yesFrontiers in Allergy, 2023
Exercise induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) describes the transient narrowing of the airways that follows vigorous exercise. It commonly occurs in children and adults who have asthma and in elite athletes.

A Virulent Trueperella pyogenes Isolate, Which Causes Severe Bronchoconstriction in Porcine Precision-Cut Lung Slices

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
Trueperella pyogenes causes disease in cattle, sheep, goats and swine, and is involved occasionally in human disease worldwide. Most reports implicating T.

Aeroacoustic sound alteration in airway bronchoconstriction, represented by a constricted T-branch model

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2015
Lung sound is commonly analyzed when testing for lung abnormalities. However, the accuracy of this analysis is low and more information on sound generation and alteration is needed to improve the analysis quality.

Effect of exercise‐induced bronchoconstriction on the configuration of the maximal expiratory flow‐volume curve in adults with asthma

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2023
We determined the effect of exercise‐induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) on the shape of the maximal expiratory flow‐volume (MEFV) curve in asthmatic adults. The slope‐ratio index (SR) was used to quantitate the shape of the MEFV curve.
