Air quality and temperature effects on exercise-induced bronchoconstriction.

Comprehensive Physiology, 2015
Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) is exaggerated constriction of the airways usually soon after cessation of exercise. This is most often a response to airway dehydration in the presence of airway inflammation in a person with a responsive ...

An official American Thoracic Society clinical practice guideline: exercise-induced bronchoconstriction.

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2013
BACKGROUND Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) describes acute airway narrowing that occurs as a result of exercise. EIB occurs in a substantial proportion of patients with asthma, but may also occur in individuals without known asthma.

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.

Perception of Bronchoconstriction in Elderly Asthmatics

Journal 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.

Effects of Ketotifen on in vitro bronchoconstriction

Clinical & Experimental Allergy, 1985
SummaryWe have studied the effects of Ketotifen [Ke](10−4M and 10−6M) on two in vitro models of bronchoconstriction: actively sensitized guinea‐pig trachea (GPT), and passively sensitized human bronchial muscle (HBM). Experiments were performed on matched pairs of tissues.

Effects of dietary induced weight loss on exercise‐induced bronchoconstriction in overweight and obese children

Pediatric Pulmonology, 2014
Previous studies showed that obesity in asthmatic children is associated with more severe exercise‐induced bronchoconstriction (EIB), compared with non‐obese asthmatic children.

Bronchoconstriction Reflex in Bronchial Asthma

1976
Our results suggest a presumably predominant role of the parasympathetic nervous system in the mechanism of human bronchial asthma. Bronchial reaction of the immediate type, induced by a specific antigen in allergic patients, can be partially but significantly prevented by a previous parasympathetic efferent blockade.

Testing for Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction

Immunology and Allergy Clinics of North America, 2018
Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) is a form of airway hyperresponsiveness that occurs with or without current symptoms of asthma. EIB is an indicator of active and treatable pathophysiology in persons with asthma. The objective documentation of EIB permits the identification of an individual who may be at risk during a recreational sporting ...

Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction: Pathogenesis

Current Allergy and Asthma Reports, 2005
There is still active debate on the acute mechanism of exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB). Although it is unlikely that vasoconstriction and hyperemia of the bronchial vasculature are essential events for EIB, it is likely that this vasculature enhances the airway response to dehydration and contributes to the pathogenesis of EIB, particularly ...
