Frontiers in Physiology, 2017 Deep inspiration (DI) dilates normal airway precontracted with methacholine. The fact that this effect is diminished or absent in asthma could be explained by the presence of bronchial inflammation.

Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction in Children
Frontiers in Medicine, 2022 Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) is a transient airflow obstruction, typically 5–15 min after physical activity. The pathophysiology of EIB is related to the thermal and osmotic changes of the bronchial mucosa, which cause the release of ...

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.In total, 5084 patients from Swedish registries with both heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) were included. Confounding was handled by overlap weighting based on propensity scores for beta‐blocker use. Patients were followed up for 5 years, or until death, emigration from Sweden or

Allergy, Asthma & Clinical Immunology, 2018 Background Sputum induction with hypertonic saline in obstructive airway diseases is generally safe. However, saline induces bronchoconstriction in some patients despite pre-medication with Salbutamol. Our objectives were to investigate the predictors of

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Severe refractory constipation can lead to fecal retention requiring hospitalization, nasogastric cleanout, or manual disimpaction, and in some cases, surgery. Neostigmine, a reversible acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, is commonly used for pseudo‐obstruction but rarely for refractory constipation. Here, we report a 21‐year‐old male with chronic

Ventilation defect formation in healthy and asthma subjects is determined by lung inflation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Imaging studies have demonstrated that ventilation during bronchoconstriction in subjects with asthma is patchy with large ventilation defective areas (Vdefs).

Polyphenolic Activation of Basophils Explains Alcohol Hypersensitivity in AERD
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.The mechanism behind alcohol sensitivity in AERD has not been previously characterized. This study demonstrates the activation of basophils in patients with CRSwNP and AERD by polyphenolic compounds, but not ethanol. Since these compounds can be found in alcoholic beverages in similar frequencies by which they trigger symptoms, this research provides a

Regular treatment with formoterol for chronic asthma: serious adverse events [PDF]
, 2012 Epidemiological evidence has suggested a link between beta(2)-agonists and increases in asthma mortality. There has been much debate about possible causal links for this association, and whether regular (daily) long-acting beta2-agonists are safe ...

Allergy, EarlyView.In this two‐phase study, school‐aged children were classified as at risk or no‐risk based on severe attacks during one‐year follow‐up. Four types of prediction models were developed. Salivary bacteria and serum inflammatory markers, while informative alone, complement past asthma attacks in predicting future attack risk.
