When manual disimpaction isn't enough: Case report and review of neostigmine's role in refractory constipation management

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

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

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).

Tuberculosis in Malta : a case for sputum induction [PDF]

, 2013
Sputum induction is a procedure used to help patients expectorate samples of sputum for laboratory analysis. It is a simple, safe and standardised procedure which may avoid the use of more invasive and potentially harmful interventions such as fibreoptic

Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction: new evidence in pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment

Asthma Research and Practice, 2015
The acute airway narrowing that occurs as a result of exercise is defined exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB). Most recent guidelines recommend distinguishing EIB with underlying clinical asthma (EIBA) from the occurrence of bronchial obstruction ...

Protectin D1 and maresin 1 attenuate airway hyperreactivity induced by IL‐13 in human isolated small bronchi

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Interleukin (IL)‐13 is implicated in airway hyperreactivity (AHR), a key feature of asthma. We explored the potential anti‐AHR activity of selected specialised pro‐resolving mediators (SPMs) in IL‐13‐induced AHR models, using human bronchial smooth muscle cells (BSMCs) and human isolated bronchi.

Endoscopically assessed mucus parameters in equine asthma: Relationship to clinical history and cytological findings data

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Mucus parameters are hallmark diagnostic features of equine asthma (EA). Objectives To investigate the relationship between mucus quantity score and mucus viscosity score with signalment, history, clinical findings and cytological parameters. Study Design Retrospective cross‐sectional study.
