Neurally mediated airway constriction in human and other species: a comparative study using precision-cut lung slices (PCLS). [PDF]
The peripheral airway innervation of the lower respiratory tract of mammals is not completely functionally characterized. Recently, we have shown in rats that precision-cut lung slices (PCLS) respond to electric field stimulation (EFS) and provide a ...

Onset of bronchodilation with fluticasone/formoterol combination versus fluticasone/salmeterol in an open-label, randomized study [PDF]
Introduction: The inhaled corticosteroid, fluticasone propionate (fluticasone), and the long-acting beta2-agonist, formoterol fumarate (formoterol), have been combined in a single aerosol inhaler (fluticasone/formoterol).

Born high, born fast: Does highland birth confer a pulmonary advantage for sea level endurance?
Abstract Less than 7% of the world's population live at an altitude above 1500 m. Yet, as many as 67% of medalists in the 2020 men's and women's Olympic marathon, and 100% of medalists in the 2020 men's and women's Olympic 5000 m track race may have been born or raised above this otherwise rare threshold.

Acute bronchoconstriction is the leading cause of asthmatic sudden death following allergen exposure. The authors show that the systemic increase of LPA following inhaled allergen or bradykinin challenge activates the carotid bodies through TRPV1 and LPA-

Asthma in elite athletes: Who cares? [PDF]
Asthma or exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) is highly prevalent in athletes and if untreated has the potential to impact on their health and performance.

Treatment of Bronchoconstriction
The treatment for bronchoconstriction should be aimed at the treatment of bronchoedema, bronchospasm, hypersecretion of mucous and ventilation-perfusion imbalance. Stimulation of β-adrenergic receptors and blockade of α-adrenergic receptors and cholinergic receptors can be considered as the therapeutic approach to bronchoconstriction, and the ...

Abstract Cold temperatures (<−15°C) increase exercise‐induced bronchoconstriction (EIB), while hypoxic‐induced hyperventilation exacerbates respiratory muscle fatigue for a given exercising task. This study aimed to determine the individual and combined effects of cold and normobaric hypoxia on the respiratory system responses to high‐intensity ...

Comparable reductions in hyperpnoea-induced bronchoconstriction and markers of airway inflammation after supplementation with 6·2 and 3·1 g/d of long-chain n-3 PUFA in adults with asthma [PDF]
Although high dose n-3 PUFA supplementation reduces exercise- and hyperpnoea-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB/HIB), there are concurrent issues with cost, compliance and gastrointestinal discomfort. It is thus pertinent to establish the efficacy of lower

Self-reported Symptoms after Induced and Inhibited Bronchoconstriction in Athletes
Purpose A change in the perception of respiratory symptoms after treatment with inhaled beta2 agonists is often used to aid diagnosis of exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB).

ABSTRACT Hyperpolarized (HP) gas pulmonary MR ventilation images are typically quantified using ventilation defect percent (VDP); however, the test‐retest variability of VDP has not been systematically established in multi‐center trials. Herein, we perform a systematic review of the test‐retest literature on the variability of VDP, and similar metrics,
