Bronchodilatory and B-adrenergic effects of methanolic and aqueous extracts of Althaea root on isolated tracheobronchial smooth rat muscle

open access: yesAdvanced Biomedical Research, 2015
Background: The smooth muscle contractions of the tracheobronchial airways are mediated through the balance of adrenergic, cholinergic and peptidergic nervous mechanisms.

Analysis of vocal breath sounds before and after administering Bronchodilator in Asthmatic patients [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Asthma is one of the chronic inflammatory diseases of the airways, which causes chest tightness, wheezing, breathlessness, and cough. Spirometry is an effort-dependent test used to monitor and diagnose lung conditions like Asthma. Vocal breath sound (VBS) based analysis can be an alternative to spirometry as VBS characteristics change depending on the ...

Is slide‐based or video‐based eLearning better at achieving behavioural change in bronchiolitis management? A cluster‐based randomised control trial

open access: yesJournal of Paediatrics and Child Health, Volume 58, Issue 12, Page 2177-2182, December 2022., 2022
Aim This cluster‐based randomised control trial examines the comparative efficacy of two eLearning programs that teach clinicians evidence‐based bronchiolitis management for children less than 12 months of age. Methods Six hospitals, matched for size, were randomly allocated to either video‐based (arm A) or slide‐based (arm B) eLearning programs.

Regional lung response to bronchodilator reversibility testing determined by electrical impedance tomography in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology - Lung cellular and Molecular Physiology, 2016
Patients with obstructive lung diseases commonly undergo bronchodilator reversibility testing during examination of their pulmonary function by spirometry. A positive response is defined by an increase in forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1). FEV1 is a

Something Is Changing in Viral Infant Bronchiolitis Approach

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2022
Acute Viral Bronchiolitis is one of the leading causes of hospitalization in the first 12–24 months of life. International guidelines on the management of bronchiolitis broadly agree in recommending a minimal therapeutic approach, not recommending the ...

Analysis of Asthma-Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Overlap Syndrome Defined on the Basis of Bronchodilator Response and Degree of Emphysema.

open access: yesAnnals of the American Thoracic Society, 2016
RATIONALE Despite the increasing recognition of asthma-chronic obstructive pulmonary disease overlap syndrome (ACOS) as a clinical entity, it remains poorly characterized due to a lack of agreement on its definition and diagnostic criteria.

Epidemiology, genetics, and subtyping of preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm) in COPDGene. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BackgroundPreserved Ratio Impaired Spirometry (PRISm), defined as a reduced FEV1 in the setting of a preserved FEV1/FVC ratio, is highly prevalent and is associated with increased respiratory symptoms, systemic inflammation, and mortality.
