Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Interactions Between Anti‐Asthma Drugs and Medicinal Plants: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesPhytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Asthma affects 260–300 million people worldwide. About 20%–35% of patients use medicinal plants with their asthma medication, often without telling their clinicians. Disclosure rates are low; up to 42% of asthma outpatients use herbal products, with no records in their charts.

The effect of oral corticosteroids on bronchodilator responses in COPD [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
There have been suggestions that corticosteroid treatment might improve bronchodilator responses in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We have studied bronchodilator responses to salbutamol and to oxitropium bromide in 20 patients with stable ...

High‐Flow Nasal Oxygen in Early Home Pulmonary Rehabilitation for Exertional Hypoxaemia: A Pilot Randomised Feasibility Trial

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
Summary This pilot randomised feasibility trial evaluated the feasibility and acceptability of early, intensive home‐based pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) and high‐flow nasal oxygen (HFO) during exercise in patients with exertional hypoxaemia post‐hospitalisation. Early home‐based PR was feasible and safe.

Spirometry and bronchodilator test

open access: yes, 2018
Spirometry is a physiological test for assessing the functional aspect of the lungs using an objective indicator to measure the maximum amount of air that a patient can inhale and exhale. Acceptable spirometry testing needs to be conducted three times by

Biomarkers of Pre‐COPD Lung Function Trajectories in Middle Age: A Prospective Study From 1st to 6th Decade

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
Identifying impaired lifetime lung function trajectories is key to identifying the preclinical phase of COPD (Pre‐COPD) or prognosis of COPD. We have identified that some circulating established COPD biomarkers differ across ‘pre‐COPD’ lung function trajectories, suggesting that some COPD‐specific pathobiological processes, including inflammation, are ...

Clinical Outcomes and Acute Exacerbation Incidence in Combined Pulmonary Fibrosis and Emphysema

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
This multicentre prospective study of 1016 patients demonstrated that CPFE, defined as ≥ 5% emphysema on visual CT assessment, identified a high‐risk phenotype with significantly worse 5‐year survival compared to non‐CPFE IIP patients (51.4% vs. 63.1%) and COPD patients (51.4% vs. 84.0%) and higher acute exacerbation incidence, validating international

Three Spirometry‐Based At‐Risk Phenotypes Predict Incident Airflow Limitation: A Population‐Based Study

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
Analysing the population‐based KORA and SHIP studies, three spirometric at‐risk subtypes (early airflow limitation, PRISm, and small airway dysfunction) were consistently associated with incident airflow limitation. Their combination in a conceptual framework identified most future cases with high negative predictive value, suggesting potential for ...
