Dizziness, Lower Limb Weakness, and Falls in COPD: A Prospective Longitudinal Pilot Study Using Monthly Home Diaries

Physiotherapy Research International, Volume 31, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Falls affect approximately half of individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and are associated with hospitalization, accelerated functional decline, and early institutionalization. Existing evidence suggests that single‐visit assessments have limited and inconsistent ability to predict the future ...

A comparative study of bronchodilator response: utilizing pre-bronchodilator versus predicted normal values

A positive bronchodilator response has been defined as a 12% increase in the forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV ) or forced vital capacity (FVC) from their respective pre-bronchodilator values, combined with at least a 0.2 L absolute change ...

Ultra‐Processed Food Consumption and Childhood Allergic Diseases: Increased Risk of Asthma Onset in the SENDO Project

Allergy, Volume 81, Issue 10, Page 3504-3514, October 2026.
The SENDO cohort study (2015–2024) prospectively analyzed the impact of ultra‐processed food (UPF) consumption on asthma and atopy in 1,546 Spanish children. Higher UPF intake (NOVA 4 classification) was significantly associated with an increased risk of asthma but not atopy, atopic dermatitis, neumoallergen sensitation, food allergy over five years ...

Current and potential improvements in the treatment of asthma from increased understanding of airway pathophysiology

Allergology International, 2002
The mainstay of chronic asthma management consists of using pharmacological agents that induce bronchodilatation, such as short-acting β-adrenergic receptor agonists (bronchodilators or relievers), and that control the chronic inflammatory process, such ...

Emerging Paediatric Uses of Dupilumab Beyond Approvals

Clinical &Experimental Allergy, Volume 56, Issue 10, Page 1162-1176, October 2026.
Dupilumab, through IL‐4Rα blockade, shows promising efficacy beyond approved indications in paediatric diseases driven by T2 inflammation. Emerging evidence—mainly from small studies—supports improvements in disease severity and quality of life, highlighting its potential as a targeted, steroid‐sparing therapy while underscoring the need for ...

A Pilot Placebo‐Controlled Randomized Trial of Repeated High‐Dose Intravenous Magnesium Sulphate and High‐Dose Nebulized Budesonide for Severe Asthma in the Paediatric Emergency Department

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, Volume 62, Issue 10, Page 1948-1958, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Determine if high‐dose intravenous magnesium with/without nebulized budesonide for children with acute severe asthma is safe and reduces time to medical readiness for discharge compared to standard intravenous magnesium. Methods Either 2 doses of intravenous magnesium or 1 dose and placebo, each with/without high‐dose nebulized ...

An acute bronchodilator test with tiotropium or salmeterol does not allow a subdivision of patients according to responses

, 2005
The possibility that individual chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients respond better to either tiotropium or salmeterol has been suggested and an acute bronchodilator test might help to guide the choice of therapy.

Flow and volume response to bronchodilator in patients with COPD

, 2018
The response to a bronchodilator is considered as crucial to diagnose COPD and to distinguish COPD from asthma. COPD is characterized by progressive airflow obstruction that is only partly reversible, whereas asthma is associated with airflow obstruction

Exploring the possibility of a predictable precision therapy of COPD with inclusion of glycopyrronium responsiveness: A real-world experience

Lung India
Background: The advent of glycopyrronium responsiveness has opened the prospect of selective responsiveness-based prescription of bronchodilators-β2-agonists or anti-muscarinic agents (AMA) for COPD.
