Exacerbations of Asthma: A Descriptive Study of 425 Severe Exacerbations
American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 1999Abstract The identification, prevention, and prompt treatment of exacerbations are major objectives of asthma management. We looked at change in PEF, symptoms, and use of rescue β -agonists during the 425 severe exacerbations that occurred during a 12-mo parallel group study (FACET) in which low and high doses of budesonide with and ...

Acute exacerbation of macroglossia
British Journal of Plastic Surgery, 2005We report the case of a large venous malformation of the tongue, preventing the patient from being able to contain it within the oral cavity. The extent of the malformation precluded a complete surgical excision. The immediate problems were; impending airway compromise, inability to speak, eat or drink, severe discomfort due to exposure-induced dryness

Antidepressant exacerbation of spasticity
Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 1999Patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) may develop depression. This may be related to adjustment to living with an SCI in addition to dealing with complications of the injury, such as spasticity. Pharmacologic treatment of depression can be difficult because of neurochemical and receptor changes that are associated with SCI. Newer antidepressant agents

Severe Exacerbations of Asthma
Critical Care Nursing Quarterly, 2004All asthmatics regardless of their perceived severity, are at risk of exacerbation, particularly if they are suboptimally treated in the outpatient arena. Fortunately most patients recover after administration of bronchodilators and anti-inflammatory medications, but preventable deaths continue to occur and refractory cases result in hospitalization ...

Pneumologie (Stuttgart, Germany), 2017
Acute worsenings of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) were for a long time regarded as transient deteriorations, although occasionally life-threatening. No connection to disease progression was recognized. Data emerging during the last decade showed that patients had a considerably worse survival outcome after severe exacerbations.

Definitions of asthma exacerbations
Current Opinion in Allergy & Clinical Immunology, 2011During the past decade exacerbations of asthma have increasingly been recognized a as primary outcome parameter in clinical research. However, comparison of results is hampered by the use of different definitions for asthma exacerbations in published reports.

Exacerbation of pemphigus by rifampicin
British Journal of Dermatology, 1986Rifampicin therapy caused exacerbation of skin lesions, rising serum pemphigus antibody titres, and decreased serum betamethasone levels in a 59-year-old man with pemphigus vulgaris. Exacerbation of pemphigus was confined to the period of rifampicin therapy and seems to be best explained by the effect of rifampicin on the metabolism of betamethasone ...

Viruses in asthma exacerbations
Current Opinion in Internal Medicine, 2005Respiratory viruses are well recognized as major triggers of acute exacerbations of asthma in children and adults, resulting in frequent outpatients visits and hospitalizations. Clinical and epidemiologic evidence supports this association. The application of molecular diagnostic methods has improved understanding of viral epidemiology and the ...

Etiology of asthma exacerbations
Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2008Asthma exacerbations are common, and the major morbidity, mortality, and health care costs associated with asthma are related to exacerbations. The majority are related to viral infection, and although progress has been made in identifying the mechanisms of virus-induced asthma exacerbations, there is still much to be learned.
