Advances in the diagnosis of exercise-induced bronchoconstriction [PDF]
Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) describes the post exercise phenomenon of acute airway narrowing in association with physical activity. A high prevalence of EIB is reported in both athletic and recreationally active populations. Without treatment, EIB has the potential to impact upon both health and performance.

Management of Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction [PDF]
Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) is a common clinical manifestation of asthma, occurring in 70% to 80% of asthmatics. Evidence suggests that exercise and the ensuing bronchoconstriction do not contribute to a worsening of asthmatic inflammation.

Imitators of exercise-induced bronchoconstriction [PDF]
Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) is described by transient narrowing of the airways after exercise. It occurs in approximately 10% of the general population, while athletes may show a higher prevalence, especially in cold weather and ice rink ...

Exercise‐induced bronchoconstriction assessed by a ratio of surface diaphragm EMG to tidal volume [PDF]
Exercise‐induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) is usually assessed by changes in forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) which is effort dependent. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the diaphragm electromyogram (EMGdi) recorded from chest ...

Effect of Hydration on Pulmonary Function and Development of Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction among Professional Male Cyclists [PDF]
Background: Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) is a common problem in elite athletes. Classical pathways in the development of EIB include the osmotic and thermal theory as well as the presence of epithelial injury in the airway, with local water

Predictors of exercise-induced bronchoconstriction in subjects with mild asthma [PDF]
Background Physical effort is capable of triggering airway obstruction in asthmatics, the so-called exercise-induced bronchoconstriction in asthma (EIBa).

Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction in children: Delphi study and consensus document about definition and epidemiology, diagnostic work-up, treatment, and follow-up [PDF]
Background Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) is common in children with asthma but can be present also in children without asthma, especially athletes.

Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction Identified Using the Forced Oscillation Technique [PDF]
Objective: Lung mechanics using the forced oscillation technique (FOT) is suggested to be equivalent and more sensitive in determining exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) than spirometry.

Predictors and reproducibility of exercise-induced bronchoconstriction in cold air [PDF]
Background Physical activity is an important part of life, and hence exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) can reduce the quality of life. A standardized test is needed to diagnose EIB.
