Exercise-Induced Asthma and Anaphylaxis

Sports Medicine, 1994
With increased popularity in exercise, the number of individuals with exercise-induced asthma (EIA), or 'exercise-induced bronchospasm', has increased due to an increased awareness among physicians of the clinical symptoms associated with EIA. EIA affects approximately 75 to 95% of asthmatic patients.

Exercise-induced Bronchodilation in Asthma

Chest, 1985
Of 34 symptomatic adult asthmatic patients (23 men) aged 51 +/- 13 years (mean +/- 1 SD) with moderately severe airways obstruction who underwent maximal exercise testing at room temperature (22 degrees C) and humidity (44 percent RH) using a bicycle ergometer, we identified seven male patients aged 56 +/- 9 years in whom forced expired volume in one ...

Deconditioning of Exercise-Induced Asthma

Psychosomatic Medicine, 1977
The majority of asthmatic children develop a significant degree of bronchospasm after a moderate amount of exercise. Etiology of this phenomenon has remained unknown. Pulmonary function tests, measurements of blood gases, and immunological assessments have been essentially normal.

Exercise- and Cold-Induced Asthma

Canadian Journal of Applied Physiology, 1995
Exercise- and cold-induced asthma are commonly recognized respiratory disorders. The asthmatic response includes several factors contributing to airway narrowing, and thus increased airway resistance. These include airway smooth muscle contraction, mucus accumulation, and bronchial vascular congestion as well as epithelial damage and vascular leakage ...

The mechanism of exercise-induced asthma is …

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2000
Exercise-induced asthma (EIA) refers to the transient narrowing of the airways that follows vigorous exercise. The mechanism whereby EIA occurs is thought to relate to the consequences of heating and humidifying large volumes of air during exercise.

Exercise-Induced Asthma

Current Sports Medicine Reports, 2011
Exercise-induced asthma (EIA) refers to the transient narrowing of the airways following strenuous exercise in asthmatic and otherwise healthy individuals. Despite the heterogeneous treatment options for patients with EIA, there remains a substantial burden of unaddressed disease, even with optimal treatment.

Exercise-Induced Asthma: An Overview

The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 2001
Asthmatic attack in exercise-induced asthma is brought about by hyperventilation (not necessarily to exercise), cold air, and low humidity of the air breathed. The effects are an increase in airway resistance, damage to bronchial mucosa, and an increase in bronchovascular permeability.

Issues in exercise-induced asthma

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 1985
It is concluded that challenge by exercise and ISH induces asthma by the same mechanism, the protective effect of water vapor is evidence that the events that lead to bronchial smooth muscle contraction begin in the airway lumen, it is the loss of water rather than the loss of heat from the airways that is the primary stimulus to EIA and HIA, the ...

Exercise-induced asthma and doxantrazole

European Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 1977
In a double-blind cross-over trial in 13 patients with exercise-induced asthma, doxantrazole 200 mg taken orally 1 hour before a standardized exercise test involving stair climbing failed to block post-exercise bronchoconstriction. In an open assessment study with the same patients, increasing the doxantrazole dose to 400 mg did not affect post ...

Exercise-Induced Asthma in Athletes

Sports Medicine, 1988
Asthma is a common condition, affecting 5 to 10%ofthe adult population. Exercise(Floyer 1698), cold air (Miller et al. 1965) and fog (Lilker & Jauregui 1981) may precipitate bronchospasm in susceptible subjects. Exercise challenge on a treadmill is used in many respiratory function laboratories as a test for asthma in patients who have normal resting ...
