Measurements of fractional exhaled nitric oxide in pediatric asthma [PDF]
Exhaled nitric oxide (NO) has been extensively investigated as a noninvasive marker of airway inflammation in asthma. The increased NO expression induced by inflammatory mediators in airways can be monitored easily in exhaled air from asthmatic children.

Salivary contribution to exhaled nitric oxide [PDF]
Dietary and metabolic nitrate is distributed from the blood to the saliva by active uptake in the salivary glands, and is reduced to nitrite in the oral cavity by the action of certain bacteria. Since it has been reported that nitric oxide may be formed nonenzymatically from nitrite this study aimed to determine whether salivary nitrite could influence

Are exhaled nitric oxide measurements using the portable NIOX MINO repeatable?
Background Exhaled nitric oxide is a non-invasive marker of airway inflammation and a portable analyser, the NIOX MINO (Aerocrine AB, Solna, Sweden), is now available.

Airways oxidative stress, lung function and cognitive impairment in aging
Background. An altered balance of oxidants/anti-oxidants is one of the pathological mechanisms of many agedependent disorders. We aimed to investigate the age-related airways oxidative stress, using non invasive, safe and repeatable techniques; to ...

Exhaled nitric oxide in paediatric asthma [PDF]
Assessment of airway function is difficult in young children with asthma, and in addition, only reflects the status of the disease at the time of the measurement. Thus, there is increasing interest in monitoring airway inflammation in asthma, which may provide a longer term assessment of disease activity.

To study the level of nitric oxide in exhaled air in pregnant women with bronchial asthma as a monitoring of disease control and prediction of asthma-associated obstetric complications: Observational comparative study [PDF]
Aim. To determine the clinical significance of the level of nitric oxide in exhaled air (NOex) for optimizing the control of bronchial asthma (BA) in pregnant women in order to reduce asthma-associated obstetric complications. Materials and methods. A

Clinical aspects of exhaled nitric oxide [PDF]
There has been intense research into the role nitric oxide (NO) plays in physiological and pathological mechanisms and its clinical significance in respiratory medicine. Elevated levels of exhaled levels of exhaled NO in asthma and other inflammatory lung diseases lead to many studies examining NO as potential markers of airway inflammation, enabling ...
