Role for Complement C5 in Eosinophilic Inflammation of Severe Asthma
Complement activation module, particularly C5, is positively associated with eosinophilic inflammation in severe asthma cohorts. Elevated C5 expression correlates with poor lung function improvement and persistent eosinophilic inflammation. Mouse model studies confirm that C5 exacerbates eosinophilic inflammation, highlighting its potential as a ...

Wildfires and Atopic Diseases: A Review
ABSTRACT Wildfire smoke is a major environmental health threat that has increased in frequency and severity in recent years. A hazardous component of wildfire smoke is particulate matter ≤ 2.5 μm (PM2.5). There is evidence to suggest that exposure to wildfire PM2.5 may increase the risk of developing or exacerbating atopic diseases, such as asthma ...

Salbutamol powder inhaled from the Diskhaler compared to salbutamol as nebulizer solution in severe chronic airways obstruction [PDF]
The bronchodilatory effect of four doses of salbutamol powder (1·6 mg) from a multi-dose dry powder inhaler, the Diskhaler, was compared to the effect of 2·5 ml salbutamol nebulizer solution (1 mg ml−1) from a jet nebulizer, Pari Inhalierboy, in a ...

Healthcare systems contribute up to 5% of global GHG emissions, with inhalers contributing a proportion of these. The carbon footprint of current salbutamol inhalers (pMDI with HFA‐134a propellant and DPI) and a planned salbutamol pMDI with low‐GWP propellant HFA‐152a was quantified across seven countries.

ABSTRACT Allergies are one of the major health challenges of our time, associated with a high individual burden of disease and high costs for the healthcare system. Given their prevalence, allergies are also highly relevant from a public health perspective. The development of allergic diseases is multifactorial. In addition to individual factors (e.g.,

Critical role of the mast cell/tryptase/PAR2 axis in anastrozole‐induced pain
Abstract Background and Purpose Anastrozole, an aromatase inhibitor, is used to treat postmenopausal women with hormone receptor‐positive breast cancer, but also induces musculoskeletal pain and can lead to therapeutic regimen suspension. Aromatase inhibitors promote the release of pro‐inflammatory substances from sensitised nerve fibres, which might ...
