Propylthiouracil-induced Hypersensitivity Vasculitis Presenting as Respiratory Failure
Chest, 1992Hypersensitivity vasculitis associated with propylthiouracil therapy is a well-documented clinical entity. Although any organ system may be involved, it is most unusual for pulmonary manifestations to be the cardinal presenting features. We report a 72-year-old woman presenting with respiratory failure and hemoptysis following initiation of ...

The role of the gastrointestinal tract in the development of respiratory hypersensitivities
Toxicology Letters, 1996Adverse reactions to foods may sometimes cause symptoms from the respiratory tract, including bronchial obstruction and rhinitis. The true prevalence is not known. In adults, it has been estimated to be about 1% of asthmatic patients or less. This would correspond to a prevalence of about 2-4 in 10,000 of the general population.

The role of the skin in the development of chemical respiratory hypersensitivity
Toxicology Letters, 1996Certain chemicals are known to cause occupational respiratory allergy associated with symptoms of pulmonary distress, including asthma and rhinitis. While there is no doubt that inhalation represents an important route of exposure for the development of sensitization to the inducing allergen, there is evidence that effective sensitization of the ...

Respiratory hypersensitivity and environmental factors: East and West Germany
Toxicology Letters, 1996We assessed the prevalence of asthma and allergic disorders in 9-11 year old children in Leipzig and Halle in East Germany, and Munich, West Germany. Both East German cities were heavily polluted due to private coal burning and industrial emissions, whereas Munich has moderate industry but heavy car traffic. All fourth grade pupils in Munich (n = 7445)

NSAID Hypersensitivity (Respiratory, Cutaneous, and Generalized Anaphylactic Symptoms)
Medical Clinics of North America, 2010Adverse reactions to drugs have been classified as predictable (related to the pharmacologic actions of the drug) and unpredictable (related to the individual's immunologic response or genetic susceptibility). The term "drug hypersensitivity" refers to the symptoms or signs initiated by an exposure to a drug at a dose normally tolerated by ...

Environmental chemicals, respiratory hypersensitization and international chemical safety
Toxicology Letters, 1996Allergic hypersensitization to a variety of chemicals, natural and synthetic, is a worldwide health problem. Respiratory tract hypersensitization is responsible for significant morbidity and, in some cases, mortality. An important step in managing and controlling health risks, such as allergic hypersensitization, is to identify the chemical hazard ...

[The hypersensitive respiratory system in childhood].
Klinische Padiatrie, 1986Aetiological factors and mechanisms of bronchial hyperreactivity are discussed. The hypothesis of increased permeability of the bronchial mucosa--caused by either endogenous or exogenous stimuli--as the most plausible explanation for the connection between hyperreactivity and childhood asthma bronchiale is emphasized.

Acute respiratory distress caused by erythromycin hypersensitivity.
Archives of internal medicine, 1978Severe respiratory distress developed in a patient after ingestion of two tablets of erythromycin (Erythrocin) stearate. Complete atelectasis of the left lung was found. The patient was treated intravenously with 200 mg of prednisolone sodium tetrahydrophthalate.
