Fentanyl Compromises Lower‐Airway Mechanics and Naloxone Triggers a Transient Mechanical Overshoot
ABSTRACT Aim Opioid‐induced respiratory depression (OIRD) is the leading cause of death following opioid overdose, due to its effects on central rhythm generation, and airway and thoracic constriction. While the effects on rhythm generation have been well documented, the effects of fentanyl on airway constriction are less well understood. We tested the

High BDR (≥10% FEV1) predicts 3‐fold higher odds of poor asthma control in children with moderate‐to‐severe asthma. High BDR links to elevated T2 cytokines (IL‐4, IL‐13) and non‐T2 mediators (IL‐1β, IL‐6, IL‐7, IL‐8, TNF‐α), as well as MMP‐1. BDR offers non‐invasive phenotyping potential to advance personalized asthma management.
