Airway reactivity to mannitol is similarly increased in chronic cigarette and water pipe smokers
Background In contrast to cigarette smoking, the association between water pipe smoking and airway hyperresponsiveness remains widely unexplored. Methods A bronchoprovocation challenge with mannitol was performed in young adults recruited at the University of Basel, Switzerland. Subjects were categorized as acute water pipe smokers (single episode of water pipe smoking, no or <0.5 pack-years ...
متن کاملReactivity to smoking cues in adolescent cigarette smokers.
This study examined reactivity to smoking cues in adolescent smokers (n=12) and nonsmokers (n=32), between 14 and 19 years of age. Participants were presented with videotaped smoking and neutral cues in a counterbalanced order. Subjective and physiological responses to each cue type were obtained. Findings indicated that smokers reported greater desire to smoke cigarettes in response to smoking...
متن کاملBronchial reactivity to cigarette smoke in smokers: repeatability, relationship to methacholine reactivity, smoking and atopy.
Bronchial reactivity to cigarette smoke (CBR) in a cross-section of 98 smokers has been investigated. All participants were subjects to skin-prick tests to common allergens, lung function measurements and bronchial challenges with methacholine and cigarette smoke. In 38 participants a rechallenge with cigarettes was performed 1 h after the first cigarette challenge. Lung function indices analys...
متن کاملPeripheral airways function and nonspecific airways reactivity in cigarette smokers.
Increasing concentrations of inhaled aerosolized histamine acid phosphate were administered to 31 heavy cigarette smokers from a smoking cessation clinic. Nineteen of 31 smokers (mean age +/- ISD: 39.6 +/- 11.5 yrs; pack years 25.5 +/- 13.5) failed to reduce forced expired volume in one second (FEV1) while inhaling histamine and were labelled nonresponders. In 12 of 31 smokers (age 38.4 +/- 9.4...
متن کاملVirtual Reality Cue Reactivity Assessment in Cigarette Smokers
Drug craving has purportedly been linked to relapse and to substance use. For over two decades, cue reactivity has been a viable method to assess craving and physiological reactions to drug stimuli. However, traditional cue reactivity has faced the following limitations: austere situations or stimuli, lack of complex cues, lack of standardization, and limited generalization outside of the lab s...
