Airway obstruction in bronchial sarcoidosis: outcome with treatment.
STUDY OBJECTIVE Airway obstruction (AO) in sarcoidosis is reported to be associated with respiratory symptoms, increased morbidity, and an increased mortality risk. Because AO in sarcoidosis may result from several causes, the therapeutic benefit of corticosteroids is difficult to determine. The aim of this study was to evaluate the therapeutic response of AO attributable to sarcoid granulomas ...
متن کاملRecurrent airway obstruction in horses – an allergic inflammation: a review
Recurrent airway obstruction (RAO), also known as heaves, is a debilitating and incurable disease of the equine airway. Affected horses develop bronchoconstriction and neutrophilic airway inflammation as a result of exposure to specific airborne irritants and allergens such as hay mould and barn dust. Clinical signs of RAO include exercise intolerance, coughing, nostril flare and abdominal push...
متن کاملAirway oxidative stress in chronic cough
BACKGROUND The mechanisms of chronic cough are unclear. Many reactive oxygen species affect airway sensory C-fibres which are capable to induce cough. Several chronic lung diseases are characterised by cough and oxidative stress. In asthma, an association between the cough severity and airway oxidative stress has been demonstrated. The present study was conducted to investigate whether airway o...
متن کاملEvaluation of Coughing and Nasal Discharge as Early Indicators for An Increased Risk to Develop Equine Recurrent Airway Obstruction (RAO)
BACKGROUND It is often assumed that horses with mild respiratory clinical signs, such as mucous nasal discharge and occasional coughing, have an increased risk of developing recurrent airway obstruction (RAO). HYPOTHESIS Compared to horses without any clinical signs of respiratory disease, those with occasional coughing, mucous nasal discharge, or both have an increased risk of developing sig...
متن کاملPrimary tracheal B-cell lymphoma causing recurrent central airway obstruction.
Primary malignant tumors of the trachea are very uncommon, and can often be confused with asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Tracheal tumors are very rare, with an incidence of less than 0.01%; most are squamous cell carcinomas.1 Very few cases of primary tracheal lymphoma causing central airway obstruction have been described to date.2 A 72-year-old man was admitted with d...
