Change of bronchial hyperresponsiveness in asthmatic children.
INTRODUCTION Bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) is a factor in predicting bronchial asthma independently of inflammation markers. OBJECTIVE The aims were to determine the frequency and important predictive facts of BHR and the effect of prophylaxis by Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) and National Asthma Education and Prevention Program (NAEPP) on BHR in asthmatic children. METHODS BHR i...
متن کاملThe Effect of High-Altitude Therapy on Bronchial Hyperresponsiveness in Atopic Asthmatic Children
Background: Chronic asthma is a common, obstructive lung disease, affecting 300 million people worldwide. In the past 30 years prevalence has increased. Control of asthma is currently achieved with pharmacotherapeutic interventions such as inhaled sympathicomimetics and glucocorticocoids. High altitude climate therapy is an alternative method to pharmacological treatment. In the age before anti...
متن کاملBronchial hyperresponsiveness and toluene diisocyanate. Long-term change in sensitized asthmatic subjects.
Long-term change in nonspecific and specific bronchial hyperresponsiveness was studied in 16 subjects with asthma induced by toluene diisocyanate (TDI). A significant positive correlation between months of follow-up and provocative dose inducing a 20 percent fall in FEV1 (PD20FEV1) methacholine was observed in 5 of 16 subjects. In 4 of these 5 subjects, a PD20FEV1 > 1 mg of methacholine was obs...
متن کاملBronchial hyperresponsiveness in asthmatic adults--a long-term correlation study.
BACKGROUND Bronchial hyper responsiveness (BHR), is a risk factor for asthma. It is a state in which excessive narrowing of the airways occurs in response to varying stimuli. BHR seems to be due to the interaction of multiple factors and its relation to asthma is complex. Asthma without BHR is unusual. Indeed, patients who show a higher degree of symptoms have higher levels of BHR. To date no s...
متن کاملThe study of bronchial hyperresponsiveness in asthmatic children by forced oscillation technique.
We have studied the bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) of children with normal controls and asthma by methacholine inhalation challenge, using a forced oscillation method. Four parameters, respiratory conductance (Grs), bronchial responsiveness (PD35Grs), bronchial sensitivity (Dmin) and reactivity (SGrs) were studied. There were three patterns of dose-response curves identified in this study,...
