Effect of pH on bronchial response to inhaled histamine.
In order to investigate the effect of pH on bronchial responsiveness to inhaled histamine, 15 subjects with non-specific bronchial hyperreactivity performed two histamine inhalation tests, one with unbuffered, and the other with buffered histamine acid phosphate solutions. The unbuffered histamine solutions were prepared with 0.9% sterile saline and had a pH range from 4.3 to 7.3, while the buf...
متن کاملRelation between the bronchial obstructive response to inhaled lipopolysaccharide and bronchial responsiveness to histamine.
BACKGROUND Bronchoconstriction has developed after inhalation of lipopolysaccharide in a dose of 20 micrograms in asthmatic patients and of 200 micrograms in normal subjects. This study set out to determine whether the bronchial response to lipopolysaccharide was related to non-specific bronchial responsiveness and atopy. METHODS Sixteen subjects with a fall in specific airway conductance of ...
متن کاملEffect of inhaled beclomethasone and nedocromil sodium on bronchial hyperresponsiveness to histamine and distilled water.
In a randomized, cross-over study we compared the effects of inhaled nedocromil sodium, 4 mg q.i.d., with inhaled beclomethasone dipropionate, 200 micrograms q.i.d. in 23 atopic asthmatic patients. After a 3 week single-blind placebo period, regarded as the baseline, and after 4 and 8 weeks of active treatment, drug effects were assessed with regard to bronchial hyperresponsiveness to histamine...
متن کاملLongitudinal determinants of bronchial responsiveness to inhaled histamine.
BACKGROUND AND STUDY OBJECTIVE The point prevalence of bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) is imperfectly associated with current asthma, possibly due to changes over time in bronchial responsiveness (BR). To evaluate cross-sectional and longitudinal determinants of BR, a population sample comprising 408 children and adolescents, aged 7 to 17 years at enrollment, was examined twice, 6 years apa...
متن کاملSlope of the dose-response curve: usefulness in assessing bronchial responses to inhaled histamine.
The value of determining the slope of the histamine dose-response curve, in addition to the histamine provocation concentration producing a 20% reduction in FEV1 (PC20-FEV1), was assessed by analysis of histamine dose-response curves in 40 patients selected as having a wide range of increased non-specific bronchial responsiveness to inhaled histamine. The histamine dose-response curves were fou...
