Exhaled nitric oxide in the diagnosis of asthma: comparison with bronchial provocation tests.
BACKGROUND Bronchial provocation tests such as exercise, methacholine (MCH), and adenosine-5'-monophosphate (AMP) challenges are used extensively in the diagnosis of asthma. A study was undertaken to determine whether exhaled nitric oxide (eNO) can be used to diagnose asthma in patients with non-specific respiratory symptoms and to compare this test with conventional provocation tests. METHOD...

متن کاملComparison of exhaled nitric oxide measurement with conventional tests in steroid-naive asthma patients.
BACKGROUND Nitric oxide (NO) is a molecule with potent biological activity that plays an important role in the physiology of the respiratory system. Increased expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and elevated fractional concentration of exhaled nitric oxide (F(ENO)) are seen in asthmatic patients. Measurement of F(ENO) has become increasingly recognized for use in the evaluation...
