On the functional consequences of bronchial basement membrane thickening.
Reticular basement membrane (RBM) thickness and airway responses to inhaled methacholine (MCh) were studied in perennial allergic asthma (n = 11), perennial allergic rhinitis (n = 8), seasonal allergic rhinitis (n = 5), and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD, n = 9). RBM was significantly thicker in asthma (10.1 +/- 3.7 microm) and perennial rhinitis (11.2 +/- 4.2 microm) than in seaso...
متن کاملAirway inflammation, basement membrane thickening and bronchial hyperresponsiveness in asthma.
BACKGROUND There are few data in asthma relating airway physiology, inflammation and remodelling and the relative effects of inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) treatment on these parameters. A study of the relationships between spirometric indices, airway inflammation, airway remodelling, and bronchial hyperreactivity (BHR) before and after treatment with high dose inhaled fluticasone propionate (FP ...
متن کاملthe effect of functional/notional approach on the proficiency level of efl learners and its evaluation through functional test
in fact, this study focused on the following questions: 1. is there any difference between the effect of functional/notional approach and the structural approaches to language teaching on the proficiency test of efl learners? 2. can a rather innovative language test referred to as "functional test" ge devised so so to measure the proficiency test of efl learners, and thus be as much reliable an...
15 صفحه اولGlomerular basement membrane thickening in renal allografts.
Diffuse thickening of glomerular basement membranes (GBM) was optically observed in the renal grafts of 15 patients (21 specimens) among 70 recipients (128 specimens). Most of these specimens with diffuse GBM thickening were examined ultrastructurally. All cases with the above change were only found in allografts. The correlation was observed between the degree of GBM thickening and the clinica...
متن کاملBasement membrane thickening and clinical features of children with asthma.
BACKGROUND Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease, characterized by airway inflammation, bronchial hyper-responsiveness, and airway obstruction. Although asthma induces partially reversible airway obstruction, obstruction can sometimes become irreversible. This may be a consequence of airway remodeling, which includes a number of structural changes, such as epithelial detachment, basement mem...
