Circulating survivin levels in healthy and asthmatic pregnancy
BACKGROUND Asthma is one of the most common conditions which complicate pregnancy. Pro- and anti-apoptotic mechanisms can be modulated by asthma accompanying pregnancy. Survivin, an anti-apoptotic protein has been implicated in the pathomechanism of asthma and also in the development of pathological pregnancies; however survivin has not been studied in pregnant asthmatics. METHODS Twenty-eigh...
متن کاملBronchodilator responsiveness using spirometry in healthy and asthmatic preschool children.
OBJECTIVE To assess repeatability and reproducibility of spirometry measurements, and bronchodilator responsiveness (BDR), in healthy 3-6-year-old preschool children and those with asthma. DESIGN Spirometry was performed before and 20 minutes after administering either inhaled placebo (for repeatability) or 400 μg salbutamol (for BDR) on two separate occasions (reproducibility) 3-23 days apar...
متن کاملHistamine blocking agents in healthy and asthmatic subjects.
We compared the effects of two histamine receptor blocking agents, chlorpheniramine (H1) and cimetidine (H2) on the airways of healthy and asthmatic subjects. Eleven healthy subjects and ten asthmatic patients underwent histamine aerosol challenge. A threshold dose (T) for response to histamine was determined for each subject using maximal expiratory flow rates on partial expiratory flow rates ...
متن کاملAssessment of exercise capacity among asthmatic and healthy adolescents.
OBJECTIVES To compare the physical performance and responses obtained in the six-minute walking test (6MWT) and the six-minute step test (6MST) between asthmatic and healthy adolescents; and to investigate the relationship between the responses obtained in the tests and the body mass index (BMI), physical activity level and spirometric variables. METHODS Nineteen asthmatic adolescents (AG) an...
متن کاملBeta-adrenergic function in airways of healthy and asthmatic subjects.
We measured the short-term effects of beta-adrenergic blockade with propranolol (0.2 mg/kg iv), followed by stimulation with salbutamol (200 mug inhaled), on specific airway conductance (SGaw) heart rate, and systemic blood pressure (BP) in 11 healthy subjects, and 11 symptom-free asthmatics with normal lung function values. Propranolol induced a significant bronchoconstrictor effect in both gr...
