The data of 19,784 adults from the European Community Respiratory Health Survey were analysed.

متن کاملEffects of Sodium Cromoglycate on Iranian Asthmatic Subjects Without Exposure to any Bronchoconstrictor agent

The purpose of this study was to determine the extent of change...

متن کاملCut-off points defining normal and asthmatic bronchial reactivity to exercise and inhalation challenges in children and young adults.
An analysis was undertaken to determine the optimal cut-off separating an asthmatic from a normal response to a bronchial provocation challenge by exercise and the inhalation of methacholine or histamine in children and young adults. Data were extracted, after appropriate correction, from published studies available in Medline of large random populations that complied with preset criteria of su...
