Bronchial hyperresponsiveness, airway inflammation, and reversibility in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
BACKGROUND Bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR), sputum eosinophilia, and bronchial reversibility are often thought to be a hallmark of asthma, yet it has been shown to occur in COPD as well. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the relationship between BHR, lung function, and airway inflammation in COPD patients. METHODS Thirty-one, steroid-free patients with stable, mild and moderate COPD were studied. ...
متن کاملInflammation Markers and FEF25-75: A Relevant Link in Children With Asthma.
84 http://e-aair.org Jang and colleagues investigated the relationship between exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) and atopy profiles in children with asthma. They focused their attention mainly on the FeNO, showing that this parameter varied according to the profile of atopy. The authors also investigated lung function, including bronchial hyperreactivity. However, forced vital capacity, forced expira...
متن کاملPoverty as a cause and consequence of Ill health
Background and aims: Poverty is a multidimensional phenomenon that can be defined in both economic and social terms. The paper attempts to review the existing evidence to understand the relation between poverty and ill health in the context of the limited conceptual and operational definitions of these terms. The paper uses two of Hills criteria- reversibility and dose response relationship to ...
متن کاملBronchial hyperreactivity to histamine in aspirin sensitive asthmatics: relationship to aspirin threshold and effect of aspirin desensitisation.
Twenty seven aspirin sensitive asthmatic patients were studied to determine the relationship between non-specific bronchial responsiveness to inhaled histamine and the degree of sensitivity to aspirin (aspirin threshold dose). No correlation was found between provocative concentration of histamine (PC20H) and aspirin threshold dose. In 11 patients the influence of aspirin desensitisation on bro...
متن کامل[Association between chronic colonization or infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa and bronchial hyperreactivity in patients with cystic fibrosis].
OBJECTIVE In patients with cystic fibrosis, bronchial hyperreactivity is a common finding that has not been conclusively associated with atopy. The objective of the present study was to determine the relationship between chronic colonization or infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa and bronchial hyperreactivity in a group of patients with cystic fibrosis. PATIENTS AND METHODS A nonspecific hi...
متن کاملSputum cell count: biomarkers in the differentiation of asthma, COPD and asthma–COPD overlap
INTRODUCTION Cell count in induced sputum is a noninvasive biomarker to assess airway inflammation phenotypes. Accordingly, sputum cell counts are extensively used in the treatment of asthma and COPD. Nevertheless, the clinical application of sputum cell counts in patients with asthma-COPD overlap (ACO) remains elusive. The aim of this study was to investigate sputum cell counts in patients wit...
