In the other hand, gasteroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is one of the most gastrointestinal problems among allergic patients like asthma that it might be the treatment conflict. Despite of asthma, we have a few studies about impacts of ...

BACKGROUND Patients with allergic rhinitis and allergic asthma demonstrate comparable local and systemic eosinophil inflammation, and yet they present with different clinical pictures. Less is even known about the contribution of neutrophil inflammation in allergic diseases. The aim of the study was to examine the propensity and selectivity of granule release from primed systemic eosinophils an...
