OBJECTIVES To measure the levels of exposure to nitrogen trichloride (NCl3) in the atmosphere of indoor swimming pools and to examine how they relate to irritant and chronic respiratory symptoms, indices of pulmonary function, and bronchial hyperresponsiveness to methacholine in lifeguards working in the pools. METHOD 334 lifeguards (256 men; 78 women) recruited from 46 public swimming pools ...
After several cases of occupational asthma had been reported in a coffee processing factory in England, 197 coffee workers representing 80% of the production workforce were studied to determine the factors affecting the development of work related respiratory symptoms of wheeze, cough, and dyspnoea. Two computer administered questionnaires concerning the presence of respiratory symptoms and the...
BACKGROUND We have previously reported that asthma differs from rhinitis with or without bronchial hyperresponsiveness in the perception and degree of lower airway inflammation. OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to investigate whether sputum levels of inflammatory markers could further distinguish these patient groups. METHODS Patients with seasonal allergic rhinitis with or withou...
Background EIA (Exercise-induced Asthma) can be considered a marker of severity and disease control in asthma. There are several diagnostic tools to evaluate airway hyperresponsiveness in EIA, but it has not been establish the best one. Our objective is to explore bronchial hyperresponsiveness with different lung function measurement techniques among a pediatric population with clinical history...
Limited knowledge exists about development of bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) through adolescence. We aimed to assess changes in and risk factors for BHR in adolescence. From a Norwegian birth cohort 517 subjects underwent clinical examinations, structured interviews and methacholine challenges at age 10 and 16. BHR was divided into four categories: no BHR (cumulative methacholine dose requ...
Respiratory RNA viruses responsible for the common cold often worsen airway inflammation and bronchial responsiveness, two characteristic features of human asthma. We studied the effects of dsRNA, a nucleotide synthesized during viral replication, on airway inflammation and bronchial hyperresponsiveness in murine models of asthma. Intratracheal instillation of poly I:C, a synthetic dsRNA, incre...
