Journal ArticleDOI
Letter: Beclomethasone aerosol in chronic bronchial asthma.
Journal Article
Frequency of voice problems and cough in patients using pressurized aerosol inhaled steroid preparations
TL;DR: Voice dysphonia or throat symptoms were more prevalent in patients using higher doses of inhaled steroid and local side-effects were equally prevalent both with beclomethasone dipropionate and budesonide aerosol inhalers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Do large volume spacer devices reduce the systemic effects of high dose inhaled corticosteroids
TL;DR: The results from this uncontrolled study suggest that asthmatic patients taking high dose beclomethasone dipropionate may minimise adverse effects by using a large volume spacer device.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cutaneous vasoconstrictor response to glucocorticoids in asthma.
TL;DR: Resistance to glucocorticoids in the skin, together with reported evidence of glucoc Corticosteroid resistance in peripheral blood leucocytes, suggests a general defect in the ability of tissues to respond to glucOCorticoidoids in CR asthma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proinflammatory cytokines in acute asthma
TL;DR: This study provides further evidence for T-lymphocyte activation in asthma but shows that plasma sIL-2R is not a useful marker of disease activity.
