Journal ArticleDOI

Community study of role of viral infections in exacerbations of asthma in 9-11 year old children.

TL;DR: This study supports the hypothesis that upper respiratory viral infections are associated with 80-85% of asthma exacerbations in school age children.
Journal ArticleDOI

Respiratory Viruses, Symptoms, and Inflammatory Markers in Acute Exacerbations and Stable Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

TL;DR: Viral exacerbations were associated with frequent exacerbators, colds with increased dyspnea, a higher total symptom count at presentation, a longer median symptom recovery period of 13 d, and a tendency toward higher plasma fibrinogen and serum IL-6 levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

The relationship between upper respiratory infections and hospital admissions for asthma : A time-trend analysis

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that upper respiratory viral infections are strongly associated in time with hospital admissions for asthma in children and adults and school attendance was found to be a major confounding variable in children.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rhinoviruses Infect the Lower Airways

TL;DR: A direct lower respiratory epithelial reaction as the initial event in the induction of rhinovirus-mediated asthma exacerbations is supported, suggesting that rhinOVirus infections may be one of the most important causes of lower in addition to upper respiratory disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Frequency, severity, and duration of rhinovirus infections in asthmatic and non-asthmatic individuals: a longitudinal cohort study

TL;DR: People with atopic asthma are not at greater risk of rhinovirus infection than healthy individuals but suffer from more frequent LRT infections and have more severe and longer-lasting LRT symptoms.
