TL;DR: The Bronchiectasis Severity Index is a useful clinical predictive tool that identifies patients at risk of future mortality, hospitalization, and exacerbations across healthcare systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
IL-17 mRNA in sputum of asthmatic patients: linking T cell driven inflammation and granulocytic influx?
Dominique Bullens,Els Truyen,Liesbeth Coteur,Ellen Dilissen,Peter Hellings,Lieven Dupont,Jan Ceuppens +6 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that Th17 cell infiltration in asthmatic airways links T cell activity with neutrophilic inflammation in asthma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Weakly acidic reflux in patients with chronic unexplained cough during 24 hour pressure, pH, and impedance monitoring
TL;DR: Ambulatory pressure-pH-impedance monitoring with SAP analysis allowed precise determination of the temporal association between cough and gastro-oesophageal reflux (acid, weakly acidic, and weakly alkaline) and identification of a subgroup of patients with chronic cough clearly associated with weakly pH-related reflux.
Journal ArticleDOI
Azithromycin reduces airway neutrophilia and interleukin-8 in patients with bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome
TL;DR: Azithromycin significantly reduces airway neutrophilia and IL-8 mRNA in patients with BOS and can be used as a predictor for the FEV(1) response to azithromyzin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prospective Evaluation of the Validity of Exhaled Nitric Oxide for the Diagnosis of Asthma
TL;DR: The findings suggest that the simple and absolutely noninvasive measurement of exhaled NO can be used as an additional diagnostic tool for the screening of patients with a suspected diagnosis of asthma.
