Journal ArticleDOI

Eosinophilic inflammation in asthma.

TL;DR: Eosinophilic inflammation of the airways is correlated with the severity of asthma and these cells are likely to play a part in the epithelial damage seen in this disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Markers of myocardial damage and inflammation in relation to long-term mortality in unstable coronary artery disease. FRISC Study Group. Fragmin during Instability in Coronary Artery Disease.

TL;DR: Elevated levels of troponin T and C-reactive protein are strongly related to the long-term risk of death from cardiac causes and these markers are independent risk factors, and their effects are additive with respect to each other and other clinical indicators of risk.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bronchoalveolar eosinophilia during allergen-induced late asthmatic reactions.

TL;DR: Bronchoalveolar lavage was performed in 19 asthmatic patients and in 5 control subjects to suggest that eosinophils and their mediators might be involved in the development of LAR after allergen inhalation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Use of Multiple Biomarkers to Improve the Prediction of Death from Cardiovascular Causes

TL;DR: It is suggested that in elderly men with or without prevalent cardiovascular disease, the simultaneous addition of several biomarkers of cardiovascular and renal abnormalities substantially improves the risk stratification for death from cardiovascular causes beyond that of a model that is based only on established risk factors.
