Journal ArticleDOI

Chlamydial Respiratory Infection during Allergen Sensitization Drives Neutrophilic Allergic Airways Disease

TL;DR: Inhibition of pulmonary neutrophil influx during infection blocked OVA-induced neutrophilic inflammation and T cell IFN-γ production and reversed the suppressive effects on mucus-secreting cell hyperplasia and AHR during AAD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-acting beta2-agonists versus theophylline for maintenance treatment of asthma.

TL;DR: Long-acting beta-2 agonists, particularly salmeterol, are more effective than theophylline in improving morning and evening PEF, but are not significantly different in their effect on FEV1.
Journal ArticleDOI

Monitoring the patient with asthma: an evidence-based approach.

TL;DR: The monitoring of symptoms, airflow obstruction, and exacerbations is essential to asthma management and regular monitoring by physicians improves health outcomes for patients, provided the physician is systematic and monitors control, medications, and skills at regular intervals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Streptococcus pneumoniae infection suppresses allergic airways disease by inducing regulatory T-cells

TL;DR: The potential for the development of therapeutic agents for asthma from S. pneumoniae attenuates allergic immune responses and suppresses AAD, and these effects may be mediated by S pneumoniae-induced Tregs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chlamydia pneumoniae immunoglobulin A reactivation and airway inflammation in acute asthma

TL;DR: Serological features suggest that Chlamydia pneumoniae reactivation may trigger neutrophilic airway inflammation in acute asthma, and an acute antibody response to C. pneumoniae is common in exacerbations of asthma.
