Asthma exacerbations · 4: Prevention

TL;DR: The ideal strategy for the management of worsening asthma in patients on combination treatment, especially salmeterol and fluticasone, is uncertain and there is an emerging body of evidence for strategies on how to prevent progression to an exacerbation in patients taking a combination of budesonide and formoterol.

Mechanisms of asthma and allergic inflammation Rostrum Can bacterial endotoxin exposure reverse atopy and atopic disease

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed an extension of the hygiene hypothesis based on indirect evidence of several epidemiologic observations showing a reduction in atopy in adults highly exposed to endotoxin that is unlikely to be explained by protective effects alone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Managing Asthma in Pregnancy (MAP) trial: FENO levels and childhood asthma

TL;DR: FENO‐guided asthma management during pregnancy prevented doctor‐diagnosed asthma in the offspring at preschool age, in part mediated through changes in use and dosing of inhaled corticosteroids during the MAP trial.
Journal ArticleDOI

Soluble fibre supplementation with and without a probiotic in adults with asthma: A 7-day randomised, double blind, three way cross-over trial.

TL;DR: Within group analysis showed improvements in airway inflammation, asthma control and gut microbiome composition following inulin supplementation and these changes warrant further investigation, in order to evaluate the potential of soluble fibre as a non-pharmacological addition to asthma management.
Journal ArticleDOI

Promoting evidence-based alternative medicine.

TL;DR: The quality of the studies was insufficiently rigorous to allow conclusions to be drawn about the efficacy of herbal medicines, and the difficulties in designing and implementing clinical research for interventions outside of the double-blind randomised controlled trial (RCT) of conventional drug therapy are highlighted.
