Asthma and bronchiectasis exacerbation

TL;DR: The existence of asthma was associated with an independent increase in risk of bronchiectasis exacerbation and the variables found to be independently associated with bronchiectomy exacerbations were age, duration of symptoms, and isolation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in sputum.

Identification and prospective stability of electronic nose (eNose)–derived inflammatory phenotypes in patients with severe asthma

TL;DR: Exhaled molecular phenotypes of severe asthma were identified and followed up, which were associated with changing inflammatory profile and oral steroid use and suggests that breath analysis can contribute to the management ofsevere asthma.

Asthma control in patients receiving inhaled corticosteroid and long-acting beta2-agonist fixed combinations. A real-life study comparing dry powder inhalers and a pressurized metered dose inhaler extrafine formulation

TL;DR: pMDI extrafine BDP/F combination demonstrated better asthma control compared to DPIs formulated with larger particles, which could be due to the improved lung deposition of the dose or less reliance on the optimal inhalation technique or both.

The Real Role of β-Blockers in Daily Cardiovascular Therapy

TL;DR: This work reviews the available evidence for the use of β-blockers in clinical conditions in which recommendations can be made for everyday practice and recommends cardioselective β- blockers in patients with diabetes mellitus or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

High dose versus low dose inhaled corticosteroid as initial starting dose for asthma in adults and children.

TL;DR: A review of randomised controlled trials of two different doses of the same ICS in adults and children with asthma with no concomitant ICS or OCS found initial moderate ICS dose appears to be more effective than initial low I CS dose.

Dendritic cells and the control of immunity

TL;DR: Once a neglected cell type, dendritic cells can now be readily obtained in sufficient quantities to allow molecular and cell biological analysis and the realization that these cells are a powerful tool for manipulating the immune system is realized.

Lung volumes and forced ventilatory flows

TL;DR: Assessing the total lung capacity is indispensable in establishing a restrictive ventilatory defect or in diagnosing abnormal lung distensibility, as may occur in patients …

Hay fever, hygiene, and household size.

TL;DR: A possible explanation forHay fever trends over time is suggested, as well as a recent increase in the prevalence of asthma2 and childhood eczema.
