Tiotropium improves lung function in patients with severe uncontrolled asthma: A randomized controlled trial
Huib A. M. Kerstjens,Bernd Disse,Winfried Schröder-Babo,Theo A. Bantje,Martina Gahlemann,Ralf Sigmund,Michael Engel,Jan A. van Noord +7 more
TL;DR: The addition of once-daily tiotropium to asthma treatment, including a high-dose inhaled corticosteroid plus a long-acting β₂-agonist, significantly improves lung function over 24 hours in patients with inadequately controlled, severe, persistent asthma.

Effect of budesonide/formoterol maintenance and reliever therapy on asthma exacerbations
Piotr Kuna,Matthew J. Peters,A. I. Manjra,Carin Jorup,Ian Naya,N. E. Martínez-Jimenez,Roland Buhl +6 more
TL;DR: Budesonide/ formoterol for maintenance and relief reduces asthma exacerbations and maintains similar daily asthma control at a lower overall drug load compared with fixed‐dose salmeterol/fluticasone and budesonide/formoterol.

Budesonide/Formoterol in a Single Inhaler for Maintenance and Relief in Mild-to-Moderate Asthma: A Randomized, Double-Blind Trial
Klaus F. Rabe,Emilio Pizzichini,Björn Ställberg,Santiago Romero,Ana M. Balanzat,Tito Atienza,Per Arve Lier,Carin Jorup +7 more
TL;DR: Budesonide/formoterol for both maintenance and relief improves asthma control with a lower steroid load compared with a higher dose of budesonide plus as-needed terbutaline.
Feasibility of Collecting Diary Data From Asthma Patients Through Mobile Phones and SMS (Short Messa
Jacob Anhøj Møldrup,Claus +1 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that SMS collection of asthma diary data is feasible, and that SMS may be a tool for supporting the self-management of asthma in motivated and self-efficacious patients because mobile phones are a part of people's everyday lives and enable active requests for data wherever the patient is.

The Asthma Control Test and Asthma Control Questionnaire for assessing asthma control: Systematic review and meta-analysis
Chun E. Jia,Hong Ping Zhang,Yan Lv,Rui Liang,Yun Qiu Jiang,Heather Powell,Juan-Juan Fu,Juan-Juan Fu,Lei Wang,Peter G. Gibson,Gang Wang,Gang Wang +11 more
TL;DR: The ACT is preferable to the ACQ in clinical practice, and the AC Q requires further cross-validation, but neither the ACT nor the ACZ is useful for the assessment of uncontrolled asthma.

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.

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.
