Cluster Analysis of Obesity and Asthma Phenotypes
E. Rand Sutherland,Elena Goleva,Tonya S. King,Erik Lehman,Allen D. Stevens,Leisa P. Jackson,Amanda R. Stream,John V. Fahy +7 more
TL;DR: Members of obese clusters demonstrated evidence of reduced expression of GCRα, a finding which was correlated with a reduced induction of MKP-1 expression by dexamethasone, which may mediate GC insensitivity in obese asthmatics.

Chronic respiratory diseases in developing countries: the burden and strategies for prevention and management
TL;DR: Recommendations for alleviating the burden of chronic respiratory diseases in developing countries are adapting guidelines to local contexts and ensuring their distribution; upgrading equipment at district level; purchasing high-quality drugs at low prices; routine training and supervision of health services personnel; and regular monitoring of performance.

Reference values for spirometry, including vital capacity, in Japanese adults calculated with the LMS method and compared with previous values
Masaru Kubota,Hirosuke Kobayashi,Philip H. Quanjer,Hisamitsu Omori,Koichiro Tatsumi,Minoru Kanazawa +5 more
TL;DR: The new reference values faithfully reflect spirometric indices and provide an age-specific LLN for the 17-95-year age range, enabling improved diagnostic accuracy and more accurately reflect the transition in pulmonary function during young adulthood.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improved asthma control with budesonide/formoterol in a single inhaler, compared with budesonide alone.
TL;DR: It is concluded that single inhaler therapy with budesonide and formoterol is a clinically effective and well-tolerated treatment for patients with asthma that is not fully controlled by inhaled glucocorticosteroids alone.

Budesonide/formoterol for maintenance and relief in uncontrolled asthma vs. high-dose salmeterol/fluticasone
Jean Bousquet,Louis-Philippe Boulet,Matthew J. Peters,Helgo Magnussen,Joaquin Quiralte,Nora Martínez-Aguilar,Åsa Carlsheimer +6 more
TL;DR: In the treatment of uncontrolled asthma, budesonide/formoterol maintenance and reliever therapy reduces the incidence of severe asthma exacerbations and hospitalisation/ER treatment with similar daily symptom control compared with sustained high-dose salmeterol/fluticasone plus SABA.

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.

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.
