Allergic Rhinitis and Its Impact on Asthma

TL;DR: This systematic review and meta-analyses confirmed the findings of a previous study published in “Rhinitis and Asthma: Causes and Prevention, 2nd Ed.” (2015) as well as new findings of “Mechanisms of Respiratory Disease and Allergology,” which confirmed the role of EMTs in the development of these diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global initiative for chronic obstructive lung disease.

TL;DR: Representatives from many countries serve as a network for the dissemination and implementation of programs for diagnosis, management, and prevention of COPD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global strategy for asthma management and prevention: GINA executive summary.

TL;DR: It is reasonable to expect that in most patients with asthma, control of the disease can and should be achieved and maintained, and the Global Initiative for Asthma recommends a change in approach to asthma management, with asthma control, rather than asthma severity, being the focus of treatment decisions.

Budesonide treatment of moderate and severe asthma in children: A dose-response study

TL;DR: Low doses of budesonide, which are not associated with any systemic side effects, have a marked antiasthma effect in children and protection against exercise-induced asthma requires higher doses than achievement of symptom control.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of yoga breathing exercises (pranayama) on airway reactivity in subjects with asthma.

TL;DR: There was a statistically significant increase in the dose of histamine needed to provoke a 20% reduction in FEV1 (PD20) during pranayama breathing but not with the placebo device, and the usefulness of controlled ventilation exercises in the control of asthma should be further investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Growth and childhood asthma.

TL;DR: Asthma had no direct influence on growth in height but was associated with delay in the onset of puberty, and the pre-adolescent physiological deceleration of growth velocity that occurs in these children gives the impression of growth retardation.

Leukotriene antagonist prevents exacerbation of asthma during reduction of high-dose inhaled corticosteroid. The Tokyo Joshi-Idai Asthma Research Group.

TL;DR: The leukotriene antagonist ONO-1078 prevents the asthma deterioration provoked by a 6-wk reduction of the dose of inhaled BDI into half, and the number of daytime and nighttime asthma symptoms and the use of beta2-agonist increased in the placebo group, whereas they remained unchanged in the ONO -1078 group.

Asthma : its pathology and treatment

TL;DR: The presentation here starts with the epidemiology, delves layer by layer into the airway wall, dissects each potentially important cell a and describes specific approaches to reduce the underlying disease processes.
