Airway dysfunction in elite swimmers: prevalence, impact, and challenges
The prevalence of airway dysfunction in elite swimmers is among the highest in elite athletes. The traditional view that swimmers naturally gravitate toward swimming because of preexisting respiratory disorders has been challenged. There is now sufficient evidence that the higher prevalence of bronchial tone disorders in elite swimmers is not the result of a natural selection bias. Rather, the ...
متن کاملAccuracy of Impulse Oscillometry in Airway Dysfunction
Background: The purpose of this study was to calculate and compare the specificity and sensitivity of impulse oscillometry (IOS) as a new technique in the detection of airways dysfunction by means of a simple pulmonary function test in chemical warfare injured cases suffering from respiratory diseases. Methods: The study was performed prospectively in 100 patients, who complained of dyspnea as ...

متن کاملAirway Inflammation and Epithelial Damage in Elite Swimmers and Skiers
M ANY athletes in endurance sports develop exerciseinduced asthma. A mixed neutrophilic/eosinophilic airway inflammation has been reported in swimmers and cross-country skiers, but its association with airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) is unknown. This study evaluated patterns of inflammation and epithelial damage associated with "swimmers' asthma" and "skiers' asthma." The study included 64 hig...
متن کاملFirst Reported Case of Reactive Airway Dysfunction Syndrome in a Laborer Due to Porcelain Tile Dust
Reactive airway dysfunction syndrome (RADS) is a type of non-immunologically mediated asthma-like disease. It usually occurs after a massive exposure to an irritating substance in the atmosphere in the form of smoke, fumes, gases, and vapor. Unlike bronchial asthma, there is no latency to the symptoms seen in RADS. A number of agents are known to cause RADS, but tile dust, as an etiological age...
