متن کاملHuman platelet antigen polymorphism in bronchial asthma
Background: Asthma is recognized as a common cause of disability, of great economic cost, and of preventable deaths. In this study we aimed to test our hypothesis to evaluate the relationship between the Human Platelet Antigen-1(HPA-1) polymorphism and bronchial asthma and its severity, which would suggest genetic variances that may be responsible for expression or activation of these receptors...
متن کاملAcute severe alcohol-induced bronchial asthma.
We report the case of a severe bronchial asthma attack 15 minutes after the ingestion of food containing small amounts of alcohol. Although an ethanol inhalation test was negative, an acetaldehyde inhalation test was positive. Furthermore, it was discovered that the patient was homozygous for a mutation of the aldehyde dehydrogenase-2 (ALDH-2) gene. We subsequently diagnosed his attack as acute...
متن کاملElectrocardiographic changes in induced bronchial asthma.
Asthmatic attacks were induced in 11 patients by the inhalation of the antigenic extracts. The electrocardiograms were recorded before, during and after the attacks for comparison. The significant changes during the asthmatic attack were as follows: (1) taller and more peaked P-waves in leads II, III and aVF, and the shifting of the mean vector of P-waves on the frontal plane towards the right;...
متن کاملVirus Infection-Induced Bronchial Asthma Exacerbation
Infection with respiratory viruses, including rhinoviruses, influenza virus, and respiratory syncytial virus, exacerbates asthma, which is associated with processes such as airway inflammation, airway hyperresponsiveness, and mucus hypersecretion. In patients with viral infections and with infection-induced asthma exacerbation, inflammatory mediators and substances, including interleukins (ILs)...
