Exhaled breath temperature in asthma.
We read with interest the manuscript of PIACENTINI et al. [1]. This paper shows that exhaled breath temperature plateau and exhaled nitric oxide (NO) are correlated in children with asthma. This finding is interesting considering that NO is a marker of inflammation and that exhaled breath temperature may also be used to assess inflammation in the airways in a noninvasive way. We previously show...
متن کاملNon-Invasive Diagnostic Methods for Differentiation of Biliary Atresia from Neonatal Hepatitis in Upper Egypt
Background Cholestatic jaundice in infancy is always pathologic and mainly caused by biliary atresia (BA), and neonatal hepatitis (NH). The early discrimination of both conditions is critical for the outcome of BA. We aimed to assess different non-invasive diagnostic tools in differentiating BA from NH. Materials and Methods Forty infants (25 boys, 15 girls) with cholestatic jaundice and final...
متن کاملNon-invasive phenotyping using exhaled volatile organic compounds in asthma.
BACKGROUND Breath volatile organic compounds (VOCs) may be useful for asthma diagnosis and phenotyping, identifying patients who could benefit from personalised therapeutic strategies. The authors aimed to identify specific patterns of breath VOCs in patients with asthma and in clinically relevant disease phenotypes. METHODS Breath samples were analysed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry...
متن کاملExhaled Breath Condensate: Technical and Diagnostic Aspects
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate the 30-year progress of research on exhaled breath condensate in a disease-based approach. METHODS We searched PubMed/Medline, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar using the following keywords: exhaled breath condensate (EBC), biomarkers, pH, asthma, gastroesophageal reflux (GERD), smoking, COPD, lung cancer, NSCLC, mechanical ventilation, cystic fib...
متن کاملResearch protocol for a diagnostic study of non-invasive exhaled breath analysis for the prediction of oesophago-gastric cancer
INTRODUCTION Despite improvements in a range of chemo, radio and surgical therapies, the overall survival at 5 years from oesophago-gastric cancer remains poor and ranges from 10% to 30%. Early diagnosis is a key strategy to improve survival but early disease stage has non-specific symptoms that are very common while the warning clinical picture often indicates advanced disease. The aim of this...
