The prevalance of exercise induced bronchoconstriction in elite athletes.

Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction in elite long-distance runners in Brazil.

OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence of exercise-induced bronchoconstriction among elite long-distance runners in Brazil and whether there is a difference in the training loads among athletes with and without exercise-induced bronchoconstriction. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study involving elite long-distance runners with neither current asthma symptoms nor a diagnosis of exercise-ind...

Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction in Tunisian elite athletes is underdiagnosed

Many studies have shown an increased risk of developing exercise-induced bronchoconstriction among the athletic population, particularly at the elite level. Subjective methods for assessing exercise-induced bronchoconstriction such as surveys and questionnaires have been used but have resulted in an underestimation of the prevalence of airway dysfunction when compared with objective measurement...
