The relationship between tobacco smoke & bronchial asthma.
Bronchial asthma is a common disease and an important cause of morbidity among both children and adults. Tobacco smoking, both active and passive i.e., exposure to environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) has got important effects on asthma. Smoking by adults causes bronchial irritation and precipitates acute episodes. It also increases bronchial responsiveness and causes airway sensitization to sever...
متن کاملThe relationship between bronchial immunopathology and hyperresponsiveness in asthma.
Physiological and Immunopathological parameters were investigated in 15 patients with diagnosed asthma, and 6 non-asthmatics presenting with other chest symptoms. The 15 symptom-free asthmatics expressed bronchohyperresponsiveness with a mean provocative dose producing a 20% fall in forced expiratory volume in one second (PD20FEV1) of 1 mg histamine. None of the non-asthmatics responded to 16 m...
متن کاملRelationship between matrix production by bronchial fibroblasts and lung function and AHR in asthma.
The reasons for enhanced deposition of extracellular matrix in the airways of asthmatic patients and the subsequent consequences on lung function are uncertain. Here, we investigated the synthesis of procollagen I and proteoglycans, the activity of various metalloproteinases (MMPs) and the production of their inhibitor TIMP-1 in biopsy-derived bronchial fibroblasts from eight patients with stab...
متن کاملRelationship between Bronchial Hyperresponsiveness and Impaired Lung Function after Infantile Asthma
Wheezing during infancy has been linked to early loss of pulmonary function. We prospectively investigated the relation between bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) and progressive impairment of pulmonary function in a cohort of asthmatic infants followed until age 9 years. We studied 129 infants who had had at least three episodes of wheezing. Physical examinations, baseline lung function tests...
متن کاملadrenocortical function in bronchial asthma
In a previous paper (Robson and Kilborn, 1965) we described some observations on adrenocortical function in continuous asthma. The methods employed were the cortisol production rate using an isotope dilution method (De Witt, Robson, and Stewart, 1962) and the specific measurement of plasma cortisol during adrenocorticotrophic hormone (A.C.T.H.) stimulation by a continuous intravenous infusion (...
