Presentation
The remainder continued into adult life, but symptoms were frequently not troublesome and present only with viral respiratory infections or exercise for many. [futuremedicine.com]
Latex allergenic proteins, if they are present, bind to the latex-specific IgE antibody in solution and they thus inhibit IgE antibody binding onto the latex allergosorbent. [astm.org]
In the present report, we have evaluated the potential of nine genes and proteins to serve as biomarkers using peripheral blood samples from healthy controls and nonallergic asthmatic patients. [frontiersin.org]

Inflammation
Moreover, information about the localization of inflammation in the respiratory tree is obtained by estimates of bronchial and alveolar contributions to exhaled NO. [diva-portal.org]
Also, correlations between YKL-40 levels and neutrophilic inflammation have been described ( 31 ). [frontiersin.org]

Physician
Current asthma was defined as self-reported physician-diagnosed asthma with at least one asthma symptom or attack recorded during the last year. Allergic status was defined by using measurements of specific immunoglobulin E (IgE). [diva-portal.org]
Several specialist guided and team-directed model programs involving selected primary care physicians have been shown to impact positively on the outcome of asthma in children [13–15]. [futuremedicine.com]

Eosinophilic Asthma

CPA3 was described as the best individual discriminator for eosinophilic asthma in a study of six gene biomarkers in sputum ( 39 ). [frontiersin.org]

Asymptomatic
If bronchodilator subresponsiveness is identified by incomplete resolution of symptoms and signs from even repeat use of the bronchodilator, continue till asymptomatic; re-evaluate if not improving within 5 days or asymptomatic within 10 days. [futuremedicine.com]

Hypoxemia
Oxygen is also indicated to correct hypoxemia. Measurement of pH and pCO 2 is indicated when hypoxemia is present. Early in the course of acute asthma, ventilation–perfusion mismatching causes hypoxemia. [futuremedicine.com]

Respiratory Distress
Indicated for severe acute asthma in the emergency room or hospital when response to a β 2 agonist is inadequate for relief of respiratory distress. Table 3. [futuremedicine.com]

Aspiration
These can include such varied disorders as cystic fibrosis, primary ciliary dyskinesia [37], tracheal or bronchial malacia [38], foreign body aspiration, vocal cord dysfunction [39], hyperventilation [33] or habit cough syndrome [40]. [futuremedicine.com]

Suggestibility
The limited value of FENO to detect subjects with asthma among ex- and current smokers suggests the predominance of a noneosinophilic inflammatory phenotype of asthma among ever-smokers. Place, publisher, year, edition, pages 2009. [diva-portal.org]
It has been tentatively suggested that SERPINB2 represents a novel effector of the multiple airway remodeling actions provoked by IL-13 ( 45 ). [frontiersin.org]

Treatment
Treatment in the doctor’s office, emergency room or hospital should generally be considered as damage control for manifestations of treatment failure. [futuremedicine.com]
Discussion There is a real need to improve the diagnosis and treatment of the asthmatic disease. [frontiersin.org]

Prognosis
Overall, we had very good AUC results, and here we propose four protein panels of individual biomarkers as well as different combinations of biomarkers for the diagnosis and/or prognosis of NA using peripheral samples and standard techniques. [frontiersin.org]
Etiology
Different pathophysiological changes in terms of bronchial NO production and exchange were related to the etiology of pulmonary hypertension. [diva-portal.org]
Epidemiology
An epidemiological study. Br. Med. J. 4,321–325 ( 1969 ). Google Scholar 122 McNicol KN, Williams HE, Gillam GL: Chest deformity, residual airway obstruction and hyperinflation and growth in children with asthma. [futuremedicine.com]
Pathophysiology
Different pathophysiological changes in terms of bronchial NO production and exchange were related to the etiology of pulmonary hypertension. [diva-portal.org]
This fact increases its pathophysiological potential, and has been described as a central pivot of health and disease ( 36 ). [frontiersin.org]
Prevention
While regularly taking medication will not prevent the acute flare of asthma from a viral respiratory infection, prompt intervention can shorten the course and generally prevent the need for urgent medical care or hospitalization. • First: use your inhaled [futuremedicine.com]
