Filter by:Due to the lack of studies examining the impact of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) on the severity of exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) and exercise performance, the specific aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of flow-resistive IMT on EIB severity and symptoms, short-acting beta-2-agonist medication use, operating lung volumes, respiratory and limb locomotor muscle deoxygenation during constant-load cycling exercise, exertional dyspnea, and cycling time-trial performance.
The purpose of this Phase III, multicentre, randomized, double-blind, single-dose, 2-period, crossover study is to assess the efficacy and safety of PT027 (budesonide/albuterol sulfate) metered-dose inhaler compared with placebo on exercise-induced bronchoconstriction in adult patients with asthma. Subjects will receive each study treatment on separate visits and undergo a treadmill exercise challenge test so that the effect of study treatment on exercise-induced bronchoconstriction can be evaluated
The purpose of this study is to investigate the micro ribonucleic acid (mRNA) profiles of patients with EIA without allergic sensitization and EIA with house dust mite sensitization compared to that of healthy controls.
Researchers found that impairments in the cardiopulmonary system caused by acute exposure to ozone were outweighed by repeated exposures to ozone. The goal of this study is to confirm there will be an adaptation similar to what was previously proved but in individuals with asthma and exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB). The purpose is to examine adaptive responses in a randomized cross-over trial in which physically active individuals will perform submaximal exercise on five days in ozone and filtered air exposures separated by a washout period.
This study will compare the inflammatory response in induced vs inhibited exercise induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) in patients with a medical diagnosis of asthma/EIB. Urinary and plasma samples will be analysed to compare the mediator release in each condition, alongside changes in lung function.
The Swiss Paediatric Airway Cohort (SPAC) is a national, prospective clinical cohort of children and adolescents who visit physicians in Switzerland for recurrent wheeze, cough, and exercise- or sleep-related respiratory problems. SPAC aims to answer important questions on clinical phenotypes, prognosis, diagnosis and treatment. SPAC is part of routine care, and only clinically indicated investigations are done. The comprehensive baseline assessment includes a detailed questionnaire to families, plus test results, diagnoses and treatments from hospital records. Follow-up is via monthly questionnaires the first 12 months and thereafter annual questionnaires to families, and data from follow-up visits. Currently, 4344 patients from 10 clinics and hospitals in Switzerland (Aarau, Basel, Bern, Chur, Horgen, Lausanne, Luzern, St. Gallen, Worb, Zurich) have been enrolled. SPAC provides real-life data on children visiting the Swiss health care system for common respiratory problems. It will provide a research platform for health services research, and for nested clinical and transitional studies.

The diagnosis of exercise-induced bronchospasm (EIB) is difficult. The metacholine challenge test is not enough specific for the diagnosis of EIB. The exercise challenge test on a cycle ergometer is often use to diagnose this condition. This test has very high specificity, but not enough sensibility because the ventilation achieved during this test is often not big enough to induce a bronchospasm, especially in trained athletes. Eucapnic voluntary hyperventilation (EVH) is the recommended test of the Olympic National committee to establish the diagnosis of EIB, but there are no study comparing the sensibility and specificity of the cycle ergometer challenge test and the isocapnic hyperventilation in an establish population of asthmatics. The investigators assume that the sensitivity and specificity of EVH are higher than those of the cycle ergometer for the diagnosis of EIB in a population of asthmatics with symptoms suggestive of bronchospasm on exertion. In a population of asthmatics with exercise symptoms, what is the sensitivity and specificity of EVH and exercise challenge on a cycle ergometer for the diagnosis of EIB?
Purposes: 1. To investigate whether patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) are at higher risk for exercised-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) due to baseline airway inflammation compared with age, gender, and body mass index (BMI)-matched controls. 2. To investigate the effect of 3-month continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy on EIB for patients with severe OSAS.
We hypothesize that exercise-induced bronchospasm (EIB) at the NCAA Division I collegiate level is over diagnosed, while poorly controlled asthma resulting in exercise-related symptoms in this same population may be under diagnosed, being erroneously attributed to EIB. This project will test individuals self-identified as having exercise induced bronchospasm or asthma, as well as gender-matched controls from the same sport, with eucapnic voluntary hyperventilation to assess for the presence of EIB or asthma. By making the correct diagnosis, improved health outcomes may be achieved and athletic performance may be enhanced.
