Filter by:Assessment of cardiovascular disorders using echocardiography and arterial stiffness; comparative noninvasive assessment of volatile organic compound (eVOC) exhale breath patterns in patients with different chronic respiratory diseases with age and gender-matched healthy adults in order to identify a disease-specific exhaled eVOCs profiles and markers of respiratory and cardiovascular disorders.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the frequency needed for stepping-up treatment in patients with mild and moderate bronchial asthma. The main questions this study aims to answer are: - What is the frequency and duration in which patients of asthma need to step up their treatment? - Can the criteria described in this study be applied and validated to test need for step up of asthma treatment? Participants will follow the treatment they are already receiving according to established guidelines and will be asked for regular visits for examination and spirometry. They will record symptoms score, each time they use the prescribed rescu inhaler, and morning and evening peak expiratory flow.
Bronchial asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by recurrent reversible episodes of breathlessness, wheezing, chest tightness and/ or cough. The prevalence of asthma in India is about 2%, and asthma is responsible for significant morbidity. A diagnosis of asthma is made in the presence of clinical symptoms with or without reversibility on spirometry assessment.1 Treatment comprises of inhaled medications that are used either as controller medication or a reliever medications. In a recent study involving asthmatic children, single maximal inhalation with breath hold was not found to be superior to tidal breathing for improvement in peak expiratory flow rates. The authors hypothesized that both the techniques would improve FEV1 similarly.
The purpose of the study is to assess the relationship between body posture and dynamic balance in adults with childhood-onset asthma and compare them to a non-asthmatic control group matched for gender, age, weight, and height.
The aim of this study is to investigate the associations between serum IL-38 levels and different variables of asthma in children such as laboratory variables, pulmonary function test results, the diagnosis of asthma, and in correlation with disease severity.
This is a randomized, assessor-blind, placebo controlled, multicenter, clinical endpoint bioequivalence study to compare the efficacy and safety of generic fluticasone propionate inhalation aerosol USP 44 mcg (Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Ltd) to Flovent HFA (fluticasone propionate inhalation aerosol) 44 mcg (GSK group of companies) in treatment of patients with bronchial asthma.
Pharmacodynamic bioequivalence study of Albuterol Sulfate Inhalation Aerosol 0.09 mg
The goal of this study is to identify reliable, valid, easily measurable, interpretable, and useful biomarkers in peripheral blood and exhaled air by people with severe asthma for a more accurate description of the pathogenetic processes of asthma-related to the inflammatory endotype and the choice of biologic therapy.
This study was designed to assess the effect of inspiratory and expiratory muscle training in the same cycle on respiratory muscle strength, pulmonary functions, perception of asthma symptoms in children with bronchial asthma. Fifty-one children with bronchial asthma were randomly allocated to the unloaded respiratory muscle training (Placebo training group; n = 17), inspiratory muscle training alone (inspiratory muscle training group; n = 17), or combined inspiratory and expiratory muscle training in the same cycle (combined training group; n = 17). All groups were assessed for respiratory muscle strength, pulmonary functions, and asthma symptoms.
Asthma is a chronic respiratory disorder characterized by bronchial inflammation and reversible bronchial obstruction. Severe asthma is an extremely heterogeneous disease, often associated with several comorbidities and risk factors. Severe uncontrolled asthma associated with bronchiectasis is an emerging phenotype. Several studies have attempted to establish an association between asthma and bronchiectasis. Mepolizumab, an Interleukin-5 (IL-5) antagonist, reduces exacerbations, eosinophils, and improves pulmonary function and asthma control. IL-5 is pivotal to eosinophils maturation and release from bone marrow, their subsequent accumulation, activation and persistence in the tissues. IL-5 therefore represents an attractive target to prevent or blunt eosinophils-mediated inflammation. The investigators hypothesize that eosinophils, stimulated by IL-5, play a crucial role in severe asthma and BE pathogenesis.
