To help avoid delay in asthma diagnosis and advance asthma prevention research, researchers have proposed various models to predict asthma development in children.
Additionally, with the prison population aging, and a large segment lacking consistent care for most of their lives, advanced diabetes, hypertension, asthma and cancer are common.
…it is possible to dissociate antiviral from pro-inflammatory responses simply by inhibiting the p65 subunit of NF-κB… To explain virus-induced exacerbations, several hypotheses have been advanced that attribute asthma attacks to immune-mediated exacerbations, direct viral injury, or both (Jackson et al, 2011).
Treatment for asthma has advanced very little in the past half century – but biologic drugs hold out hope here too.
It will also bring them within walking distance of Nadeau's research lab and other physicians and researchers working together at Stanford to advance allergy and asthma research.
Risk factors commonly associated with development of severe disease, including advanced age, chronic illnesses (diabetes, asthma, obesity) or immunosuppression (other immune-mediated diseases, immunomodulatory therapies, pregnancy), were not present at increased frequency in Argentina.
Here, we will review how mouse models have advanced our understanding of severe asthma pathogenesis.
In this year's Advances in Asthma review, we discuss viral infections in asthmatic patients and potential therapeutic agents, the microbiome, novel genetic associations with asthma, air quality and climate effects on asthma, exposures during development and long-term sequelae of childhood asthma, patient-centered outcomes research, and precision medicine.
In this regard, the aim of the present review is to outline, after recalling the most recent advances in asthma pathobiology, the newly developing anticytokine therapies for asthma.
Despite the advances in asthma therapeutics, there are few data on the use and determinants of anti-asthmatic drugs in the general population of children.
Some of the included studies were published more than a decade ago, and advances in asthma care may have made their findings less applicable to current-day patients.
