- KMID: 2285928
- J Asthma Allergy Clin Immunol.
- 2001 Aug;21(4):600-609.
BACKGROUND: Cysteinyl leukotrienes are important inflammatory mediators in bronchial asthma because they enhance microvascular permeability, increase nonspecific bronchial hyperresponsiveness, and are potent bronchoconstrictor agents. Leukotriene E4 is a major metabolite... -

- Methacholine and Adenosine 5'-monophosphate Challenge Tests in Children with Asthma: Relationship to Eosinophil Markers in Blood
-
- KMID: 2299638
- Korean J Asthma Allergy Clin Immunol.
- 2006 Mar;26(1):52-58.
BACKGROUND: Bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) in asthma is thought to be a consequence of underlying airway inflammation. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between blood eosinophil... -

- KMID: 877072
- Korean J Radiol.
- 2000 Sep;1(3):127-134.
- doi: 10.3348/kjr.2000.1.3.127
OBJECTIVE: To determine the extent to which thin-section and volumetric three-dimensional CT can depict airway reactivity to bronchostimulator, and to assess the effect of different airway sizes on the degree... -

- KMID: 1785622
- Korean J Intern Med.
- 2007 Sep;22(3):164-170.
- doi: 10.3904/kjim.2007.22.3.164
BACKGROUND: The airway muscles from allergen-sensitized animals in vitro show a heightened response to histamine, but not to carbachol. This study investigated whether the airway responsiveness to histamine in... -

- Airway Hyperresponsiveness to Hypertonic Saline as a Predictive Index of Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction
-
Choi IS, Chung SW, Koh YI, Sim MK, Hong SN, Moon JS
- KMID: 1115251
- Korean J Intern Med.
- 2005 Dec;20(4):284-289.
- doi: 10.3904/kjim.2005.20.4.284
BACKGROUND: Changes in airway mucosal osmolarity are an underlying mechanism of bronchoconstrictive responses to exercise and hypertonic saline (HS). The purpose of this study was to examine whether an osmotic... -

- Asthmatic Airway Inflammation is More Closely Related to Airway Hyperresponsiveness to Hypertonic Saline than to Methacholine
-
Choi IS, Hong SN, Lee YK, Koh YI, Jang AS, Lee HC
- KMID: 1106140
- Korean J Intern Med.
- 2003 Jun;18(2):83-88.
BACKGROUND: Airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) to direct stimuli, such as methacholine (MCh), is observed not only in asthma but other diseases. AHR to indirect stimuli is suggested to be more specific... -
