Factors Affecting Variations in Pulmonary Diffusing Capacity Resulting from Postural Changes

Riccardo Pistelli, Leonello Fuso, Rodolfo Muzzolon, Marco Canfora et autres

The relation of postural changes to the diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) was investigated in 12 normal nonsmokers in order to evaluate the influence of body position on several components of lung resistance to gas diffusion. The well-known …

Bilateral Bronchoalveolar Lavage in Progressive Systemic Sclerosis: Interlobar Variability, Lymphocyte Subpopulations, and Functional Correlations

Luigi Frigieri, Flaminio Mormile, Nunziatina Grilli, Donatella Mancini et autres

Bilateral bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) was carried out in right middle and left upper lobes of 22 nonsmoking females suffering from progressive systemic sclerosis in order to assess interlobar differences and functional correlation of the BAL composition. The patients' age ranged from 20 …

Associations between Atopy, Asthma History, Respiratory Function and Non-Specific Bronchial Hyperresponsiveness in Unselected Young Asthmatics

Enzo Ferrante, Giuseppe Maria Corbo, Salvatore Valente, Giuliano Ciappi

We evaluated the relationship between bronchial hyperresponsiveness and atopic status, clinical symptoms and airway calibre in a group of Italian conscripts who reported having bronchial asthma. 126 subjects were studied. Bronchial responsiveness was measured by the methacholine test, and atopic status was …

Comparison of The Performance of Two Mini Peak Flow Meters

Riccardo Pistelli, Leonello Fuso, Rodolfo Muzzolon, G Bevignani et autres

Two mini peak flow meters commonly used to monitorize the peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) are compared to assess their agreement, precision and, with respect to a standard pneumotachygraph, accuracy. Precision of the mini-Wright peak flow meter is greater, possibly as result …

Dose-Response Relationship: Fenoterol, Ipratropium Bromide and Their Combination

Giuliano Ciappi, P. Magnini, S. Valente, L. Toscano et autres

The beta agonist fenoterol, the antimuscarinic ipratropium bromide and their combination were compared in 10 patients with stable reversible airway obstruction. A single-blind cross-over design was used in order to obtain cumulative dose-response curves. The dose inhaled by an IPPB apparatus on …

Effect of Two Doses of Inhaled Diltiazem on Exercise-Induced Asthma

Antonio Foresi, Giuseppe M. Corbo, Giuliano Ciappi, S. Valente et autres

Seven asthmatic children with moderately to severely increased bronchial responsiveness to methacholine took part in a double-blind placebo-controlled study to assess the effect of a calcium channel blocker, diltiazem, on exercise-induced asthma (EIA), and its duration. On the control day, bronchial response …
