Profiling Persistent Asthma Phenotypes in Adolescents: A Longitudinal Diagnosti...

We aimed to identify persistent asthma phenotypes among adolescents and to evaluate longitudinally asthma-related outcomes across phenotypes. Adolescents (13-17 years) from the prospective, observational, and multicenter INSPIRERS studies, conducted in Portugal and Spain, were included (n = 162). Latent class analysis was applied to demographic, environmental, and clinical variables, collected at a baseline med...

The Portuguese Severe Asthma Registry: Development, Features, and Data Sharing ...

The Portuguese Severe Asthma Registry (Registo de Asma Grave Portugal, RAG) was developed by an open collaborative network of asthma specialists. RAG collects data from adults and pediatric severe asthma patients that despite treatment optimization and adequate management of comorbidities require step 4/5 treatment according to GINA recommendations. In this paper, we describe the development and implementation ...

Omalizumab for Severe Asthma: Beyond Allergic Asthma

Different subsets of asthma patients may be recognized according to the exposure trigger and the frequency and severity of clinical signs and symptoms. Regarding the exposure trigger, generally asthma can be classified as allergic (or atopic) and nonallergic (or nonatopic). Allergic and nonallergic asthma are distinguished by the presence or absence of clinical allergic reaction and in vitro IgE response to spe...

Urinary metabolomic changes as a predictive biomarker of asthma exacerbation

Idade como variável na resposta broncomotora adrenérgica/colinérgica

Background: Changes of pulmonary mechanisms, receptor population and nervous control of the airway, that occur with ageing, are responsible for the different clinical presentation of pathologies like asthma, as well as different efficacy of bronchodilator therapeutics in the aged patient. To be explained are the effects of age in the bronchodilator response to beta-mimetics and cholinergics and the existent evi...

Características clínicas e polissonográficas de doentes com distúrbio respirató...

There is a 10 -36% rate of obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSAS) associated with rapid eye movement (REM) in the OSAS population. Prior studies have suggested an increased prevalence of psychiatric disorders and an effect of gender and age on these patients. Our aim was to study the clinical and polysomnograph (PSG) characteristics of our patients with REM- -related sleep disordered breathing (REM SDB). Incl...
