Article Synopsis
  • Over a 7-year period, researchers observed how asthma and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis responded to biological treatments.
  • There is limited understanding of how ASA/NSAID intolerance (Widal's disease) interacts with these biologicals.
  • The case study presented involves a patient suffering from both conditions who experienced a severe intolerance reaction to metamizole during surgery.

Article Synopsis
  • Sleep disorders in the Kyrgyz Republic are largely undiagnosed and untreated, prompting an exploration of the state of sleep medicine through insights from local and international health care workers.
  • A policy analysis and interviews revealed three main barriers: lack of education and training, financial constraints, and poor infrastructure and equipment.
  • A proposed strategy to overcome these challenges includes enhancing knowledge sharing, conducting implementation research, and advocating for policy changes to prioritize sleep health at both local and government levels.

Type-2 Asthma: Leaving Behind the Perspective of the Seventies The diagnosis 'bronchial asthma' spans different phenotypes of this disease like an umbrella. The differentiation of these phenotypes and their overlaps is becoming increasingly important, as the phenotype-specific treatment approaches of today are not effective with every form of asthma. These approaches include the strategy of allergen avoidance, allergen immunotherapy and, most importantly, the newly available biologics for asthma.

Study Objectives: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) promotes myocardial electrical instability and may predispose to nocturnal sudden cardiac death. We evaluated whether hypobaric hypoxia during altitude travel further impairs cardiac repolarization in patients with OSA, and whether this is prevented by acetazolamide, a drug known to improve oxygenation and central sleep apnea at altitude.

Methods: Thirty-nine OSA patients living < 600 m, discontinued continuous positive airway pressure therapy during studies at 490 m and during two sojourns of 3 days at altitude (2 days at 1860 m, 1 day at 2590 m).
