Introduction: Asthma is a common respiratory condition; however, its symptoms often overlap with other diseases, posing diagnostic challenges. Tracheal stenosis, often seen in patients with a history of intubation, can mimic asthma symptoms, leading to misdiagnosis.
Case Study: This case study discusses a 58-year-old female with hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and obesity.
Dyspnea and nocturnal cough due to esophageal diffuse leiomyomatosis in a girl with hematuria.
Pediatr Pulmonol
January 2025
Department of Pediatrics, Seoul National University College of Medicine, Seoul, Korea.
A 7-year-old girl with hematuria and clinical suspicion of Alport syndrome (AS) presented with dyspnea and nocturnal cough, initially diagnosed and treated as asthma. Despite inhaled corticosteroid therapy, her symptoms persisted, and spirometry indicated obstructive lung function without bronchodilator response. Chest CT revealed diffuse thickening of the esophageal wall, tracheal compression, with involvement of the gastric cardia, suggestive of diffuse leiomyomatosis.

Background: Ibuprofen is one of the most commonly used analgesic and antipyretic drugs in children. However, its potential causal role in childhood asthma pathogenesis remains uncertain. In this systematic review, we assessed the association between ibuprofen administration in children and the risk of developing or exacerbating asthma.

Department of Respiratory Medicine and Infectious Disease, Graduate School of Medicine, Yamaguchi University, Ube, Yamaguchi, Japan.
Background: Reports from Europe and North America suggest that female chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients have a higher symptom burden and mortality than male patients. However, little is known about the management reality of female patients with COPD in Japan.
Patients And Methods: We compared the clinical characteristics of female COPD patients with those of male using the cohort of the COPD Assessment in Practice study, which is a cross-sectional multicenter observational study.
Predictive Value of Fractional Exhaled Nitric Oxide (FeNO) in the Diagnosis of Asthma for Epidemiological Purposes-An 8-Year Follow-Up Study.
Adv Respir Med
January 2024
Department of Epidemiology, School of Medicine in Katowice, Medical University of Silesia in Katowice, 40-055 Katowice, Poland.
Unlabelled: At the population level, respiratory symptoms in children can be estimated cross-sectionally. However, such methods require additional objective support parameters, such as the measurement of fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO). The aim of the present study was to analyze if the FeNO value measured at baseline can have a predictive value for asthma-like symptoms after 8 years of measurement.
