January 2025

Department of Pediatrics, West China Second University Hospital, Sichuan University, No. 20, Section 3, South Renmin Road, Chengdu, Sichuan Province, 610041, China.

Background: This study aimed to investigate the association between relative fat mass (RFM) and asthma, as well as to explore the mediating role of Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index (SII) and Systemic Inflammation Response Index (SIRI).

Methods: This cross-sectional study utilized data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 2007 to 2018. Associations between RFM and asthma were tested using multivariable logistic regressions, restricted cubic splines, subgroup analyses, and interaction tests, with mediation analysis for SII and SIRI.

January 2025

Veterinary Medicine Cooperative Extension, Department of Population Health & Reproduction, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of California - Davis, Davis, CA 95616, USA. Electronic address:

Exercise intolerance, chronic cough, and hyperpnea are the clinical hallmarks of equine asthma. Diagnosis of severe equine asthma in horses is multistep; determination of the phenotype will help guide future recommendations. Management of equine asthma is largely reduction/elimination of triggering agents/conditions.

Introduction: Little is known about the effectiveness and safety of oxygen saturation (SpO2) thresholds in children admitted with respiratory distress. The current 90%-94% threshold could lead to prolonged administration of supplemental oxygen, increased duration of hospital admissions, distress for children and families, and healthcare costs. To balance reducing unnecessary oxygen administration and preventing hypoxia, a lower SpO2 threshold of 88% for oxygen supplementation in children has been suggested.

[Mechanism of inflammatory microecological response to TAS2R14/SIgA/TSLP in regulating epithelial cell barrier in cold asthma rats through lung-gut axis by using Shegan Mahuang Decoction and bitter and purging Chinese herbs].

Zhongguo Zhong Yao Za Zhi

December 2024

Anhui University of Chinese Medicine Hefei 230012, China Anhui Province Key Laboratory of Application and Transformation of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Prevention and Treatment of Major Pulmonary Diseases Hefei 230031, China Key Laboratory of Xin'an Medicine, Ministry of Education Hefei 230038, China.

This study aimed to investigate the mechanism by which Shegan Mahuang Decoction(SGMH) and its bitter Chinese herbs(BCHs) regulated the lung-gut axis through the bitter taste receptor 14(TAS2R14)/secretory immunoglobulin A(SIgA)/thymic stromal lymphopoietin(TSLP) to intervene in the epithelial cell barrier of cold asthma rats. Fifty SD rats were randomly divided into the following five groups: normal group, model group, dexamethasone group, SGMH group, and BCHs group. A 10% ovalbumin(OVA) solution was used to sensitize the rats via subcutaneous injection on both sides of the abdomen and groin, combined with 2% OVA atomization and cold(2-4 ℃) stimulation to induce a cold asthma model in rats.
