To explore the application value of surface respiratory muscle electromyography and its ratio to tidal volume in the assessment of airway hyperresponsiveness in bronchial asthma patients. A case-control study was conducted to retrospectively analyze the data of 29 asthma patients who visited the outpatient department of respiratory medicine of the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from October 2015 to May 2017 and 27 non-asthmatic subjects who were recruited as the control group.Changes in surface respiratory muscle electromyography (parasternal, EMG, diaphragmatic, EMG), and its ratio to tidal volume (EMG/VT, EMG/VT) before and after the histamine challenge test were compared between the asthma group and the control group; and their receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were plotted.

Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, Peking University First Hospital, Beijing, China.
Background: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are environmental contaminants that can cause a variety of health problems. This study sought to determine whether there was a relationship between PAHs and current asthma in adults.
Methods: This cross-sectional study utilized data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2007 to 2016 and employed multifactor logistic regression, subgroup analyses, and smoothed curve fitting to examine the linear and nonlinear associations between PAHs and current asthma.
Diagnostic Accuracy of FEF for Bronchial Hyperresponsiveness in Patients with Suspected Asthma and/or Allergic Rhinitis: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Department of Pathology, The Second People's Hospital of China Three Gorges University/ Yichang Second People's Hospital, Yichang, 443000, Hubei, China.
Background: Some studies have suggested that the forced expiratory flow between 25 and 75% of vital capacity (FEF) can be used as an early marker of bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) in asthma and allergic rhinitis (AR), but is highly variable. Here, we aimed to assess whether the FEF can be used to diagnose BHR in patients with asthma-like symptoms and AR.
Methods: PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, Wiley Online Library, Cochrane Library, SinoMed, CNKI, and Wanfang Data were searched to acquire eligible studies.

Article Synopsis
- Serum albumin levels reflect various organ functions and may serve as biomarkers for respiratory illnesses, yet its relationship with asthma has been underexplored.
- This study used data from the NHANES (2003-2018) to analyze the correlation between serum albumin and asthma, employing various statistical methods to assess their connection.
- Results indicated that lower serum albumin levels are linked to a higher risk of asthma, particularly in non-alcohol drinkers, suggesting potential new approaches for asthma management.
Education of Patients with Asthma Leading to the Self-management of their Condition? The primary Health Care Providers' Approach.
Rev Med Chil
July 2024
Institute for Healthcare Improvement, Boston, MA, Estados Unidos.
Unlabelled: Asthma is a chronic non-communicable disease considered a serious health problem worldwide. The Chronic Care Model promotes the self-management of patients' chronic conditions. This process requires an active engagement of health professionals to provide education for patients to manage their disease better.
