The course of bronchitis with clinical manifestations of allergy is characterized by certain cytochemical features which (as compared with bronchitis without allergy) show an increase of deoxyribonucleic acid, increased permeability of the intracellular membranes of polynuclear leucocytes and lymphocytes, reduction of the content of cationic proteins and activity of acid phosphatase in the polynuclear leucocytes of the blood.

Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common treatable disease often diagnosed in patients with risk factors after a prolonged period with suggestive symptoms. Our qualitative study aimed to identify barriers to establishing diagnosis in the natural history of this condition.

Methods: An inductive thematic analysis was performed on structured interviews with patients, general practitioners (GPs) and pulmonologists in France.

Yuebi Plus Banxia Decoction is derived from the Synopsis of the Golden Chamber(Jin Gui Yao Lue) by ZHANG Zhong-jing. With the effects of ventilating lung, discharging heat, descending adverse Qi, and relieving cough and asthma, this prescription is mainly used to treat pulmonary distension caused by phlegm heat obstructing the lungs. Currently, it is commonly used in clinical practice for the treatment of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, acute bronchitis, pneumonia, bronchial asthma, pulmonary heart disease, and pertussis.

Associations between life-course FEV/FVC trajectories and respiratory symptoms up to middle age: analysis of data from two prospective cohort studies.

Lancet Respir Med

November 2024

Allergy and Lung Health Unit, Centre for Epidemiology and Biostatistics, Melbourne School of Population and Global Health, The University of Melbourne, Melbourne, VIC, Australia; Murdoch Childrens Research Institute, Parkville, VIC, Australia. Electronic address:

Background: Life-course lung function trajectories leading to airflow obstruction, as measured by impaired FEV/FVC (forced vital capacity), precede the onset of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We aimed to investigate whether individuals on impaired FEV/FVC trajectories have an increased burden of respiratory symptoms, including those who do not meet the spirometric criteria for COPD.

Methods: We analysed serial life-course data from two population-based cohort studies separately, which included respiratory symptoms and spirometry: the Tasmanian Longitudinal Health Study (TAHS, Australia) cohort was recruited at age 6-7 years and followed up until middle age (mean age 53 years; range 51-55); and the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA, USA) cohort was recruited at a mean age of 25 years (range 18-30) and followed up to a mean age of 55 years (range 47-64).

Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Allergy and Immunology, Morsani College of Medicine, University of South Florida, Tampa, and the James A. Haley VA Hospital, Tampa, Fla.

Asthma is a common respiratory condition with various phenotypes, nonspecific symptoms, and variable clinical course. The occurrence of other respiratory conditions with asthma, or respiratory comorbidities (RCs), is not unusual. A literature search of PubMed was performed for asthma and a variety of respiratory comorbidities for the years 2019 to 2024.
