Low-Dose Oral Ginger Improves Daily Symptom Scores in Asthma.

Pharmaceuticals (Basel)

December 2024

Department of Medicine (Pulmonology, Allergy and Critical Care), Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons, New York, NY 10032, USA.

A significant number of individuals with asthma have poorly controlled daily symptoms and utilize dietary supplements such as ginger in a quest for improved symptom control; however, its effectiveness at improving the control of symptoms is unproven. We questioned whether low-dose oral ginger would improve subjective and objective measurements of asthma control in mild-to-moderate asthmatics. We performed a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded study of a low dose (1 g twice daily) of a dietary supplement of ginger in 32 mild-to-moderate uncontrolled asthmatics over a 2-month trial period while maintaining daily conventional asthma therapies.

Introduction: Physical inactivity due to shortness of breath is common among patients with uncontrolled asthma. We evaluated the body mass composition and exercise capacity of patients with poorly controlled asthma, despite maximal inhalation therapy.

Methods:  We recruited 56 patients from the Asthma Clinic of the University Hospital of Liège between September 2020 and December 2023, and 14 healthy subjects.

Total immunoglobulin E levels in induced sputum reflect asthma control status.

Clin Transl Allergy

January 2025

Department of Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Beijing TongRen Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China.

Background: Most patients with severe asthma are sensitized to at least one allergen. Whether local immunoglobulin E (IgE) in induced sputum reflects asthma control status has not been investigated.

Methods: Patients with asthma were classified as well controlled, partly controlled, and uncontrolled asthma (UCA) according to Global Initiative for Asthma 2022 guidelines.

The Role of Nitric oxide in the sweep gas for patients receiving Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation or Cardiopulmonary Bypass.

Nitric oxide (NO) was proclaimed the 1992 "molecule of the year" by Culotta in Science magazine because of its importance in neuroscience, physiology and immunology. Inhaled NO has been in clinical use for over 35 years to decrease pulmonary hypertension and improve oxygenation. Over the last 20 years there has been much research to understand the role of nitric oxide on cell surface receptors, mitochondria, and intracellular processes which involve calcium and superoxide radicals.

Background: Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia (BPD) is a chronic lung disease affecting preterm infants, with limited prevention and treatment options. Inhaled Nitric Oxide (iNO) is sometimes used to treat Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension of the Newborn (PPHN) and Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure (HRF), and its impact on BPD development remains debated.

Objective: To assess whether iNO-related factors are potential contributors to the development of BPD Grade Ⅱ-Ⅲ in very premature infants (VPI) diagnosed with PPHN or HRF at birth using Propensity Score Matching (PSM).
