Study of the clinical data concerning patients suffering from bronchial asthma and analysis of the autopsy data allow the conclusion about the presence of a pathogenetically validated symptomatic arterial hypertension including its drug patterns. The increased number of cases of bronchial asthma and arterial hypertension constellation attests to a considerable unbalance of the autonomous nervous system, alterations of the sympathoadrenal effects in such patients, which makes the clinical picture and course of modern bronchial asthma more complicated. The pathogenetic approach to the treatment of such patients characterized by hypersensitivity to the environmental factors, stress situations and to drugs which stimulate the sympathoadrenal system will permit one to avoid diagnostic, deontological errors, to choose sound therapy including measures aimed at preventing arterial hypertension itself.

Purpose: Oral corticosteroids (OCS) are recommended for the treatment of exacerbations in people with COPD; however, high cumulative lifetime doses (≥1000mg prednisolone-equivalent) are associated with adverse health effects. This issue is well defined in asthma but is less well understood in COPD. The aim of this study was to examine cumulative OCS dispensed to people with COPD over 12 months.

Unlabelled: Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) characterised by type 2 inflammation, including asthma, allergic rhinitis, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, atopic dermatitis, food allergies and eosinophilic esophagitis, are increasing in prevalence worldwide. Currently, there is a major paradigm shift in the management of these diseases, towards the concept of disease modification and the treatment goal remission, regardless of severity and age. Remission as a treatment goal in chronic inflammatory NCDs was first introduced in rheumatoid arthritis, and then adopted in other non-type 2 inflammatory diseases.

Background: The role of memory B cells and their subgroups in allergic rhinitis (AR) and allergen immunotherapy (AIT) remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the characteristics of memory B cells in the circulation of patients with AR and those undergoing AIT, as well as their clinical significance.
Methods: This study involved a cohort comprising 32 healthy control subjects, 39 individuals diagnosed with AR, and 31 AR patients who had received AIT for over one year.
