(2012) Is a Single Blood Eosinophil Count a Reliable Marker for “Eosinophilic Asthma?”. Journal of Asthma 49 , 807-810 /Spector S. L., Tan R. A. (2012). Is a single blood eosinophil count a reliable marker for “eosinophilic asthma?” . J. Asthma 49 , 807–81010.3109/02770903.2012...
The highest variability was seen in moderate asthmatics. These findings would appear to place the utility of a single eosinophil count in question.Spector,S.L.Tan,R.A.The journal of asthmaSpector SL, Tan RA. Is a single blood eosinophil count a reliable marker for "eosinophilic asthma?". ...
Conclusions Some COPD patients without concomitant asthma showed a phenotype of high blood eosinophils. Alveolar damage may be related to eosinophilic inflammation in patients with COPD without asthma and thickening of the central airway wall.Peer
ROC curve analysis identified that blood eosinophil percentage count was the best predictor for eosinophilic asthma, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.907 ( P 9/L. The blood eosinophil/lymphocyte ratio (ELR) and eosinophil/neutrophil ratio (ENR) were increased in eosinophilic asthma, ...
Eosinophil cationic Protein in Serum from Adults with Asthma and with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Levels of eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) in serum are abnormally high in bronchial asthma, and may reflect the degree of eosinophilic inflammation in th...

Common Causes of Eosinophilia or Hypereosinophilia Allergic conditions, like asthma, atopic Dermatitis (eczema), allergic rhinitis (hay fever). Certain food allergies, like milk allergies (not food intolerance). Infections,human intestinal parasites, invasive fungal infections like Pneumocystic carinii infe...
21 These findings suggest that the mixed granulation in our cultured cells (Fig 1) is not peculiar to our in vitro system and may reflect the existence of progenitors that retain differentiation programs for both eosinophil and basophil lineages. Indeed, others have recognized mixed eosinophilic-...
Although there is a systemic component to the pathophysiology of asthma, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) found in the blood of asthmatic individuals may not translate to those found in lung. Results from a recent U-BIOPRED study showed that DEGs associated with eosinophilic TH2 asthma in ...
Measuring airway inflammation in asthma: eosinophils and eosinophilic cationic protein in induced sputum compared with peripheral blood. BACKGROUND: Airway eosinophilic inflammation is a characteristic feature of asthma. This can be assessed directly by measurement of eosinophils and eosinop... E Pizzichini...
