Whether small airway dysfunction (SAD), which is prevalent in asthma, helps to characterize wheezing phenotypes is undetermined. The ...
Conclusion: AHR persisted in majority of children with well-controlled asthma. Among children with well-controlled asthma, small airway function was lower in those with AHR than those without AHR. Asthma is the most common chronic lower respiratory disease in childhood throughout the world. The ...
A summary of tests that can be used to assess small airway disease in asthma is presented in Table 1. Table 1. Techniques used for the assessment of small airways disease in asthma HistologicFunctionalRadiographic Lung biopsy Spirometry FEF25-75 Plethysmography RV, RV/TLC, PC20, FVC/SVC ...
\"Small airways disease\" in children: no test is best Tests claimed to detect small airway disease were evaluated in children. Fifty-two subjects who were normal, 30 with cystic fibrosis (CF), and 35 with asthma were selected on the basis of normal spirometry, informed consent being obtain...

Small Airway Disease Small airways are defined as those with an internal diameter less than 2 mm. In health, they contribute minimally to airflow resistance.27 Because even a 50% loss of small airways only doubles airflow resistance, they have been termed the lung’s “quiet zone.”28 Howev...
Asthma is an inflammatory condition of the peripheral (small) airways resulting in airway hyper-reactivity and, among other symptoms, airflow obstruction. It is the most prevalent chronic respiratory disease in children. Reliable and patient-friendly instruments and methods are required to help ...

The airflow obstruction in () occurs mainly at the level of the small airways. In order to investigate the effect of smoking on small-airway submucosal , we used immunohistochemistry in peripheral lung sections obtained at surgery from a group of smokers (n = 22) and from a group of nonsm...
Small Airway Diseases Small airway disease is defined as a pathologic condition in which the small conducting airways are affected either primarily or in addition to alveolar or interstitial lung changes. For the pathologist, small airway disease has the same meaning as bronchiolitis, a nonspecific ...
