Bronchial Thermoplasty: A Novel Therapeutic Approach to Severe Asthma

[Clinical course of ischemic heart disease in concomitant bronchial asthma]
Abstract:
Clinical findings upon examination of advanced-age patients with ischemic heart disease and bronchial asthma demonstrated evident phasic changes in the course of IHD dependent on aggravation or remission of the asthma. Exacerbations of bronchial asthma are accompanied by attenuation of clinical and ECG manifestations of IHD whereas the arrest of the bronchoobstructive syndrome leads to return of the cardiac symptoms. The relationship may arise due to transitory metabolic abnormalities of cyclic nucleotides.

Asthma: Pathogenesis and Management
Asthma is classified as allergic and non-allergic. Allergens such as dust mites, pollen, and pet dander trigger allergic asthma, while factors like cold air, intense emotions, or exercise can induce non-allergic asthma.
Asthma-II: Pathophysiology and Classification
Additionally, environmental and genetic factors play crucial roles in determining an individual's susceptibility to asthma and the severity of their condition.
