Anticipating undiagnosed asthma in symptomatic adults with normal pre- and post-bronchodilator spirometry: a decision tool for bronchial challenge testing
09-12-2023CONCLUSIONS: Four readily available patient characteristics demonstrated a high sensitivity and AUC for predicting undiagnosed asthma in symptomatic adults with normal pre- and post-bronchodilator spirometry. These characteristics can potentially help clinicians to decide which individuals with normal spirometry should be investigated with bronchial challenge testing. However, further prospective validation of our decision tool is required.

Self-reported prevalence of asthma and its associated factors among adult rural population in Bangladesh: a cross-sectional study using WHO PEN protocol
09-12-2023CONCLUSION: The study emphasised asthma to be a public health concern in Bangladesh, although it seems to have decreased over the last decade. Among others, red meat intake and nutritional status were strongly associated with asthma, and the linkage among these is still a grey area that needs further exploration.

A core outcome set for bronchiectasis in children and adolescents for use in clinical research: an international consensus study
09-12-2023Improving the treatment of non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis in children and adolescents requires high-quality research with outcomes that meet study objectives and are meaningful for patients and their parents and caregivers. In the absence of systematic reviews or agreement on the health outcomes that should be measured in paediatric bronchiectasis, we established an international, multidisciplinary panel of experts to develop a core outcome set (COS) that incorporates patient and parent...

Aeroallergen sensitization patterns among patients with chronic rhinitis with or without concomitant asthma
09-12-2023CONCLUSION: Asthma is associated with multiple allergen sensitization among patients with CR. Some unique profiles of aeroallergen sensitization were observed in patients with CR and asthma. Nevertheless, no difference was found in the sensitization in relation to asthma severity, which suggest atopy is not the main underlying mechanism for asthma severity among patients with CR.

A high quality Aotearoa New Zealand dietary pattern adapting a Mediterranean diet for metabolic health: a feasibility study
09-12-2023CONCLUSION: It is feasible to recruit individuals and households/whānau to a family-based dietary intervention. Use of a meal kit home delivery service to provide food which is consistent with the intervention dietary pattern was well received. This feasibility study identified improvements to be made such as nutrition behaviour change support, more variety in food provided, more recipes, and better matching of food quantity to family size.
