Chest 2010,Apr,01;137(4):790-6; (PMID: 20081096)
BACKGROUND: Analysis of exhaled breath by biosensors discriminates between patients with asthma and healthy subjects. An electronic nose consists of a chemical sensor array for the detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and an algorithm for pattern recognition.[...]

[...]The Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) is widely used as a measure of HRQOL and may be a particularly suitable primary outcome in pediatric asthma clinical trials. OBJECTIVES: To examine the reliability, validity, and responsiveness to clinical change of the PedsQL 4.0 Generic Core Scales and PedsQL [...]

[...]BACKGROUND: Breathing dry, cold air may cause bronchoconstriction in asthmatics working with self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). Air delivered by SCBA is cooler than ambient air.[...] by a physician during conscription, a high proportion of recruits assigned to work with SCBA smoke, have respiratory symptoms, and have a positive BCTM suggesting current asthma. BCTM has a high sensitivity to predict a significant fall in FEV(1) after exercise with SCBA and participants with a positive BCTM tend to use more health care resources during basic military training.[...]
