Future perspectives of anticholinergics for the treatment of asthma in adults and children. Authors : Buhl R1, Hamelmann E2,3. 1 Pulmonary Department, Johannes Gutenberg University Hospital Mainz, Mainz, Germany, roland.buhl@unimedizin-mainz.de. 2 Children's Center Bethel, Evangelic Hospital Bethel, Department of Pediatrics, Bielefeld, Germany. 3 University Children's Hospital, Allergy Center Ruhr, Ruhr University Bochum, Bochum, Germany. Abstract Despite major advances in therapeutic interventions and the availability of detailed treatment guidelines, a high proportion of patients with symptomatic asthma remain uncontrolled. Asthma management is largely guided by the Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) strategy and is based on a backbone of inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) therapy with the use of additional therapies to achieve disease control. Inhaled long-acting bronchodilators alone and in combination are the preferred add-on treatment options. Although long-ac...

Adaptive immunity to SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 Alessandro

Adaptive immunity to SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 Authors:  Alessandro Sette and Shane Crotty Abstract: The adaptive immune system is important for control of most viral infections. The three fundamental compo- nents of the adaptive immune system are B cells (the source of antibodies), CD4+ T cells, and CD8+ T cells. The armamentarium of B cells, CD4+ T cells, and CD8+ T cells has differing roles in different viral infections and in vaccines, and thus it is critical to directly study adaptive immunity to SARS-CoV-2 to understand COVID-19. Knowledge is now available on relationships between antigen-specific immune responses and SARS-CoV-2 infection. Although more studies are needed, a picture has begun to emerge that reveals that CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, and neutralizing antibodies all contribute to control of SARS-CoV-2 in both non-hospitalized and hospitalized cases of COVID-19. The specific functions and kinetics of these adaptive immune responses are discussed, as well as their in...

Multiple Drug Hypersensitivity Syndrome in a Large Database. Lunes 16 de marzo

De
Multiple Drug Hypersensitivity Syndrome in a Large Database Authors: Quentin Landry  1 , Shuchen Zhang  2 , Laetitia Ferrando  1 , Jean Luc Bourrain  1 , Pascal Demoly  3 , Anca-Mirela Chiriac  4 Abstract Background: Multiple drug hypersensitivity syndrome (MDHS) is defined as confirmed drug hypersensitivity (DH) to at least 2 chemically and pharmacologically unrelated drugs. Reports of MDHS are scarce and poorly specified, and studies that diagnose MDHS on the basis of positive allergy test results are lacking. Objective: To evaluate retrospectively the frequency and characteristics of patients with MDHS in a large database. Methods: We included all patients who consulted and were tested in our Allergy Unit between September 1996 and February 2018 for a suspicion of DH. Clinical history and allergy workup results compiled in our Drug Allergy and Hypersensitivity Database were reviewed, and data of patients with a diagnosis of MDHS were retriev...
