1. Ultrastructural basis of airway smooth muscle contraction

Author

Seow, Chun Y. and Pare, Peter D.

Subjects
Respiratory organs -- Physiological aspects -- Research, Smooth muscle -- Physiological aspects -- Research, Muscle contraction -- Physiological aspects -- Research, Cardiopulmonary system -- Physiological aspects -- Research, Biological sciences, Physiological aspects, Research
Abstract

Abstract: The sliding filament theory of contraction that was developed for striated muscle is generally believed to be also applicable to smooth muscle. However, the well-organized myofilament lattice (i.e., the [...]

2. Structural basis for exaggerated airway narrowing

Author

Pare, Peter D., McParland, Brent E., and Seow, Chun Y.

Subjects
Smooth muscle -- Physiological aspects -- Research, Airway obstruction (Medicine) -- Risk factors -- Diagnosis -- Care and treatment -- Research, Biological sciences, Diagnosis, Care and treatment, Physiological aspects, Research, Risk factors
Abstract

Abstract: Airway hyperresponsiveness, particularly the ability of airways to narrow excessively in response to stimuli that normally cause little airway narrowing in nonasthmatic subjects, is a characteristic feature of asthma [...]

3. Cardiovascular safety of high doses of inhaled fenoterol and albuterol in acute severe asthma

Author

Newhouse, Michael T., Chapman, Kenneth R., McCallum, Andrew L., Abboud, Raja T., Bowie, Dennis M., Hodder, Richard V., Pare, Peter D., Mesic-Fuchs, Hilda, and Molfino, Nestor A.

Subjects
Albuterol -- Physiological aspects -- Evaluation, Bronchodilator agents -- Evaluation -- Physiological aspects, Fenoterol -- Physiological aspects -- Evaluation, Asthma -- Drug therapy, Health, Drug therapy, Evaluation, Physiological aspects
Abstract

Background: It has been suggested that overuse of fenoterol metered-dose inhalers (MDIs) may increase the risk of death from asthma due to cardiac arrhythmias. Our primary objective was to compare [...]

Subjects
Exercise -- Physiological aspects, Heart beat -- Measurement -- Physiological aspects, Oxygen consumption -- Measurement -- Physiological aspects, Health, Physiological aspects, Measurement
Abstract

Measurement of heart rate and oxygen uptake during incremental exercise and at maximal exercise is useful in evaluating mechanisms responsible for exercise limitation in patients with cardiopulmonary disease. Presently used [...]

7. Baseline airway caliber: a confounder in interpreting bronchoconstriction and bronchodilatation

Author

Pare, Peter D. and Wiggs, B.J.

Subjects
Bronchial spasm -- Measurement -- Physiological aspects, Airway obstruction (Medicine) -- Physiological aspects -- Measurement, Health, Physiological aspects, Measurement
Abstract

In this issue of Chest (p 984), Gross and colleagues report that the absolute amount of bronchodilatation produced by an inhaled anticholinergic agent is inversely related to the initial [FEV.sub.1] [...]
