Sub-Optimal Compliance to Long-Term Inhalation Strategies and Poorer Health Care Outcomes Associated with Extended Tattoos in Adolescents with Mild-to-Moderate Bronchial Asthma
Tattoo extension might be used as a reliable predictor of poor compliance and higher health care costs in adolescents with mild-to-moderate asthma. Patients characterized by poor compliance to a long-term therapeutic strategy and tattooing attitude likely share some aspects of their personality profile
The Extra Cost Due to Non-Adherence to Inhaled Treatments in Adolescents with Mild-to-Moderate Persistent Asthma
In adolescents, the clinical control of mild-to-moderate atopic asthma is directly and strictly related to the degree of adherence to prescribed inhalation therapies. All clinical and economic outcomes prove dramatically poor when adherence is low, and treatable asthma can be frequently mistaken for refractory asthma in these cases. Adolescents' non-adherence impacts the burden of the disease quite substantially. Much more effective strategies ce…
Trend of Bronchial Hyperresponsiveness to Methacholine as a Cost Predictor of Mild-to-Moderate Asthma
the usual spirometric parameters are largely insufficient to reflect the effects of underlying persistent inflammation in milder forms of asthma in teenagers. In terms of clinical governance, the periodic assessment of non-specific BHR is the appropriate procedure from this point of view. Non-specific BHR proves a reliable procedure for predicting and monitoring the economic impact of mild-to-moderate asthma in teenagers over time
The Emotional Response to Pandemic of Middle- and High-School Students of an Italian Northern Province
The COVID-19 outbreak variably affected people's mental reactions worldwide but was only episodically investigated in healthy Italian teenagers. Our aim was to investigate the emotional responses of Italian middle and high school students to the pandemic. An anonymous 10-item questionnaire was distributed in pre-selected school samples. Responders had to score their perceived extent for each reaction from 0 (lowest perception) to 10 (highest perc…
Effects of Adherence to Once-Daily Treatment on Lung Function, Bronchial Hyperreactivity and Health Outcomes in Adolescents with Mild-to-Moderate Asthmoka
Adolescents with asthma are usually insufficiently adherent to regular inhalation treatments, thus limiting their effectiveness. The aim of this study is to investigate the role of adherence to single-inhaler long-acting LABA/ICS dry-powder combination o.d. in affecting lung function, bronchial hyperreactivity, and health outcomes over a twelve-month survey of a group of non-smoking adolescents with mild to moderate asthma. Methods: Age, gender, …
Lung Function Can Predict the Expected Inspiratory Airflow Rate through Dry Powder Inhalers in Asthmatic Adolescents
Several factors affect drug delivery from dry powder inhalers (DPIs). Some are related to patient's physiological characteristics, while others depend on DPIs' technical aspects. The patient's inspiratory airflow rate (IAR) affects the pressure drop and the turbulence needed to disaggregate the powder inside a DPI. The present study investigated whether lung function limitations occurring in asthmatic adolescents affect their IAR when inhaling th…
