Abstract:
We have assessed diagnostic value of impulse oscillometry for recognition of early respiratory dysfunction in asthmatic adolescents. There were 242 adolescents aged 10 to 17 under the supervision. Of them, 223 had mild stable asthma and 19 were as controls without respiratory dysfunction. According to clinical features, asthma control level and treatment all the asthmatic adolescents were subdivided into 5 groups. Lung ventilation was examined with MasterScreenBody (Erich Jaeger, Gmbh) MasterIOS including impulse oscillometry and spirometry. The impulse oscillometry can be very helpful in assessment of severity and location of respiratory obstruction in asthmatic adolescent with normal spirometric parameters.

Abstract:
Recent investigations show that the smoking prevalence among asthmatic adolescents is higher than among healthy adolescents, and the causes that lead these asthmatic adolescents to smoke are unclear. We investigated the association between family structure, parental smoking, smoking friends, and smoking in asthmatic adolescents (n = 6,487). After adjusting for sex and age, logistic regression analyses showed that nonintact family structure, parental smoking, and smoking friends are associated with smoking in adolescents with and without asthma. Asthmatic adolescents who reside in the household of a nonintact family have a 1.90 times greater risk of smoking compared with those who live with both biological parents. It is important that parents who have children with asthma be made aware that the presence of smokers in the home and adolescent fraternization with smoking friends not only favor the worsening of asthma, but also induce the habit of smoking.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Introduction: Asthma is the most common chronic disease in childhood and its prevalence has increased in recent years. Although regular physical activity (PA) is considered to be beneficial for the health of asthmatics, especially children and adolescents, it can also be one of the elements that triggers asthma. This is known as exercise-induced bronchospasm (EIB), and is considered one of the factors that limits asthmatics’ participation in PA. Objective: This study aims to review the effects of physical conditioning on EIB in asthmatic children and adolescents. Methods: A systematic review was carried out on the Pubmed, Bireme and Web of Science databases, considering publications from 1998 to April 2019. Results: Eight articles were retrieved; five of the articles presented no significant difference in EIB parameters after physical training, and three demonstrated significant benefits in EIB. Conclusion: There is insufficient evidence that physical training helps reduce the frequency and severity of EIB in young asthmatics. There are still few studies that seek to show the effect of a physical training program on the improvement of EIB in children and adolescents. It is suggested that further randomized clinical trials be conducted, to investigate the effects of physical training on EIB parameters in children and adolescents.

Abstract:
Abstract Background Asthma is the most common chronic medical condition in children. Prior observational studies of live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV) safety in asthmatic children have been limited due to confounding by indication, with LAIV restricted to patients with mild asthma. To minimize bias, we evaluated safety of LAIV in children with asthma using a natural experiment in which two medical groups, within a single health system, serving similar populations, differed in vaccination guidelines. Prior to 2010 both groups recommended inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV). Starting in 2010, one group recommended LAIV for children with asthma. Methods Asthmatic children age 2–18 years with visits to two large medical groups in the upper Midwest from 2007 to 2015 were identified and classified by severity and control using validated algorithms. Primary outcomes were lower respiratory events (LRE) occurring within 21 and 42 days after influenza immunization. Multiple records per subject were included when children received influenza vaccines in more than one season. The analysis was intention to treat with each medical group’s subjects analyzed as a group. A pre-/post-ratio of ratios (ROR) approach was used to estimate the LAIV guideline impact using a generalized linear model with a Poisson distribution, accounting for multiple records per subject and adjusting for age and asthma classification. Analyses were for the overall population, and stratified by age group: 2–4 and 5–18 years. Results A total of 7,959 observations from 4,824 unique asthmatic children were analyzed, with 1,896 from the IIV guideline and 6,061 from the LAIV guideline medical groups. Postimplementation, 67% received LAIV. Age and asthma classification adjusted ROR showed no increase in LREs using the LAIV guideline: overall ROR (95% CI): 0.79 (0.46–1.37) for LRE 21 days and 0.82 (0.56–1.20) for 42 days; age 2–4: 1.07 (0.40–2.83) for 21 days and 1.0 (0.53–1.90) for 42 days; and age 5–18: 0.72 (0.37–1.41) for 21 days and 0.75 (0.46–1.21) for 42 days. Conclusion A guideline recommending LAIV rather than IIV for asthmatic children did not result in more LREs following vaccination in children age 2–18. Guidelines for influenza vaccination in asthmatic children should be based on effectiveness studies. Disclosures All authors: No reported disclosures.

Abstract:
Asthma and obesity are two major chronic diseases in children and adolescents. Recent scientific evidence points out a causative role of obesity in asthma predisposition. However, studies assessing the real impact of excessive weight gain on lung function in children have shown heterogeneous results. In this review, the pathological mechanisms linking obesity and development of asthma in children are summarized and factors influencing this relationship are evaluated. Common disease modifying factors including age, sex, ethnicity, development of atopic conditions, and metabolic alterations significantly affect the onset and phenotypic characteristics of asthma. Given this, the impact of these several factors on the obesity–asthma link were considered, and from revision of the literature we suggest the possibility to define three main clinical subtypes on the basis of epidemiological data and physiological–molecular pathways: obese-asthmatic and atopy, obese-asthmatic and insulin-resistance, and obese-asthmatic and dyslipidemia. The hypothesis of the different clinical subtypes characterizing a unique phenotype might have an important impact for both future clinical management and research priorities. This might imply the necessity to study the obese asthmatic child with a “multidisciplinary approach”, evaluating the endocrinological and pneumological aspects simultaneously. This different approach might also make it possible to intervene earlier in a specific manner, possibly with a personalized and tailored treatment. Surely this hypothesis needs longitudinal and well-conducted future studies to be validated.

Abstract:
Background: Asthma control is the goal of asthma management. A nationwide study on this aspect was launched by the Italian Society of Paediatric Allergy and Immunology (ControL’Asma study). Objective: To define variables associated with different asthma control grades in a nationwide population of asthmatic children and adolescents. Methods: This cross-sectional real-world study included 480 asthmatic children and adolescents (333 males, median age 11.2 years) consecutively enrolled in 10 third level pediatric allergy clinics. According to the Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) document, history, medication use, perception of asthma symptoms assessed by visual analog scale (VAS), clinical examination, lung function, childhood asthma control test (cACT)/asthma control test (ACT), and asthma control level were evaluated. Results: Considering GINA criteria, asthma was well controlled in 55% of patients, partly controlled in 32.4%, and uncontrolled in 12.6%. Regarding cACT/ACT, asthma was uncontrolled in 23.2%. Patients with uncontrolled asthma had the lowest lung function parameters and VAS scores, more frequent bronchial obstruction and reversibility, and used more oral and inhaled corticosteroids (CS). Conclusions: The ControL’Asma study, performed in a real-world setting, showed that asthma in Italian children and adolescents was usually more frequent in males. Asthmatic patients had an early onset and allergic phenotype with very frequent rhinitis comorbidity. Uncontrolled and partly controlled asthma affected about half of the subjects, and the assessment of asthma symptom perception by VAS could be a reliable tool in asthma management.

Abstract:
To estimate the association between obesity and poor asthma control or risk of exacerbations in asthmatic children and adolescents, and to assess whether these associations are different by sex.A meta-analysis was performed on unpublished data from three North-European paediatric asthma cohorts (BREATHE, PACMAN (Pharmacogenetics of Asthma medication in Children: Medication with Anti-inflammatory effects) and PAGES (Pediatric Asthma Gene Environment Study)) and 11 previously published studies (cross-sectional and longitudinal studies). Outcomes were poor asthma control (based on asthma symptoms) and exacerbations rates (asthma-related visits to the emergency department, asthma-related hospitalisations or use of oral corticosteroids). Overall pooled estimates of the odds ratios were obtained using fixed- or random-effects models.In a meta-analysis of 46 070 asthmatic children and adolescents, obese children (body mass index ≥95th percentile) compared with non-obese peers had a small but significant increased risk of asthma exacerbations (OR 1.17, 95% CI 1.03–1.34; I2: 54.7%). However, there was no statistically significant association between obesity and poor asthma control (n=4973, OR 1.23, 95% CI 0.99–1.53; I2: 0.0%). After stratification for sex, the differences in odds ratios for girls and boys were similar, yet no longer statistically significant.In asthmatic children, obesity is associated with a minor increased risk of asthma exacerbations but not with poor asthma control. Sex does not appear to modify this risk.

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways, such as children and adolescents. In this sense, active video games (VGA) and resistance exercise have been gaining prominence as a form of training in this age group, promoting adhesion, motivation, reduction of pulmonary inflammation, muscular strength gain and energy expenditure. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate whether the increase of aerobic (combined) exercise reduces a pulmonary inflammation and improves clinical control in children and adolescents as trainers more effectively than only aerobic training with VGA. This is a randomized, blinded clinical trial with no registry Clinical Trials.gov: NCT03014154, 30 children and adolescents were randomly assigned to a VGA group using XBOX 360 Kinect Adventure "Reflex Ridge" (VGA group) and unladen exercises and VGA group associated with resistance exercise (VGAR group) with intensity 3 sets of 15 repetitions, with 50% of 1 RM. The training period lasted 8 weeks and involved 2 weekly sessions of 1 hour and 10 minutes, 10 minutes. heating, 30 min. of VGA, 20 min. of exercises and 10 min. the elongation. Pulmonary inflammation, pulmonary function, peak flow, respiratory muscle strength, as anthropometric variables, clinical control questionnaires and quality of life, physical fitness and peripheral muscular strength of the participants before and after the training were evaluated. The results, involving 27 study participants (13 VGA and 14 VGAR) showed reduction in lung inflammation in both groups (clinically important) but the effect size (TE) for reduction of FeNO in the VGA group was 0 , 47 (small) and in the VGAR group was 0.68 (mean). In TCP it occurred in the test week, velocity, slope and distance traveled only in the VGA group. And in the VGAR group, improvement in physical fitness and rapid cardiovascular return to basal condition by HR recovery after the test (TE = 0.90) was higher in relation to the VGA group (TE = 0.41). Maximum load increase after 1RM test (MMSS from 2 kg to 4 kg (TE = 1,28) and MMII from 30 kg to 51 kg (TE = 1,09)) was also higher in the VGAR group. In both groups, there was improvement in quality of life and better clinical control of the disease, and no participants in both groups were not in exercise-induced bronchospasm during the sessions. These results allowed us to conclude that combined training is more effective in reducing pulmonary inflammation and allows an improvement in quality of life, clinical control of the disease, aerobic fitness, physical fitness and muscular strength in children and adolescents.
A asma é uma doença inflamatória crônica das vias aéreas, as crianças e os adolescentes asmáticos têm menor tolerância ao exercício físico. Neste sentido, os videogames ativos (VGA) e o exercício resistido vem ganhando destaque como forma de treinamento nesta faixa etária, promovendo adesão, motivação, redução da inflamação pulmonar, ganho de força muscular e gasto energético. Sendo assim, o objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar se o acréscimo do exercício resistido ao aeróbio (combinado) reduz a inflamação pulmonar e melhora o controle clínico em crianças e adolescentes asmáticos de forma mais eficaz do que apenas o treinamento aeróbio com VGA. Trata-se de um Ensaio clinico controlado, randomizado, cego, com registro no Clinical Trials.gov: NCT03014154, para tal, 30 crianças e adolescentes foram avaliados e alocados de forma randomizada, para um grupo de VGA utilizando o XBOX 360 Kinect Adventure “Reflex Ridge” (grupo VGA) e exercícios sem carga e um grupo de VGA associado a exercício resistido (grupo VGAR) com intensidade 3 séries de 15 repetições, com 50% de 1 RM. O período de treinamento durou 8 semanas e envolveu 2 sessões semanais de 1 hora e 10 minutos, sendo 10 min. de aquecimento, 30 min. de VGA, 20 min. de exercícios e 10 min. de alongamento. Foi avaliado a inflamação pulmonar, função pulmonar, peak flow, força muscular respiratória, as variáveis antropométricas, questionários de controle clinico e qualidade de vida, aptidão física e força muscular periférica dos participantes antes e após os treinamentos. Os resultados, provenientes de 27 participantes que completaram o estudo (13 VGA e 14 VGAR) mostraram redução na inflamação pulmonar em ambos os grupos (clinicamente importante) porém o tamanho do efeito (TE) para redução da FeNO no grupo VGA foi de 0,47 (pequeno) e no grupo VGAR foi de 0,68 (médio). No TCP houve aumento na duração do teste, velocidade, inclinação e distância percorrida apenas no grupo VGA. E no grupo VGAR, melhora do condicionamento físico e rápido retorno cardiovascular a condição basal pela recuperação da FC após o teste (TE=0,90) foi maior em relação ao grupo VGA (TE=0,41). O aumento da carga máxima após teste de 1RM (MMSS partindo de 2 kg para 4 kg (TE=1,28) e MMII de 30 kg para 51 kg (TE= 1,09)) também foi maior no grupo VGAR. Em ambos os grupos houve melhora da qualidade de vida e melhor controle clinico da doença, além de nenhum participante de ambos os grupos não apresentarem broncoespasmo induzido pelo exercício durante as sessões. Estes resultados permitiram concluir que o treinamento combinado é mais eficaz na redução da inflamação pulmonar e possibilita a melhora da qualidade de vida, controle clinico da doença, da aptidão aeróbia, condicionamento físico e aumenta da força muscular em crianças e adolescentes asmáticos.

Abstract:
Approximately 20 per cent of the Norwegian population has or has had asthma by the age of 10. Treating children for asthma is often a cumbersome and time-consuming task. Research has shown that tangible user interfaces and mobile applications in medical care have given positive effects in a number of different settings. The BLOPP project group has previously proved that distracting the child while he/she is taking his/her asthma medicine is positive for the child's experience. In our research we aimed to answer ``How can gamification be used to motivate children to take their asthma medicine?'' and ``How can tangible user interfaces be used to help children with asthma?''. To answer these questions, we have performed a literature study, conducted semi-structured interviews with domain experts and developed prototypes. A tangible user interface, AsthmaBuddy, and a smartphone application, AsthmAPP, was developed. These prototypes were then tested on children, as a validation test. During our research we have discovered several possibilities for how gamification can be used to motivate children with asthma, in addition to some ways gamification is not applicable to the situation. We have discovered several ways a TUI may help asthmatic children and their parents, such as keeping logs, informing, reminding and distracting the children during a treatment.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Although the effect of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) on the hypothalamic- pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA) has been regarded as a “benign physiological response”, a survey published in 2002 suggested that adrenal crisis is more common in asthmatic children on ICS than previously thought. Relying on clinical features to detect chronic adrenal insufficiency secondary to corticosteroids may not be wise, as these are non-specific and can therefore easily be missed. Accurate biochemical assessment of the whole axis to detect subclinical HPA suppression (HPAS) is thus desirable. A review of the literature indicates that basal adrenal function tests, including plasma cortisol profiles, do not identify which children can appropriately respond to stress. There is no evidence to suggest that the degree of the physiological adjustment of the HPA to ICS and/or nasal steroids (by reducing basal cortisol production), predicts HPAS. Cortisol profiles should therefore only be used to demonstrate differences in systemic activity of various ICS and delivery devices. Only two tests, considered as gold standard adrenal function tests [the insulin tolerance test (ITT) and the metyrapone test] can assess the integrity of the whole axis.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die outeurs van ´n opname wat in 2002 gepubliseer is stel voor dat ´n bynierkrisis meer algemeen by asmatiese kinders, wat inhalasie kortikosteroïede ontvang, voorkom as wat voorheen gedink is. Dit is strydig met die gevestigde opvatting dat die effek van IKS op die hipotalamiese-hipofise-bynier-as (HHB) ’n “goedaardige fisiologiese reaksie” is. Die kliniese kenmerke van kroniese bynierontoereikendheid sekondêr tot die gebruik van kortikosteroïede (KS) is nie-spesifiek en gevolglik onbetroubaar. ´n Akkurate biochemiese toets van subkliniese HBB onderdrukking (HHBO) sou gevolglik waardevol wees. ´n Literatuur oorsig toon dat toetse van basale bynierfunksie, insluitend plasma kortisol (K) profiele, nie kinders uitken wat toepaslik op stres sal reageer nie. Daar is geen bewyse dat die graad van fisiologiese aanpassing van die HHB, soos aangedui deur laer K-vlakke, na die gebruik van IKS en/of nasale steroïede (NS), HHBO voorspel nie. Serum K profiele is dus slegs van waarde om die sistemiese aktiwiteit van verskillende IKS en toedieningsstelsels te ondersoek. Slegs twee toetse, naamlik die insulien toleransie toets (ITT) en die metyrapone -(MTP)-toets (wat beide as die goue standaard van bynier funksie beskou word), kan die integriteit van die hele as meet.

Abstract:
Atopic asthma is characterized by excessive T helper 2 (Th2)-like immunity to allergens in the bronchial mucosa. The Th2-cytokine interleukin (IL)-4 induces IgE production, while the Th2-cytokine IL-5 promotes eosinophilic inflammation in the airways of asthmatics. Most asthmatics are atopic, but a subgroup is non-atopic. We hypothesize that allergen-induced Th2, particularly IL-5, responses can be observed in peripheral blood in both atopic and non-atopic asthmatic children but not in healthy control children. The aim of the present study was to determine IL-4, IL-5, IL-9, IL-10, IL-13 and IFN-γ secretion induced from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) by a broad panel of inhalant allergens (timothy, cat, birch, dog and house dust mite) in asthmatic children with and without sensitization. The study included 13 atopic asthmatic, 5 non-atopic asthmatic, and 12 non-atopic non-asthmatic children. PBMC were stimulated with allergens and cytokine production was measured with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Higher levels of cat and dog antigen-induced IL-5 release were more commonly observed in both atopic and non-atopic asthmatics than in controls. Children with atopic, but not non-atopic, asthma produced higher levels of allergen-induced IL-4 and IL-9 than controls. Non-atopic asthmatics produced more IL-10 than atopic asthmatics after cat stimulation. High levels of eosinophilia-associated IL-5 responses are induced by cat and dog allergen in both atopic and non-atopic asthmatic children. The Th2 cytokines IL-4 and IL-9 were associated only with atopic asthma, probably due to their IgE-inducing properties.

Abstract:
Asthma is a common chronic disease for children and is a leading cause for their hospitalization. Despite its negative health impact, a local survey has shown that children with asthma as well as their parents have a lack of understanding for asthma management (Wong, Wong, Chung & Lau, 2001). However, to help asthmatic children to better cope with their condition, it is important for health care professional such as nurses to enhance their knowledge in asthma management. Recent empirical research has shown that education promoting knowledge of asthma management can improve health outcomes in asthmatic children. Therefore, it is important to develop an evidence-based asthma education guideline for them. This dissertation aims to evaluate the empirical evidence of the education program for asthmatic children, with the age ranging from 5 to 18, and their parents. The goal of the proposed program is to reduce their re-hospitalization rate by enhancing their knowledge of asthma care. A translational nursing research was conducted and 10 studies focusing on asthma education program for children and their parents were identified from electronic databases. Critical appraisal was performed using the recognized assessment tool, named the Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN) (2008). Recommendations were developed based on the data extracted from the review. Based on the literatures reviewed, it was found that a 45-to-60 minute one-to-one educational intervention conducted by nurses using self-management plan is the most effective method for improving the health outcomes for asthmatic children. A plan of translating the empirical information extracted from the review into practice was developed and the potential of implementation was assessed. Based on the assessment, it was found that there is high transferability of the findings from the review and the proposed innovation is feasible in the selected clinical setting. In addition, the benefits generated from the proposed innovation also outweigh its cost. An evidence-based guideline was then developed based on the high and medium level of evidence. The grades of the recommendation were stated as well. A comprehensive communication plan targeting on various stakeholders was prepared. A pilot study was designed to examine the feasibility of the proposed innovation before the full-scale implementation. The outcomes of the proposed innovation include the re-hospitalization rate of asthmatic children, the patients’ and nurses’ level of knowledge in asthma care, the satisfactory level of patients and nurses towards the innovation, the competency of nurses in conducting the innovation, and the utilization rate and the cost of the innovation. They would be evaluated using appropriate methodologies. The proposed innovation would be considered as effective if the primary outcome, the re-hospitalization rate of asthmatic children is reduced.
