  • Topična uporaba kortikosteroidov pri zdravljenju astme = Topic use of corticosteroids in asthma management
    Maček, Vasilija
    Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways involving a characteristic pattern of airway infiltration with lymphocytes, eosinophils, and mast cells, subepithelial deposition of collagen, ... and hypertrophy and hyperplasia of smooth muscle and of goblet cells and submucosa glands. The consequences of this chronic process include episodic or persistent symptoms, bronchial hyperreactivity, attacks of bronchoconstriction that may require emergency care or hospitalization and can lead to death, impairment in qualityof life, and the development of irreversible airflow obstruction. Careful pathological studies have shown that inhaled corticosteroid therapy can reverse or supress airway inflammation, and prospective controlled clinical trials have proven that it can also improve symptoms, reduce bronchial hyperreactivity, reduce the frequency and severity of attacks and the risk of asthma fatality. It is also highly likely, althrough not yet proven, that inhaled corticosteroid therapy reduces, prevents or retards airway wall remodeling. Early intervention with inhaled corticosteroids is important in children to reduce the risk of diminished lung function. The disease can be satisfactory managed with low doses if treatment is started early.
