Reactance inversion in moderate to severe persistent asthma: low birth weight, prematurity effect, and bronchodilator response
Conclusion: RI is frequently found in children with moderate-severe persistent asthma, particularly in those with a history of prematurity or low birth weight. In some patients, RI disappears after the bronchodilator test; however, it, persists in those with the worst pulmonary function. RI could be a small airway dysfunction marker.PMID:38426671 | DOI:10.1080/02770903.2024.2324865
