  • Title: [The treatment of early asthma].
    Author: Haahtela T.
    Journal: Nord Med; 1992; 107(4):104-7. PubMed ID: 1561067.
    Abstract:
    Asthma is an inflammatory disease of the bronchial mucosa associated with pulmonary function disorders of varying degrees of severity. The early detection of eosinophil-related mucosal inflammation constitutes both a diagnostic challenge and the key to treatment that may markedly improve outcome. Corticosteroids for inhalation are the first-line anti-inflammatory agents.
