Association of Blattella germanica sensitization with atopic diseases in pediatric allergic patients
2011
To cite this article: La Grutta S, Cibella F, Passalacqua G, Cuttitta G, Liotta G, Ferlisi A, Viegi G. Association of Blattella germanica sensitization with atopic diseases in pediatric allergic patients. Pediatr Allergy Immunol 2011; 22: 521–527. Abstract Background: The extent to which the sensitization to the German cockroach Blattella germanica (BG) affects onset/presence of rhinoconjunctivitis (RC) in children is unknown. Objectives: The present work was aimed to assess the prevalence of BG sensitization in an outpatient pediatric population from an allergy clinic, the association with allergic diseases, and the effect of age in children with allergic sensitization. Methods: Five hu…

The effects of canrenone on left ventricle diastolic function, left atrial compliance and on atrial natriuretic hormones in some subjects with “chall…
2010
STUDY PROPOSAL: Proposal to evaluate the response of left ventricular function of 30 patients with challenge hypertension to 50 or 100 mg of canrenone. Evaluation will be performed by repeated control of echocardiographic parameters, left atrial function and NT-proBNP. We also will use Tissue Doppler Imaging to identify and follow early left ventricular dysfunction. Careful monitoring of serum creatinine and electrolyte levels will be carried out. At the end of the study we will be able to identify the best dose of aldosterone we can recommend to control hypertension and left ventricular diastolic dysfunction. In possible successive evaluations other end points such as mortality, morbility,…
IL-17 and Th17-cells as markers of disease progression in pediatric allergic diseases. A therapeutic approach in an “in vitro” model
2011
Rationale: Th17 cells and IL-17 play a role in allergy development and progression. Objective: To investigate whether IL-17-producing Th17 cells characterized systemic and airway inflammation in children with concomitant allergic rhinitis and asthma and whether Budesonide (Bud) and Formoterol (Form), alone or in combination, might provide a therapeutic strategy for controlling the inflammatory events associated with IL-17. Methods: We tested IL-17 levels in plasma (P), nasal wash (NW) and induced sputum (IS) from healthy (HC) and asthmatic children (intermittent=IA or mild-moderate=MA) with concomitant rhinitis (intermittent=IR or persistent=PR). Then we tested the expression of intracellul…
