Cost impact of monitoring exhaled nitric oxide in asthma management.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Defective nasal barrier function is implicated in allergic rhinitis, which results in persistent inflammation and clinical symptoms, among which congestion plays a prominent role. In searching ways to improve the efficacy of nasally applied drugs in this condition, we tested the hypothesis that hydroxypropyl...
