Hering-Breuer reflex, lung volume and position in prematurely born infants.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Asthma is a chronic lower airway inflammatory disease. Nitric oxide is an inflammatory mediator produced endogenously in the airway. Previous studies have demonstrated that the fractional concentration of exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) is increased in asthma. OBJECTIVES:To investigate if FeNO concentrations we...
