Most patients with severe asthma are exposed to SGC, which increases SGC-related AE risk. This suggests that SGC exposure should be minimized as recommended by asthma treatment guidelines.
SCHIZOPHRENIA THE ILLNESS: RELATING STRUCTURE TO FUNCTIONThe clinical heterogeneity of schizophrenia implies that a complex variety of pathophysiological processes can occur. Attempts to understand these processes were revitalised by Crow (1980) when he proposed that there were two major pathological processes: dopaminergic imbalance that generates positive symptoms, and a structural malformation of the brain responsible for negative symptoms. Crow's approach illustrates that the pattern of segregation of symptoms into distinguishable syndromes can provide a pointer towards the underlying pathophysiology. Subsequently, Liddle (1987a) performed an empirical examination of the correlations between the symptoms characteristic of chronic schizophrenia and concluded that these symptoms segregate into three syndromes: reality distortion (delusions and hallucinations); disorganisation (disorders of the form of thought and inappropriate affect); and psychomotor poverty (poverty of speech, flat affect and decreased spontaneous movement). Many other factor-analytic studies of correlations between
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
