“…In addition, a recent international study that applied the FaMM to 142 parents of children with asthma identified a mean parental mutuality score close to the present study (32.14) and an intimate relation with asthma control ( 13 ) . According to the authors conclusions, the families that worked together to deal with the challenges associated with asthma had fewer difficulties in family life and, consequently, better control of childhood asthma.…”

“…The term parental mutuality corresponds to the feelings of intimacy, connection and understanding between the couple regarding the childs health condition ( 11 ) ; it refers to the parents ability to work collaboratively ( 9 ) . A number of studies indicate that parental mutuality reflects positively on the familys ability to deal with the challenges of the childs chronic condition ( 12 - 13 ) ; and that it is associated with lower levels of maternal anxiety and depression ( 14 ) and better psychological functioning ( 9 ) . In addition, the couples strong collaboration reduces family stress and positively influences the childs quality of life ( 15 ) .…”

Objective: to analyze the effect of parental mutuality on the quality of life related to the health of mothers who care for children with special health needs. Method: an observational, analytical and cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach. The following instruments were applied to 181 caregiving mothers: The Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short Form and Family Management Measure (Parental Mutuality subscale). In the statistical analysis, Spearman’s correlation and univariate and multivariate linear regression were used. Results: the total score of parental mutuality was 30.8, indicating a satisfactory perception of the caregiving mother about the way the couple shares decisions regarding the care of the child. In the multivariate regression analysis, parental mutuality maintained a statistically significant association with the domains of pain, social aspects and emotional limitations of quality of life related to health (p=<0.001, 0.003, 0.002), respectively. Conclusion: parental mutuality has a positive effect on some domains of quality of life related to health. It is recommended to plan actions aimed at strengthening the complicity and connection between the couple, especially in matters related to the care of the child with special health needs.

“…Studies from China and one from South America, used FeNO measurement in the management of preschool asthma ( 63 – 65 ), noting the strong association with IgE mediated inflammation and ICS efficacy ( 63 ). However, it was also suggested that FeNO may be less useful in the preschool age group for detecting ICS response, as the mean FeNO level was significantly higher only in the “older” age group than the cut off values reported in other studies for the diagnosis of asthma ( 63 ).…”

BackgroundThe burden of respiratory disease is high in low-middle income countries (LMIC). Pulmonary function tests are useful as an objective measure of lung health and to track progression. Spirometry is the commonest test, but its use is limited in preschool children. Other lung function methods have been developed but their use in LMIC has not been well described.AimTo review the use of preschool lung function testing in children in LMIC, with particular reference to feasibility and clinical applications.MethodsElectronic databases “PubMed”, “Scopus”,” Web of Science”, and “EBSCO host” were searched for publications in low and middle income countries on preschool lung function testing, including spirometry, fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO), oscillometry, interrupter technique, tidal breathing and multiple breath washout (MBW), from 1 January 2011 to 31 January 2022. Papers in English were included and those including only children ≥6 years were excluded.ResultA total of 61 papers from LMIC in Asia, South America, Africa, Eurasia or the Middle East were included. Of these, 40 included spirometry, 7 FeNO, 15 oscillometry, 2 interrupter technique, and 2 tidal breathing. The papers covered test feasibility (19/61), clinical application (46/61) or epidemiological studies (13/61). Lung function testing was successful in preschool children from LMIC. Spirometry was the most technically demanding and success gradually increased with age.ConclusionPreschool lung function testing is under-represented in LMIC for the burden of respiratory disease. These tests have the potential to strengthen respiratory care in LMIC, however access needs to be improved.

Malondialdehyde in Nasal Fluid: A Biomarker for Monitoring Asthma Control in Relation to Air Pollution Exposure

Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and ozone (O3) may exert oxidative damage in the nose, which is hypothesized to be associated with worsened asthma symptoms. This study, hence, is to explore whether an oxidative stress biomarker, malondialdehyde (MDA) in the nasal fluid, has the potential to aid personalized asthma control. In a panel study of 43 asthmatic children, 5–13 years old, each child was measured 4 times with a 2-week interval between consecutive clinic visits. At each visit, nasal fluid and urine samples were collected, and fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) was measured as a biomarker of pulmonary inflammation. In addition to nasal MDA, urinary MDA and 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) were measured as biomarkers of systemic oxidative stress. We also assessed asthma symptoms using the Childhood Asthma-Control Test (C-ACT). We found that interquartile range (IQR) increases in 24 h average personal PM2.5 exposure (22.2–33.5 μg/m3), estimated 0 to 5 days prior to a clinic visit, were associated with increased nasal MDA concentrations by 38.6–54.9%. Similarly, IQR increases in 24 h average personal O3 exposure (7.7–8.2 ppb) estimated 2 to 4 days prior were associated with increased nasal MDA by 22.1–69.4%. Only increased PM2.5 exposure was associated with increased FeNO. Increased nasal MDA concentration was associated with decreased total and individual C-ACT scores, indicating worsening of asthma symptoms. However, no significant associations were observed between urinary MDA or 8-OHdG and C-ACT scores. The results confirm that oxidative stress plays an important role in linking air pollution exposure and adverse respiratory health effects. These findings support that MDA in the nasal fluid may serve as a useful biomarker for monitoring asthma status, especially in relation to PM2.5 and O3 exposures, two known risk factors of asthma exacerbation.
