Abstract:expiratory flow at 25% to 75% of pulmonary volume as well as higher biomarker elevations in both nasal messenger RNA of CXCL-10 and protein expression of CXCL8, CXCL10, CCL-2, and CCL-4 when compared with virusnegative asymptomatic conditions. Mild virus-positive colds (symptoms scores 1-4) and asymptomatic infections showed normal airway function by spirometry and fewer biomarker elevations. Viral-negative coldlike illnesses had increased nitric oxide with otherwise normal spirometry.CONCLUSIONS: Urban childr… Show more
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.
