In allergic rhinitis (AR) patients referred to a specialist, the features of AR as defined by the ARIA classification are not able to predict the presence of asthma, therefore all such patients should be assessed for asthma.
Inhibition of serum TxB2 generation and of thromboxane metabolite urinary excretion by the lower dosage of aspirin, although substantial, still appeared incomplete. The small but significant further increase of serum TxB2 inhibition by the higher dosage was accompanied by an even greater inhibition of urinary excretion. We suggest that in some instances this difference would translate into a greater clinical benefit with the higher aspirin dosage. Our findings may also contribute to better definition of the recent concept of 'aspirin resistance'.
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.
