Luigino Calzetta et al.

Summary: The findings of this study demonstrate increased airway hyperresponsiveness and inflammation in LPS-challenged equine isolated bronchi. IL-6 may play a crucial role in the development of airway hyperresponsiveness. Targeting IL-6 with specific antibodies could be an effective strategy for treating equine asthma.

Effectiveness and Durability of mRNA Vaccine-Induced SARS-CoV-2-Specific Humoral and Cellular Immunity in Severe Asthma Patients on Biological Therapy

Michal Podrazil et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the effectiveness and durability of mRNA vaccine-induced SARS-CoV-2-specific humoral and cellular immunity in severe asthma patients on biological therapy. The findings suggest that treatment with biological therapy does not compromise the effectiveness or durability of COVID-19 vaccine-induced immunity, although age may negatively impact the humoral response to the vaccine.

Summary: The aim of this study was to implement a web-form based pharmacovigilance plan for the spontaneous notification of adverse events to the Comirnaty (R) COVID-19 vaccine. Results showed that the most clinically relevant events reported were tachycardia, dyspnea, chest pain, etc. It was also found that there was a higher frequency of severe events in the second dose.

Reduced risk of COVID-19 hospitalization in asthmatic and COPD patients: a benefit of inhaled corticosteroids?

Paola Rogliani et al.

Summary: This study conducted a pooled analysis to identify specific patient characteristics that may modulate COVID-19 hospitalization risk. The most frequent comorbidities in hospitalized COVID-19 patients were found to be hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and cardiovascular and/or cerebrovascular diseases, while the most common clinical signs were fever and cough. Patients with asthma or COPD had a lower risk of hospitalization, possibly due to the protective effect of inhaled corticosteroids commonly used in these conditions globally.

Summary: The FDA has authorized emergency use of Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines, but individuals with severe allergic reactions are advised against receiving them. The CDC recommends observing those with a history of immediate allergies or anaphylaxis for 30 minutes post-vaccination, while all others should be observed for 15 minutes.

Summary: The addition of glycopyrronium bromide to beclomethasone dipropionate/formoterol fumarate combination showed significant synergistic bronchorelaxation in vitro. However, adding salbutamol on top of BDP/FF/GB formulation did not significantly improve small airway resistance. On the other hand, salbutamol significantly increased FEV1 when administered with the triple combination therapy.
