}OBJECTIVE
The objective of this study was to examine the relationship between respiratory symptom intensity and quality and dynamic lung hyperinflation (DH) during induced bronchoconstriction in asthma.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Subjects with asthma (n = 116) underwent baseline spirometry and lung volume measurement followed by high-dose methacholine challenge testing (MCT) [maximum decrease in FEV(1) of 50% from baseline]. Dyspnea intensity (Borg scale) was measured after each dose of…

Changes in respiratory function, notably dynamic hyperinflation, are greater in obese individuals with bronchoconstriction, which may potentially alter the perception and assessment of asthma severity in obese patients with asthma.

Asthmatics' symptom perception is partly explained by indexes of airway narrowing and loss of bronchodilatation with deep breath at low levels of Bronchoconstriction, but by markers of ventilation heterogeneity and lung volume recruitment when bronchconstriction becomes more severe.

Of the 21 subjects, 19 reported increased inspiratory rather than expiratory difficulty and predominantly described sensations of reduced inspiratory capacity and unrewarded inspiratory effort, and it was the strongest predictor of symptom recovery.

Dyspnoea appears to be related to the increase in end-expiratory lung volume and not to the onset of expiratory flow limitation in acute methacholine-induced bronchoconstriction, and it is concluded that dynamic hyperinflation may occur in the absence of expiral flow limitation and that expiratories flow limitation does not represent the triggering factor to generate dynamichyperinflation.

It is found that the intensity of dyspnea sensed during histamine-induced bronchoconstriction was very variable among subjects and cannot be used to identify the asthmatics who perceive dysPnea poorly.

The results suggest that hyperinflation during MCh-induced bronchoconstriction is triggered by dynamic compression of the airways and is associated with moderate increase of DIA during expiration.

It is concluded that the increase in FRC in induced asthma is substantially influenced by persistent inspiratory intercostal and accessory muscle activity during expiration, which results in a chest wall configuration that tends to optimize diaphragmatic function.

It is concluded that in mild asthma, the sensation of chest tightness is distinct from the feeling of work and effort and is not attributable to the mechanical load imposed on the respiratory system.

Dyspnea was more intense with broncho-constriction, baseline pulmonary impairment, weight, and sex (being female), and was less intense with age and as airway responsiveness to methacholine increased (p < 0.05 for all factors).

It is concluded that limited maximal airway narrowing to methacholine in nonasthmatics is not due to a change in adrenergic, cholinergic, or ganglion-transmitted-nonadrenergic inhibitory activity nor to the release of prostaglandins.
