Peripheral Endothelial Function in Asthmatic Patients (Endothasthm)

October 1, 2018 updated by: Hopital Foch
The aim of the study is to assess the peripheral endothelial function in adult asthmatic patients and the relationship between the peripheral endothelial function and the pulmonary function.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

The primary criteria is the peripheral endothelial function that will be assessed by the measure of flow-mediated dilation (reactive hyperemia-peripheral artery tone index). The pulmonary function will be assessed by the measures of the FEV1, the forced vital capacity (FVC) and the expiratory flow between 25% and 75% (FEF25-75%). The relationship between these parameters of the pulmonary function and the peripheral endothelial function will be analyzed. In addition, a relationship between peripheral endothelial function and the level of asthma control (Asthma Control Test (ACT)), the cardiovascular risk factors (SCORE INdex) and the treatment for asthma (controllers) will be also assessed.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 65 years (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • All patients must have a clear-cut history of asthma at the time of enrolment into the trial (eventually confirmed in the past and documented by an increased hyperresponsiveness to methacholine; or a bronchodilator reversibility to a beta-2-adrenergic drug).

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with unstable asthma
  • Patients with a significant acute disease other than asthma. A significant disease is defined as a disease which, in the opinion of the investigator, may influence the results of the trial.
  • Pregnant or nursing women.
