Nocturnal worsening of asthma and sleep-disordered breathing
AB Bohadana, B Hannhart, DB Teculescu - Journal of Asthma, 2002 - Taylor & Francis
Asthma has a tendency to destabilize and get worse at night, probably due to a nocturnal
increase in airway inflammation and bronchial responsiveness. Nocturnal airway narrowing …
