[Rhinobronchial reflex in patients with bronchial asthma].
Altogether 229 patients with bronchial asthma and 57 patients with chronic bronchitis (preasthma) were examined. Diseases of the respiratory tracts, mainly of the nasal cavity and accessory nasal sinuses were found in 273 (95.45%) patients. There was correlation of the cell structure of the upper and lower respiratory tracts in patients with bronchial asthma as well as correlation in the status of the nasal and bronchial cavity mucosa. A raised rhinobronchial reflex was revealed in 33.7% of patients with bronchial asthma and a raised olfactobronchial reflex in 46.2%. Latent hyperreactivity of the bronchi was detected in 21.7% of the patients with vasomotor rhinopathy without concomitant pulmonary pathology.
