| Popis: | Exhaled breath condensate (EBC) analysis is a noninvasive method to assess the lower respiratory tract. In human subjects, EBC hydrogen peroxide (HTo determine associations between EBC biomarkers and cytological and endoscopic definitions of lower airway inflammation (LAI) while controlling for sampling and environmental variables.Prospective, cross-sectional study.Clinical, endoscopic and airway cytological findings from 47 horses were compared with EBC pH and concentrations of HEBC pH and HLAI is challenging to categorise due to a variety of clinical and cytological phenotypes. Although the study was designed to overcome this limitation, numbers of horses were small in some categories.EBC pH and H |
