To assess the sensitivity of isocapnic hyperventilation with cold air in detecting airway hyperreactivity in asthmatic children, we studied 13 asthmatic patients ... and 10 normal children. Cold air challenge consisted of 4 minutes of moderate hyperventilation plus another 4 minutes of maximal hyperventilation, both with subfreezing air (-16 degrees to -18 degrees C) ... We conclude that exercise and cold air-induced bronchospasm have different physiologic mechanisms, and that cold air testing can be used as a routine challenge to identify airway hyperreactivity in children. 1, record 5, English, - isocapnic%20hyperventilation%20with%20cold%20air

A number of strategies for controlling cold weather emissions have been identified, but none of them offers an optimal solution or, perhaps, even enough advantage to consider changing current practices. The alternative strategies are: - require cold temperature testing; - modify the test procedure; - issue design standards; - optional cold weather testing; and - emission control system device certification. 1, record 6, English, - optional%20cold%20weather%20testing
