We have tested a computer administered respiratory symptom questionnaire in patients with asthma, chronic airflow limitation, and subjects with no evidence of respiratory disease. The questionnaire was highly effective at distinguishing patients with respiratory disease from those without. However, the responses of asthmatic patients and patients with CAL to the majority of questions were similar though the responses to four out of 11 questions were significantly different. We conclude that such a computer administered questionnaire is of limited value in distinguishing patients with asthma and CAL, underlining the importance of objective tests in this differential diagnosis.

A double-blind crossover study has been performed in 14 patients with moderately severe chronic asthma to compare the bronchodilator efficacy of two dosage regimens of intravenous enprofylline (high dose=2 mg/kg bolus and 1 mg/kg/hour infusion; low dose=1 mg/kg bolus and 500 μg/kg/hour infusion) with aminophylline (5 mg/kg/bolus and 500 μg/kg/hour infusion) and placebo. The bolus injections were given over 20 minutes and infusion over 160 minutes. Twelve subjects completed the study. High dose enprofylline was more effective than aminophylline in increasing PEF (P=0.008) and FEV1 (P=0.004). Low dose enprofylline and aminophylline were of similar efficacy. Side-effects, notably headaches and nausea, were more common with enprofylline; three out of 14 subjects receiving the high dose regimen developed severe nausea. The plasma enprofylline levels achieved with the high dose regimen were greater than anticipated. Further studies are required in acute severe asthma to clarify the therapeutic role of intravenous enprofylline and the most appropriate dosage regimen.

The chest clinic based miniature radiographic service had been studied prospectively with the view of assessing its efficiency and correlating radiological and clinical findings. We conclude that such a service provides advantages for rapid patient recall and assessment. The fact that it is organized by chest physicians allows a more selected pattern of clinic referral.

Transbronchial needle aspiration of subcarinal lymph nodes has been undertaken in 60 consecutive patients with pulmonary malignancies undergoing routine fibreoptic bronchoscopy. Four aspirates from the subcarinal nodes contained malignant cells; three squamous cell carcinoma and one adenocarcinoma. Four of 40 (10%) of patients with non-small-cell carinoma of the lung had a positive aspirate. We have not confirmed the high positive rate previously reported, but nevertheless transbronchial needle aspiration provided useful staging information in some patients.
The techniques is rapid, safe and simple, and can easily be applied in a routine bronchoscopy service for all patients with suspected cancer, or selected patients under active consideration for surgery.
