Eur J Clin Invest
. 2003 Nov;
33(12):1090-4.
PMID: 14636292
Background: It has been recently shown that humming greatly increases nasal nitric oxide (NO). This is most likely owing to a rapid washout of sinus NO caused by the oscillating...

Eur J Clin Invest
. 2002 Nov;
32(11):858-61.
PMID: 12423328
Background: Paranasal sinuses and the nose are important sources of nitric oxide (NO) in humans but the relevance of NO production to the control of nasal airway plasma exudation and...

Clin Sci (Lond)
. 2001 Nov;
101(6):645-50.
PMID: 11724652
Airway nitric oxide (NO) homoeostasis is influenced by chemical and mechanical stimuli in humans; airway epithelium, which is an important site of NO production, is sensitive to osmotic challenge. The...

Eur J Clin Invest
. 2001 May;
31(5):462-6.
PMID: 11380599
Background: Nitric oxide has been detected by chemiluminescence in the lumen of nasal airway, which is increased in nasal breathing in patients with seasonal rhinitis during a chronic exposure. The...

Allergy
. 2000 Aug;
55(8):757-61.
PMID: 10955702
Background: The nose is an important source of nitric oxide (NO) in man, but the relevance of NO production to the response to inflammatory mediators is not clear. Methods: In...
