Exercise 2 Questions 5-8 Read the article below and answer the questions on the opposite page. PERSONAL TIME: YOUR HEALTH
The Breath of Life
Inhaled steroids now seem to be safe for children with moderate asthma. What you should know.
DOCTORS HAVE LONG BEEN AWARE THAT DAILY treatment of inhaled steroids is critical to saving the lives of patients with. Although the drugs cannot stop an asthma attack (medications are needed for that), inhaled steroids are very good at counteracting the chronic inflammation that predisposes the lungs to asthma attacks in the first place. Until now, however, many physicians have hesitated to use inhaled steroids to treat milder cases of asthma in children. The drugs have side effects ? most notably an apparent slowing of bone growth ? that make them seem less than ideal for youngsters, whose bones are still developing. But two reports published in the New England Journal of Medicine conclude that the benefits of inhaled steroids outweigh the risks in children after all. In the first study, which tracked more than 1,000 North American kids ages 5 to 12 suffering from mild to moderate asthma, researchers found that boys and girls on inhaled steroids were much less likely to be rushed to the emergency room to need treatment with even more powerful drugs. While these kids were indeed about 1 cm shorter than children on non-steroid drugs after the first year of treatment, the lag in growth rates quickly disappeared. Results from the children's X rays indicate there should be no measurable difference in adult height. Similarly, in the second study, of 211 adults from Denmark who started treatment with inhaled steroids as children, researchers found no long-term effect on height. These results should reassure parents who have been told their son or daughter needs inhaled steroids.
