  1. MECHANISMS MEDIATING PEDIATRIC SEVERE ASTHMA AND POTENTIAL NOVEL THERAPIES- DR AMARJIT MISHRA They may also require frequent use of rescue medications, such as short-acting bronchodilators, and may have recurrent asthma exacerbations or attacks. That require emergency medical care.

  2. THE MECHANISM BEHIND PEDIATRIC SEVERE ASTHMA According to Amarjit Mishra, in some cases of severe asthma. There is chronic inflammation and repeated episodes of bronchoconstriction which leads to structural changes in the airway tissues, such as thickening of the airway walls and hypertrophy of smooth muscle cells.

  3. CURRENT TREATMENT OPTIONS As oral corticosteroids, biologic agents, or other advanced treatment options, to achieve optimal asthma control. Due to the sensitivity of the disease and vulnerability of young children, the management of pediatric severe asthma typically requires close monitoring

  4. POTENTIAL NOVEL THERAPIES As Janus kinase (JAK) or phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE-4) are being studied for their potential to reduce inflammation and improve asthma control. Amarjit Mishra Auburn University, being an expert in pulmonology holds a view. That these inhibitors can also be used as potential targets for the treatment of severe asthma.

  5. It is important to note that these potential novel therapies are still being investigated in clinical trials and are not yet. Widely available for routine clinical use in pediatric severe asthma. Further research is conducted by great scientists such. As Amarjit Mishra to determine their safety, efficacy, and long-term effects of such therapy options.
