TL;DR
Different dimensions of mood were associated with transitory changes in asthma symptoms and PEFR, and this may be one reason why individuals with asthma misperceive the severity of their symptoms in relation to underlying airways obstruction.
Abstract
Different dimensions of mood were associated with transitory changes in asthma symptoms and PEFR. This may be one reason why individuals with asthma misperceive the severity of their symptoms in relation to underlying airways obstruction.

The LancetRegular inhaled beta-agonist treatment in bronchial asthma
1,074 Citations1990M.R. Sears, D. Robin Taylor +7 more
Regular inhalation of a beta-sympathomimetic agent was associated with deterioration of asthma control in the majority of subjects, suggesting that the trends to use of regular, higher doses or longer-acting inhaled beta-SympathomIMetic treatment may be an important causal factor in the worldwide increase in morbidity from asthma.

522 Citations1980M Hetzel, T.J.H. Clark
Nocturnal asthma probably represents an exaggeration of a normal circadian rhythm in airway calibre in normals and asthmatics and the amplitude of the PEFR rhythm is an index of bronchial lability and is thus valuable in monitoring asthma patients.
New England Journal of MedicineChemosensitivity and Perception of Dyspnea in Patients with a History of Near-Fatal Asthma
500 Citations1994Yoshihiro Kikuchi, Shinichi Okabe +5 more
Reduced chemosensitivity to hypoxia and blunted perception of dyspnea may predispose patients to fatal asthma attacks.
JAMAChanging Patterns of Asthma Mortality
500 Citations1990Kevin B. Weiss
Neither changes in International Classification of Diseases coding nor improved recognition of asthma, as demonstrated by trends in autopsy rates or rates of in-hospital deaths, seems to explain the increasing mortality of the 1980s.
New England Journal of MedicineAcute Bronchial Asthma
491 Citations1973E. R. McFadden, Roger Kiser +1 more
Altered lung mechanics appear to result from persistent airflow obstruction residing in peripheral airways that is not sufficient to induce symptoms at rest but compromises pulmonary function and may serve as a base for future recurrent episodes of asthma.
PainSequential daily relations of sleep, pain intensity, and attention to pain among women with fibromyalgia
468 Citations1996Glenn Affleck, Susan Urrows +3 more
There was a significant bi‐directional within‐person association between pain attention and sleep quality that was not explained by changes in pain intensity, and a night of poorer sleep was followed by a significantly more painful day.

246 Citations1991Randy J. Larsen, Margaret Kasimatis
A daily event approach is used to model three temporal parameters of day-to-day health: the occurrence rate of symptoms, the duration of Symptoms, and the covariation of symptoms and moods over time, and to examine whether these three models are related to personality variables commonly used in health psychology research.
Journal of AsthmaAsthma and Emotion: A Review
236 Citations1993Paul M. Lehrer, Susan Isenberg +1 more
This review of the empirical literature on the relationship between asthma and emotion presents an explanatory model of the connection between them, and predicts are presented for research on this model, and for the psychological treatment of asthma.
BMJAccuracy of perception of severity of asthma: patients treated in general practice.
217 Citations1993Adrian Kendrick, C M B Higgs +2 more
In general practice a high proportion of asthmatic patients do not reliably detect changes in their lung function, which reinforces the need for careful objective assessment of lung function in the management of asthma.

The results suggest that the sleep disturbances found in affective disorders may not be pathological but instead represent the extremes of normal relationships between sleep and well-being.

Poor diary completion may result from having unreasonable expectations of patients and giving incomplete instructions, and electronic, time coded diaries could ensure better quality of records.

76 Citations1997Andrea Apter, Glenn Affleck +6 more
Mood states were influenced by asthma symptoms, but the converse was not true; those patients with lower FEF25-75 values tended to be less accurate perceivers.
Journal of Psychosomatic ResearchMood and somatic symptoms
53 Citations1987Lars‐Olof Persson, Lennart Sjöberg
It was found that the more diffuse somatic discomforts showed the highest correlations with mood, and the dominating explanatory factor was from current symptom reports to current mood reports and not vice versa.

52 Citations1992Marianne Mann, Orn Eliasson +2 more
No significant relationship was found between the change in asthma severity and compliance with the beclomethasone regimen, and the concept of severity-modulated compliance with inhaled corticosteroids was not supported.
Annals of Allergy Asthma & ImmunologyClinical Evaluation of Asthma
51 Citations1996James T.C. Li, Edward J. O’Connell
The medical history and physical examination are moderately effective in diagnosing asthma and estimating its severity, and Objective measures of lung function are necessary for the accurate diagnosis of asthma.
Journal of Allergy and Clinical ImmunologyCommon measures of asthma severity lack association for describing its clinical course
48 Citations1994Andrea Apter, Richard ZuWallack +1 more
The commonly used measures of asthma severity, symptom scores, peak flow rate, and beta-agonist use may not be interchangeable in describing the clinical course.

Compared to the control group, levels of fatigue were higher in the CFS group, yet there were no differences in overall level of positive or negative affect, and strong diurnal patterns of affect were observed for fatigue measures indicating that it was higher in the morning and evening.

38 Citations1990Michael E. Hyland
The relationship between mood and peak flow (PEF) was examined in 10 adult asthmatics by taking twice daily readings over 15 days and the size of the mood-PEF relationship correlated significantly with the percentage difference between morning and evening PEF.

35 Citations1985Andrew Steptoe, Rowena Holmes
The relationship between mood and fluctuations in peak expiratory flow rate (PEF) was studied in seven mildly asthmatic adult men and seven non-asthmatic controls and significant correlations were found in six of the asthmatics.
