    Breathing exercises for asthma: a randomised controlled trial

    No full text
    Background: The effect of breathing modification techniques on asthma symptoms and objective disease control is uncertain.Methods: A prospective, parallel group, single-blind, randomised controlled trial comparing breathing training with asthma education (to control for non-specific effects of clinician attention) was performed. Subjects with asthma with impaired health status managed in primary care were randomised to receive three sessions of either physiotherapist-supervised breathing training (n = 94) or asthma nurse-delivered asthma education (n = 89). The main outcome was Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (AQLQ) score, with secondary outcomes including spirometry, bronchial hyper-responsiveness, exhaled nitric oxide, induced sputum eosinophil count and Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ), Hospital Anxiety and Depression (HAD) and hyperventilation (Nijmegen) questionnaire scores.Results: One month after the intervention there were similar improvements in AQLQ scores from baseline in both groups but at 6 months there was a significant between-group difference favouring breathing training (0.38 units, 95% CI 0.08 to 0.68). At the 6-month assessment there were significant between-group differences favouring breathing training in HAD anxiety (1.1, 95% CI 0.2 to 1.9), HAD depression (0.8, 95% CI 0.1 to 1.4) and Nijmegen (3.2, 95% CI 1.0 to 5.4) scores, with trends to improved ACQ (0.2, 95% CI 0.0 to 0.4). No significant between-group differences were seen at 1 month. Breathing training was not associated with significant changes in airways physiology, inflammation or hyper-responsiveness.Conclusion: Breathing training resulted in improvements in asthma-specific health status and other patient-centred measures but not in asthma pathophysiology. Such exercises may help patients whose quality of life is impaired by asthma, but they are unlikely to reduce the need for anti-inflammatory medication

    Hermeneutika Friedrich D.E. Schleiermacher sebagai Metode Tafsir Al-Qur’an (Kajian ayat ikhlāṣ; jilbāb; sayyārah; dan al-hudā)

    No full text
    Text, reader, and author are three entities that are interlocked in a process of understanding text. For Friedrich D.E. Schleiermacher, someone can only understand the text he/she reads if he/she delves into the author\u27s psychological experience and knows exactly the phrases that the author uses in writing text. Talking about reading the Qur’an as a text found by modern humans today which its existence as a text is revealed in the seventh century in the Arabic nation, it is a must for anyone to know the Arabic grammatical used by the Qur\u27an. This article discusses linkages between the language analysis formulated by Schleiermacher and the method of understanding the Qur\u27an which is today found in the text form with special reference to the four key terms discussed. Using the descriptive-analysis method this research finds that Schleiermacher’s hermeneutic becomes relevant to Quranic studies because it can enrich existing interpretive methods. The concept of psychological hermeneutics will contribute to the realm of asbāb al-nuzūl study and the necessity of proper faith. Whereas the grammatical will contribute to the realm of understanding Qur’an as ancient Arabic text.
