    Summary: "This book discusses the community of microbial species (the microbiota, microbiome), which inhabits the large bowel of humans. Written from the perspective of an academic who has been familiar with the topic for 40 years, it provides a long-term perspective of knowledge about this high profile and fast-moving topic. Building on general ecological principles, the book aims to help the reader to understand how the microbiota is formed, how it works, and what the consequences are to humans."--Provided by publisher.

    Forty-eight children with known asthma (ranging in age from 2 to 16 years) were studied during an acute attack. Each received either terbutaline or epinephrine subcutaneously in a random double-blind fashion. Measurement of heart rate, respiratory rate, and systemic arterial systolic and diastolic blood pressures and careful clinical assessment of obstruction of the airway were made before and at 15, 30, and 60 minutes after the administration of the drugs. Appreciable and significant clinical improvement was noted in 19 of the 24 patients in both groups and was of comparable magnitude. A small, but significant, increase in heart rate was noted in those patients requiring only one injection of terbutaline, suggesting that the drug's selectivity for the lung is relative not absolute. The present study demonstrates that terbutaline is an effective bronchodilator drug in acute childhood asthma.
