Goals. To reveal the clinical efficacy and safety of Asmanex in patients with moderate and severe bronchial asthma (BA), treated with inhaled and/or systemic glucocorticosteroids (GCS), depending on the severity and level of control. Methods. 40 patients (age 18 to 65 years) were treated with Asmanex with equivalent to prior therapy with inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) doses or in combination with systemic corticosteroids prior therapy (without increasing the dose of systemic corticosteroids) for 3 months. Efficacy was assessed before and after the treatment on a background of Asmanex treatment by the need of additional using of agonists of β 2-adrenoreceptors, severity of daytime and nighttime asthma symptoms, dynamics of spirometry parameters. The efficacy of Asmanex was compared with the original baseline therapy of other inhaled corticosteroids at equivalent doses using the new delivery system.

The socio-scientific issue that we studied was methods of birth control and how they may be influenced by political, ethical and religious controversies. In our study we uncovered how much knowledge an average person has about such a common and crucial issue. We concluded, based on our mini study, that 74% of high school students attending Catholic school in 2012 did not receive any education about methods of birth control. In addition, 85% of the general public that we surveyed are supporters of birth control. We feel that young people need more education about birth control. We would like to spread awareness about primary types of birth control methods. We wrote letters to six popular teenage and young adult magazines. We also created a video featuring an interview with our health education teacher, which we posted to YouTubeTM with her permission. Educating youth can help change the rates of teenage pregnancy and avoid any unnecessary controversy about emergency methods such as abortion.
