(6) These findings suggest that a marked increase in goblet cells of the airways is a feature characteristic of patients with BA who die of a severe acute attack.
(7) Previous statements that the density of goblet cells is increased in nasal allergy could not be confirmed quantitatively, but investigation of larger materials is called for before any conclusions may be drawn.
