[edit] The

The article used in the first citation has been misinterpreted. Reactive airway disease is not the term defined by Brooks and his colleagues, and it does not go by the acronym RADS. It clearly states that that is reactive airways dysfunction syndrome, a term that has real meaning in pulmonary medicine, unlike reactive airway disease.

I second the above, as I was about to write something similar, based on what I read in the Fahy-O'Byrne paper cited in the article. I don't actually claim to know anything about this subject, so I don't necessarily want to be the one to change the entry, but it sure seems that it should be changed.
