Active clinical trials for "Asthma"

The prevalence of obesity and asthma has increased in recent decades. We investigated the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and lung function, and also tried to determine if asthma prevalence differs between obese and non-obese children. We propose this cross-sectional, retrospective analysis to figure out whether the BMI is associated with elevated prevalence of asthma, and how their lung function changes in different BMI groups.

This study will evaluate the link between blood group antigens and asthma exacerbations.

To provide information on morbidity and health care utilization for asthma for a large, well-defined population over a 20 year period.

To study three possible, but yet unproven, influences on pediatric asthma hospitalization rates - diagnostic substitution, different systems of medical care, and asthma medication use.

To identify clinical predictors of episodes of hospital-based care in people with asthma.

The primary aim of this study is to compare the respiratory function, respiratory muscle strength, functional capacity, and lower extremity strength of children with asthma and healthy children in the same age group. The secondary aim of our study is to determine the determinants of functional capacity in children with asthma.

Induced sputum samples were obtained from 27 asthmatic patients and 27 non-asthmatic subjects. Sequencing of the V4 region of 16S rRNA gene using Illumina MiSeq was performed, followed by analysis of alpha and beta diversity.

Asthma screening of 493 asthma patients

Asthma is a common respiratory disease. around the world. Asthma exacerbation is one of the major sequelae and associated with various morbidity and mortality. A satisfactory asthma control can help to bring down the risk of exacerbation and hence hospitalization. However, the real-world evidence on the clinical factors that leads to multiple admissions, when compared with single admission, due to asthma exacerbation is scarce. This study aimed at evaluating the clinical characteristics of patients who had single and multiple hospitalizations for asthma exacerbations, and exploring the risk factors that predict multiple hospitalizations.

This study aimed to investigate the dental caries experience, periodontal health and salivary properties of asthmatic and non-asthmatic children ⁄ adolescents.
