Background: Asthma in the elderly is usually considered homogeneous and non-atopic.
Objective: To compare clinical, functional and immunological features between elderly asthmatics with long-standing asthma (LSA) and those with late-onset asthma (LOA).
Methods: Eighty-two asthmatics older than 64 were included into LSA (asthma onset before age 40; = 46) and LOA (asthma onset from 40 years of age on; = 36) groups.
