Article Synopsis
- The study examined predictive factors for asthma exacerbation in severe asthma patients enrolled in the Okayama Severe Asthma Research Program over a one-year period.
- A total of 85 patients, mostly older adults, were analyzed, with many requiring advanced treatments according to GINA guidelines and over half treated with biologics.
- Key findings indicated that past exacerbation, low asthma control test scores, low lung function measures, and high IL-10 levels were significant predictors of future asthma exacerbation events.
