Introduction: The burden of severe asthma on patients, especially on those with concomitant chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), is substantial. Treatment intensification with oral corticosteroids is a common strategy for managing severe asthma exacerbations; however, prolonged exposure to systemic corticosteroids is associated with multisystem toxicity. This study aimed to quantify the association between oral corticosteroid use and annual asthma-related costs in patients with severe asthma with or without CRSwNP.

Background: The role of hyperuricemia on short-term clinical prognosis in outpatients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) has few investigations and inconclusive results. We evaluated the prognostic impact of serum uric acid (SUA) on short-term clinical outcome among ambulatory patients with chronic HFrEF enrolled in a nationwide cardiology registry, stratified by the presence of chronic renal dysfunction (CKD).
Methods: 2246 outpatients with LVEF ≤40 %, vital status at 1-year follow-up known, and with SUA and creatinine available were stratified accordingly to SUA tertiles (≤5.
