Background: Genetic factors play a role in asthma severity. However, low- and middle-income countries have minimal contribution to genomic asthma research. The current study investigates the influence of an important genetic asthma region (6p21) on severe asthma in a cohort of asthmatics in Pakistan.

Background: Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) recently recommends clinicians to reduce inhaled corticosteroid doses in patients with severe asthma who respond positively to monoclonal antibodies (MAbs).
Objective: As we operated this reduction even before the document, we analysed our cohort of subjects on treatment with a MAbs for at least 24 months.
Methods: Data stored in our electronic archive and at the 6-month follow-up (FU) were registered and patients' adherence to asthma therapy was derived by electronic pharmacy claim database.

Introduction: Physical inactivity due to shortness of breath is common among patients with uncontrolled asthma. We evaluated the body mass composition and exercise capacity of patients with poorly controlled asthma, despite maximal inhalation therapy.
Methods: We recruited 56 patients from the Asthma Clinic of the University Hospital of Liège between September 2020 and December 2023, and 14 healthy subjects.

China has implemented the "tiered medical services" policy since 2015, while there is a paucity of data evaluating the the current status of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) management under the system. Characteristics and treatments from 11,905 COPD patients in 88 hospitals across different tiers in China were included and analyzed. We assessed the statistical significance of differences by one way analysis of variance (ANOVA) for continuous variables and with the chi-squared test for categorical variables.
