A study by 49 academics argued that the dissonance between the 2021 guidelines and the previous guideline was the result of deviating from usual scientific standards of the NICE process. [45] NICE responded that they did follow the standard GRADE approach , and evidence from unblinded trials with subjective outcomes was appropriately downgraded.
The fraction of exhaled NO (FE NO) is a promising biomarker for the diagnosis, follow-up and as a guide to therapy in adults and children with asthma. The breath test has recently become available in many well-equipped hospitals in developed countries, although its exact role remains unclear.
Various asthma guidelines, such as the Global Initiative for Asthma Guidelines [GINA], the British Guidelines on the management of Asthma, The Canadian Pediatric Asthma Consensus Guidelines, and United States Guidelines for Diagnosis and Treatment of Asthma each recommend metered dose inhalers in place of nebulizer-delivered therapies.

GINA conducts continuous review of scientific publications on asthma and is a leader in disseminating information about the care of patients with asthma. [2] GINA publishes resources such as evidence-based guidelines for asthma management, and runs special events such as World Asthma Day. GINA's guidelines, revised each year, are used by ...
The prevalence of asthma increased 75% from 1980 to 1994. Asthma prevalence is 39% higher in African Americans than in Europeans. [135] 5.7 million (about 9.4%). In six- and seven-year-olds asthma increased from 18.4% to 20.9% over five years, during the same time the rate decreased from 31% to 24.7% in 13- to 14-year-olds. Atopic eczema
Estimates of between 0.5 and 3.5% have been made for ABPA burden in asthma, [32] [33] and 1–17.7% in CF. [32] [34] Five national cohorts, detecting ABPA prevalence in asthma (based on GINA estimates), [35] were used in a recent meta-analysis to produce an estimate of the global burden of ABPA complicating asthma. From 193 million people with ...
Asthma phenotyping and endotyping has emerged as a novel approach to asthma classification inspired by precision medicine which separates the clinical presentations of asthma, or asthma phenotypes, from their underlying causes, or asthma endotypes. The best-supported endotypic distinction is the type 2-high/type 2-low distinction.
