[29] Furthermore, asthma prevalence varies among the provinces of Canada; the highest prevalence is Ontario at 12.1%, and the lowest is Nunavut at 3.8%. [29]
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.

There is a strong association of C. pneumoniae with long-standing asthma among the non-atopic asthma in comparison to atopic asthma. [2] In fact, the severity of asthma can be determined by the elevated titres to C. pneumoniae, but not to other potential pathogens such as Mycoplasma pneumoniae, adenovirus, influenza A and B or parainfluenza ...
Thunderstorm asthma (also referred to in the media as thunder fever or a pollen bomb [1]) is the triggering of an asthma attack by environmental conditions directly caused by a local thunderstorm.
