It is responsible for over 1000 deaths a day, of which the majority are preventable (Levy, 2015).\n\nAsthma is a common heterogeneous disease characterized by chronic airway inflammation. It is defined by the history of variable respiratory symptoms, such as shortness of breath, chest tightness, wheezes, and cough, together with variable expiratory airflow limitation. Airflow limitation may later become persistent (GINA, 2023).\n\nThe diagnosis of asthma is based on the history of these characteristic symptoms and evidence of variable expiratory airflow limitation from bronchodilator reversibility testing or other tests (GINA, 2023).'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '50 Years', 'minimumAge': '15 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'The study was case control had included 97 asthma patients and 97 healthy controls.
