The Practical Role of FEF < sub > 25-75 < /sub > in Young Patients with Allergic Rhinitis

In conclusion, the present study showed that FEF25-75 was associated with low FEV1 and FEV1/FVC and BHR in AR patients. Therefore, spirometry should be considered in the long-term workup of patients with allergic rhinitis as impaired FEF25-75 might suggest an initial progression toward asthma.PMID:37309103 | DOI:10.1177/19458924231182272
