Bronchiectasis Severity Index and FACED scores in patients with allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis complicating asthma: do they correlate with immunological severity or high-attenuation mucus?

Conclusion: We found no correlation between BSI and FACED with immunological parameters in ABPA. However, we found a significant correlation between BSI and FACED and a weak correlation between SGRQ and BHQ. ABPA likely requires a separate disease-severity scoring system.PMID:38520686 | DOI:10.1080/02770903.2024.2334901
