Identification of treatable traits in a severe asthma registry: prevalence and exacerbation predictors

Conclusion: Treatable traits can be assessed using severe asthma registry data. In severe asthma, patients express more treatable traits than non-severe asthma. Traits may be associated with future asthma exacerbation risk demonstrating clinical utility of assessing treatable traits.
