Disparate diagnostic accuracy of lung function tests as predictors of poor asthma control in children.

CONCLUSION: Tests of large airway and peripheral zone lung function performed disparately as predictors of poor control in a sample of children enriched in severe asthma. Further studies in a larger sample with more diverse phenotypic features are necessary to validate this preliminary conclusion. PMID: 30663912 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
