DOI: 10.1016/j.rmed.2018.06.025
Abstract: BACKGROUND Eosinophilic asthma is characterized by persistently elevated blood eosinophils, adult-onset asthma and corticosteroid resistance. For stratified medicine purposes one single measurement of blood eosinophils or exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) is commonly used. The aim… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.rmed.2018.07.011
Abstract: BACKGROUND Low-grade systemic inflammation, mainly assessed by C-reactive protein (CRP), has been associated with impaired lung function. Few studies have studied if CRP, blood eosinophils, and blood neutrophils offer additive information in relation to lung… read more here.

Blood eosinophils, fractional exhaled nitric oxide and the risk of asthma attacks in randomised controlled trials: protocol for a systemic review and control arm patient-level meta-analysis for clinical prediction modelling
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "BMJ Open"
DOI: 10.1136/bmjopen-2021-058215
Abstract: Introduction The reduction of the risk of asthma attacks is a major goal of guidelines. The fact that type-2 inflammatory biomarkers identify a higher risk, anti-inflammatory responsive phenotype is potentially relevant to this goal. We… read more here.
