Researchers have identified a genetic biomarker of asthma that can be tested for using a simple nasal brush and basic follow-up data analysis. This inexpensive diagnostic test can accurately identify ...
A new paper describes a test that can differentiate between different types of asthma via a nasal swab. Researchers hope the test can eventually be used to help match patients with better treatments.
A lung function test used to help diagnose asthma works better in the morning, becoming less reliable throughout the day, Cambridge researchers have found. Using real world data from 1,600 patients, ...
Parents will be able to get a better measure of a child’s risk for developing asthma as early as age 2 thanks to a more sensitive test developed at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center, a new ...
Asthma comes in different subtypes, but diagnosing those subtypes — also known as endotypes — has historically been difficult. Newly published research in JAMA presents an alternative: a nasal swab ...

Diagnosing mild-to-moderate asthma can be difficult to diagnose, especially when scientists need to rule out other respiratory disorders that have similar symptoms. From Mount Sinai, scientists ...
