摘要

Objective: We hypothesized that children with obesity-related asthma would have worse self-reported asthma control, report an increased number of asthma symptoms and have lower FEV1/FVC associated with worse clinical asthma outcomes compared to children with asthma only. Methods: Cross sectional analyses examined two hundred and eighteen (obesity-related asthma = 109, asthma only = 109) children, ages 7-15 that were recruited from clinics and hospitals within the Bronx, NY. Pulmonary function was assessed by forced expiratory volume in the first second (percent predicted FEV1) and the ratio of FEV1 to the forced vital capacity of the lungs (FEV1/FVC). Structural equation modeling examined if pulmonary function was associated with asthma control and clinical outcomes between groups. Results: Lower percent predicted FEV1 was associated with increased hospitalizations (p = 0.03) and oral steroid bursts in the past 12 months (p = 0.03) in the obesity-related asthma group but not in the asthma only group. FEV1/FVC was also associated with increased hospitalizations (p = 0.02) and oral steroid bursts (p = 0.008) in the obesity-related asthma group but not the asthma only group. Lower FEV1/FVC was associated with the number of asthma symptoms endorsed in the asthma only group but not in the obesity-related asthma group. Percent predicted FEV1 and FEV1/FVC was not associated with asthma control in either group. Conclusions: Pulmonary function was associated with oral steroid bursts and hospitalizations but not self-reported asthma control, suggesting the importance of incorporating measures of pulmonary function into the treatment of pediatric obesity-related asthma.
