About this trial
The goal of this observational study is to determine the prevalence of remission among adults with mild-to-moderate asthma, as well as the factors associated with remission in Thailand.
The main question the study aims to answer is:
What is the prevalence of remission among adults with severe asthma in Thailand? Participants will complete a questionnaire on asthma symptoms and undergo pulmonary function testing and a blood test once.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
mild-to-moderate asthma

Cohort
Cross-sectional
Treatments tested in this trial
Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) and Asthma Control Test (ACT) questionnaires
Other interventionGINA and ACT are questionnaires used to assess the level of asthma control.
Spirometry
Other interventionSpirometry is a tool used to assess pulmonary function.
Fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) test
Other interventionFeNO is a tool used to assess eosinophilic airway inflammation and asthma remission.
Blood eosinophil count (BEC)
Other interventionBEC is a tool used to assess eosinophilic inflammation and asthma remission.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Prevalence rate of mild-to-moderate asthma remission
Prevalence rate of mild-to-moderate asthma remission (%)
Secondary outcomes
Asthma control in patients with mild-to-moderate asthma
Rate of patients with well-controlled asthma. Well-controlled asthma is defined as an Asthma Control Test (ACT) score of 20 or higher.
Airway obstruction in patients with mild-to-moderate asthma
Airway obstruction is assessed using FEV1/FVC ratio on spirometry.
Severity of aiway obstruction in patients with mild-to-moderate asthma
The severity of aiway obstruction is assessed using FEV1 % predicted on spirometry.
Eosinophil airway inflammation in patients with mild-to-moderate asthma
Eosinophil airway inflammation is assessed using blood eosinophil count (cells/µL).
