UChicago study combines genetic data with computational models to pinpoint likely genetic variations which cause asthma onset ...

A new study combines genetic data and improved computational tools to look more closely at GWAS results for both adult-onset and childhood-onset asthma. The research identified many genetic variants ...

I’m a healthy 62-year-old and read that it is called “cough variant asthma.” I would like to know more about this but really can’t find anything about it, except that it will eventually ...

Treatment options for exercise-induced asthma involve: Cough-variant asthma is a form of asthma where a chronic cough (lasting more than eight weeks) is the only symptom. About 30% of people with ...

The most common causes of chronic cough include gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), asthma, and postnasal drip (also known as upper airway cough syndrome), said Sean Duffy, MD, an associate ...

Most human diseases—including asthma—are not caused by a single genetic variant, however. Instead, they are the result of complex interactions among multiple genes, environmental factors ...

Genome wide association studies (GWAS) have identified hundreds of genome regions containing thousands of genetic variants associated with asthma, but it's still not clear which variants have an ...

I’m a healthy 62-year-old and read that it is called “cough variant asthma.” I would like to know more about this but really can’t find anything about it, except that it will eventually ...

Researchers used UK Biobank data to identify 70 proteins with genetically predicted roles in asthma, offering insights into ...
