Tag : BLOOD EOSINOPHILS

In the NOVELTY study, higher baseline blood eosinophils (EOS) significantly predicted increased exacerbation risks in asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Conversely, FeNO showed highly heterogeneous associations, paradoxically linking to a lower overall risk in COPD but increased odds of oral corticosteroid-treated exacerbations in asthma and asthma + COPD.
