Description

Mario Barreto and co-authors used a within-breath lung test for sport asthma in kids in two thousand twenty-three. Some kids wheeze in sport for mixed causes. Plain lung tests can miss the true cause. The new test reads airway tightness as kids breathe at rest. Inhale and exhale are scored apart. Sixty-eight kids with sport symptoms ran treadmill tests.

Plain lung scores were tracked right after exercise. The new test ran at set times as well. A puffer drug test closed each visit. Known and suspect asthma cases were compared. Within-breath gaps flagged the real narrowing. The test is easy for kids to do. Clinics gain proof, not just symptoms.
