Description
Reshed Abohalaka and co-authors published this asthma study in 2024 from western Sweden. Asthma is often seen as a child's disease, yet many cases start in adult life. The team looked back across the life span, sorting new cases by age, sex, and whether allergies rode along. Their aim was a full map of when asthma begins.
A large share of cases did begin in adults. Past age thirty-five, new adult cases passed new child cases, with middle-aged women at the front. Allergic asthma ruled the young but thinned with age. Non-allergic asthma grew more common as people aged, and ruled among the old. The authors say clinics and studies must split asthma by start age and allergy state, since the mix shifts across a life.
