TL;DR: A meta-analysis of GWAS studies for asthma from multiancestral cohorts identifies five new loci and finds that the asthma-associated loci are enriched near enhancer marks in immune cells, suggesting a major role of these loci in the regulation of immunologically related mechanisms.

TL;DR: ICS adherence varies in the time period leading up to and after an asthma exacerbation, and nonadherence likely contributes to a large number of these exacerbations.

TL;DR: Current predictive equations, which rely on self-identified race alone, may misestimate lung function among subjects who identify themselves as African American, and incorporating ancestry into normative equations may improve lung-function estimates and more accurately categorize disease severity.
