Fixed airflow obstruction due to asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: 5-year follow-up

TL;DR: In both patients with asthma and those with COPD, fixed airflow obstruction is associated with increased lung function decline and frequency of exacerbations and the decline in lung function entails the specific pathological and clinical features of the underlying diseases.

TL;DR: The Inhaled Steroid Treatment as Regular Therapy in Early Asthma (START) study as mentioned in this paper enrolled 7241 patients aged 5 to 66 years with mild persistent asthma to assess early intervention with the inhaled corticosteroid budesonide on long-term asthma control.
