Key Words Asthma phenotypes; Asthma heterogenity; Endotypes; Asthma subtypes; Asthma syndrome
Core Tip Although asthma diagnosis is based mainly on clinical basis using history taking and physical exami-nation, treatment options are not tailored according to the clinical phenotype. We still do not have a way to work up a given patient with asthma and to easily delineate the specific pathobiology that leads to her or his airway dysfunction. We can recognize the clinical syndromes, but we cannot spell out the steps that lead from genetic or biochemical defects to disease presentation. Thus we are left with a paradox in the study of asthma; we have effective treatments that are not biologically informative, and we have informative treatments that are less effective.
