Asthma is a heterogeneous group of conditions that result in recurrent, reversible bronchial obstruction. Although the disease can start at any age, the first symptoms occur during childhood in most cases. Asthma has a strong genetic component, and genome-wide association studies have identified variations in several genes that slightly increase the ...

From an epidemiological point of view four issues are briefly emphasized here: the definition of asthma, time trends and regional differences, and risk factors for asthma. Furthermore, I will focus upon a few aspects regarding the relation between exercise and asthma.

There is an active inflammatory process in the airways of patients with asthma, even when the patients are asymptomatic. Some of the types of cells involved in this process possess the necessary biologic activities to produce many of the pathophysiologic features of asthma, but the underlying mechanisms have not yet been elucidated.
