Abstract
Asthma is a heterogeneous chronic airway disease with several distinct phenotypes characterized by different immune pathological pathways, clinical features, disease severity, physiology, and response to treatment. Approximately 50% of patients with stable chronic asthma have the eosinophilic phenotype, whereas the remainder have the non-eosinophilic asthma. Eosinophilic asthma is the most common phenotype in children with acute severe asthma, but neutrophilic asthma is the most common in adult patients presenting with acute severe asthma.
