Abstract

Background: The relationship between obesity and asthma severity in children is inconsistent across studies. Objectives: To estimate the association between obesity and poor asthma control/ risk of exacerbations in asthmatic children and adolescents, and to assess whether these associations are different by gender. Methods: A meta-analysis was performed on unpublished data from three North-European pediatric asthma cohorts (BREATHE, PACMAN and PAGES) and 11 previously published studies. Body mass index (BMI) was classified as obesity (BMI≥95th percentile) and non-obesity
