Cross-sectional study identifies VMR association with asthma exacerbations, suggesting a new risk factor for management.
This cross-sectional study is the first to identify a significant association between VMR and the risk of asthma exacerbations, suggesting that abnormal body composition may be an important factor influencing asthma attacks. As a convenient and modifiable body composition indicator, VMR holds potential clinical value in risk identification and non-pharmacological management of asthma populations.
