Rhinitis associated with asthma is distinct from rhinitis alone: The ARIA-MeDAL...
Bousquet, J.; Melén, E.; Haahtela, T.; Koppelman, G. H.; Togias, A.; Valenta, R.; Akdis, C. A.; Czarlewski, W.; Rothenberg, M.; Valiulis, A.Asthma, rhinitis, and atopic dermatitis (AD) are interrelated clinical phenotypes that partly overlap in the human interactome. The concept of "one-airway-one-disease," coined over 20 years ago, is a simplistic approach of the links between upper- and lower-airway allergic diseases. With new data, it is time to reassess the concept. This article reviews (i) the clinical observations that led to Allergic Rhiniti...
Identification by cluster analysis of patients with asthma and nasal symptoms u...
Bousquet, J.; Sousa-Pinto, B.; Anto, J. M.; Amaral, R.; Brussino, L.; Canonica, G. W.; Cruz, A. A.; Gemicioglu, B.; Haahtela, T.; Kupczyk, M.Background: The self-reporting of asthma frequently leads to patient misidentification in epidemiological studies. Strategies combining the triangulation of data sources may help to improve the identification of people with asthma. We aimed to combine information from the self-reporting of asthma, medication use and symptoms to identify asthma patterns in the users of an mHealth app. Methods: We studied MASK-ai...

Treatment of allergic rhinitis during and outside the pollen season using mobil...
Bédard, A.; Basagaña, X.; Anto, J. M.; Garcia-Aymerich, J.; Devillier, P.; Arnavielhe, S.; Bedbrook, A.; Onorato, G. L.; Czarlewski, W.; Murray, R.Background: The analysis of mobile health (mHealth) data has generated innovative insights into improving allergic rhinitis control, but additive information is needed. A cross-sectional real-world observational study was undertaken in 17 European countries during and outside the estimated pollen season. The aim was to collect novel information including the phenotypic characteristics of the users. Methods: The...
Identification of asthma phenotypes in the US general population: A latent clas...
Amaral, Rita; Pereira, Ana M; Jacinto, Tiago; Malinovsch, A; Janson, C; Alving, K; Fonseca, J. A.Combining clinical and physiological data from adults with asthma by means of unsupervised classification methods could provide a better taxonomy among the general asthma population. Therefore, we aimed to identify distinct phenotypes using latent class analysis (LCA), in adults with current asthma from the general population.
Associação entre o número de sensibilizações a aeroalergénios e parâmetros de f...
Gonçalves, I.; Pereira, A. M.; Jacinto, Tiago; Amaral, Rita; Fonseca, J. A.; Amaral, RitaO número de sensibilizações a aeroalergénios é importante na classificação fenotípica de indivíduos com patologia das vias aéreas, estando um maior número associado a maior gravidade da patologia (Amaral R et al, Allergy 2019). No entanto, a sua associação com a função respiratória não está ainda estudada.

Automatic quality assessment of smart device microphone spirometry
Pinho, B.; Almeida, R.; Jácome, C.; Teixeira, J. P.; Amaral, Rita; Lopes, F.; Jacinto, Tiago; Guedes, R.; Pereira, M.; Gonçalves, I.; Fonseca, J. A.Lung function tests are critical for diagnosis and monitoring of asthma and other respiratory diseases. Monitoring of lung function, in the absence of a healthcare professional, is very challenging but may be obtained through Smart Devices if automated quality assessment systems guarantee the proper technique during the forced expiratory manoeuvre. This paper describes the evaluation of one such system that use...
Assessment of asthma control using CARAT in patients with and without allergic ...
Domingues, M.; Amaral, R.; Fonseca, J. A.; Azevedo, P.; Correia de Sousa, JaimeBackground: Asthma and Allergic Rhinitis (AR) are two chronic inflammatory diseases that are often concomitant. The Control of Allergic Rhinitis and Asthma Test (CARAT) was developed to evaluate the control of these diseases from the patients' perspective. Its performance in asthma patients without AR has not been previously studied. Aim: To test the hypothesis that CARAT can be used to assess asthma control in...

Teixeira, A.; Rocha, N.; Dias, M. S.; Braga, D.; Queirós, A.; Pacheco, O.; Fonseca, J. A.; Pinto, J. S.; Gamboa, H.; Corte-Real, L.; Fonseca, J.Living Usability Lab for Next Generation Networks (www.livinglab.pt) is a Portuguese industry-academia collaborative R&D project, active in the field of live usability testing, focusing on the development of technologies and services to support healthy, productive and active citizens. The project adopts the principles of universal design and natural user interfaces (speech, gesture) making use of the benefits o...
