Asthma prescribing according to Arg16Gly beta-2 genotype: a randomised trial in adolescents

The A allele of rs1042713 (Arg16 amino acid) in the β2-adrenoreceptor is associated with poor response to long-acting β2-agonist (LABA) in young people with asthma. Our aim was to assess whether the prescribing of second-line controller with LABA or a leukotriene receptor antagonist according to Arg...

Description
Summary:The A allele of rs1042713 (Arg16 amino acid) in the β2-adrenoreceptor is associated with poor response to long-acting β2-agonist (LABA) in young people with asthma. Our aim was to assess whether the prescribing of second-line controller with LABA or a leukotriene receptor antagonist according to Arg16Gly genotype would result in improvements in Pediatric Asthma-Related Quality of Life Questionnaire (PAQLQ).
