Urinary eosinophil‐derived neurotoxin is associated with reduced lung function in pediatric asthma
Introduction Eosinophil‐derived neurotoxin (EDN) is a biomarker for eosinophilic activation. Urinary (u) EDN may allow non‐invasive monitoring of asthma, but clinical recommendations are lacking. We assessed the potential of uEDN as a marker of disease activity in pediatric asthma. Methods We assess...

Zusammenfassung: | Introduction
Eosinophil‐derived neurotoxin (EDN) is a biomarker for eosinophilic activation. Urinary (u) EDN may allow non‐invasive monitoring of asthma, but clinical recommendations are lacking. We assessed the potential of uEDN as a marker of disease activity in pediatric asthma.
Methods
We assessed urine samples of 371 children from the German ALLIANCE study cohort, from which we had: 169 preschool wheezers ( |
