Deskripsi
Asthma is a heterogeneous, complex syndrome that arises in individuals with various genetic and exposure variations. Here, the authors show that disease comorbidity patterns can serve as a surrogate for these variations, and identify asthma endotypes distinguished by comorbidity patterns, asthma risk loci, gene expression, and health-related phenotypes.
