    Abstract Low-resource settings have a disproportionately higher burden of asthma due to factors that include environmental triggers, access to healthcare, availability of medications, and uncoordinated health systems. The application of guideline-based management can vary, which further impacts the treatment delivered. This chapter aims to outline the global landscape of asthma management, including cultural and social factors, with suggestions for interventions.

    Abstract Asthma is a chronic respiratory disease with widespread prevalence that affects children, adolescents, and adults. Asthma morbidity and mortality can be exacerbated in the setting of housing insecurity. In this Grand Rounds Review article, we present a case and discuss the implications that housing insecurity has on asthma outcomes in the United States. We then highlight ways in which providers can advocate for patients with asthma and housing insecurity.

    Abstract Background/purpose: Olfactory dysfunction (OD) has been recognized as an early biomarker for neurodegenerative diseases. Identifying behaviors that increase the risk of OD is crucial for early recognition of neurogenerative diseases. Alcohol consumption can potentially impact olfaction through its neurotoxic effects. This study aims to examine the relationship between alcohol consumption and OD, using data from the National Social Life, Health, and Aging Project (NSHAP).
    Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on data for 2757 adults from Round 1 of NSHAP. OD was defined as correctly identifying 0-3 odors in the 5-item Sniffin' Sticks test while normal olfactory function was defined as correctly identifying 4-5 odors. Multivariable logistic regression was utilized to examine the association between alcohol consumption and OD, controlling for age, race, and comorbidities. Analyses were weighted to account for the sampling design.
    Results: OD was present in 23.1 % of adults. The average age among those with OD was 71.2 ± 7.8 years, compared to 66.9 ± 7.2 years in those with normal olfaction. In terms of alcohol consumption, 31.1 % of adults with OD were light-to-moderate drinkers and 7.7 % were heavy drinkers, compared to 35.6 % light-to-moderate and 7.7 % heavy drinkers in the normal olfaction group. After adjusting for age, gender, race, and education, neither light-to-moderate drinking (aOR: 0.99; 95 % CI: 0.76-1.29) nor heavy drinking (aOR: 1.24; 95 % CI: 0.83-1.85) were significantly associated with OD.
    Conclusion: Alcohol consumption was not associated with OD after controlling for covariates. While this study provides insight into the relationship between alcohol consumption and OD, further research is needed due to conflicting results in previous studies.

    Abstract The prevalence of obesity and asthma are both increasing at alarming rates. The link between obesity and asthma suggests that obesity contributes to both risk of new onset asthma and increased asthma severity. The emerging evidence demonstrating the role of obesity and other lifestyle factors, such as diet and physical activity, on asthma outcomes warrants lifestyle interventions that can address these components of asthma care. This review examines the current literature on the pathophysiology of obesity's role in asthma, as well as the role of diet and physical activity in weight loss and in asthma outcomes. We discuss recent studies that employ lifestyle interventions to target improved asthma outcomes. Finally, we discuss the future direction of research in this area.

    Abstract Purpose of review: Our day-to-day life is saturated with health data that was previously out of reach. Over the last decade, new devices and fitness technology companies are attempting to tap into this data, uncovering a treasure trove of useful information that, when applied correctly, has the potential to revolutionize the way we approach healthcare and chronic conditions like asthma, especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
    Recent findings: By harnessing exciting developments in personalization, digitization, wellness, and patient engagement, care providers can improve health outcomes for our patients in a way we have never been able to do in the past. While new technologies to capture individual health metrics are everywhere, how can we use this information to make a real difference in our patients' lives? Navigating the complicated landscape of personal wearable devices, asthma inhaler sensors, and exercise apps can be daunting to even the most tech savvy physician. This manuscript will give you the tools necessary to make lasting changes in your patients' lives by exposing them to a world of usable, affordable, and relatable health technology that resonates with their personal fitness and wellness goals. These tools will be even more important post-COVID-19, as the landscape of clinical outpatient care changes from mainly in-person visits to a greater reliance on telemedicine and remote monitoring.

    Abstract Background: Food insecurity has been associated with poorer asthma control in children, but research lacks in adults.
    Objective: To assess the frequency of food insecurity and its association with asthma control in adults during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic.
    Methods: An online cross-sectional survey study was conducted in US adults with asthma. Survey questions included how worried or concerned participants were about food security since the pandemic. Asthma control was assessed using the Asthma Control Test, with uncontrolled asthma defined as Asthma Control Test score less than or equal to 19. Self-report of food insecurity since the pandemic was assessed. Food insecurity variables were dichotomized into high insecurity (≥3) or low insecurity (<3). Descriptive statistics and bivariate analyses were performed.
    Results: Of the total participants (N = 866), 82.79% were female; mean age of participants was 44 ± 15.05 years, their mean Asthma Control Test score was 19.25 ± 4.54, and 18.48% had high food insecurity. Participants with high food insecurity were more likely to have uncontrolled asthma (74.38%) compared with those with lower food insecurity (34.99%; P < .01). The relationship between asthma control and food insecurity remained significant after adjusting for age, education, sex, race, anxiety, and living stability concerns due to the pandemic.
    Conclusions: Food insecurity exists in adults with asthma and is associated with uncontrolled asthma. Providers should consider screening their patients for food insecurity when treating individuals with uncontrolled asthma.
