- W2782190813 abstract "BackgroundAirway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) is a key feature of asthma and can be detected using various bronchoprovocation tests. In pediatric populations, the percentage of a positive methacholine challenge test (MCCTs) in children with asthma varies among studies, and some have reported seasonal variability. However, these studies have mostly been conducted in temperate regions.This study evaluated the prevalence of AHR to methacholine and its seasonal variation in asthmatic children in Taiwan, a subtropical country.MethodsA total of 276 children with asthma and their MCCT results were retrospectively reviewed. All were diagnosed with asthma and received asthma controllers regularly. They were assigned to four season groups depending in which season MCCTs were administered, with seasons categorized by the Central Weather Bureau of Taiwan. Subgroup analyses, including for sex, age, and atopy level, were compared for seasonal difference.ResultsThe prevalence of methacholine hyperresponsiveness was 70.7% (n = 195), and the children who were younger and had higher total serum IgE were more sensitive to methacholine (p = 0.019 and p < 0.005, respectively). No significant difference in AHR prevalence among seasons was observed (p = 0.480). The percentage of borderline, mild, and moderate severity of MCCT results was almost equally distributed among the seasons. In subgroup analysis, the children with a higher IgE level (≥75th percentile of all data) had a higher proportion of positive MCCTs in summer (88.6%, p = 0.016).ConclusionIn total, 70% of the children with asthma in Taiwan had AHR to methacholine, which varied among seasons. Children with a higher total serum IgE level may be more seasonally dependent, particularly in summer.
