Recent studies have repeatedly shown weak correlations among lung function parameters, atopy, exhaled nitric oxide level (Feno), and airway inflammatory markers, suggesting that they are non-overlapping characteristics of asthma in adults. A study was undertaken to determine, using factor analysis, whether the above features represent separate dimensions of childhood asthma.
