摘要
Longitudinal studies have reported that asthma in childhood has a good prognosis. However, most of these studies have not taken into account the severity of childhood symptoms.' The Melbourne Epidemiological Study of Childhood Asthma recruited children at age 7 years and followed them up through adolescence to adulthood.(2-5) This report describes outcome at age 42 years in relation to symptoms in childhood.
