Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of the study is to assess the peripheral endothelial function in adult asthmatic patients and the relationship between the peripheral endothelial function and the pulmonary function.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The primary criteria is the peripheral endothelial function that will be assessed by the measure of flow-mediated dilation (reactive hyperemia-peripheral artery tone index). The pulmonary function will be assessed by the measures of the FEV1, the forced vital capacity (FVC) and the expiratory flow between 25% and 75% (FEF25-75%). The relationship between these parameters of the pulmonary function and the peripheral endothelial function will be analyzed. In addition, a relationship between peripheral endothelial function and the level of asthma control (Asthma Control Test (ACT)), the cardiovascular risk factors (SCORE INdex) and the treatment for asthma (controllers) will be also assessed.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* All patients must have a clear-cut history of asthma at the time of enrolment into the trial (eventually confirmed in the past and documented by an increased hyperresponsiveness to methacholine; or a bronchodilator reversibility to a beta-2-adrenergic drug).

Exclusion Criteria

* Patients with unstable asthma
* Patients with a significant acute disease other than asthma. A significant disease is defined as a disease which, in the opinion of the investigator, may influence the results of the trial.
* Pregnant or nursing women.
