背景：传统地中海饮食据称对多种慢性疾病具有抗氧化和免疫调节特性。最近，典型的地中海食物与改善儿童哮喘和鼻炎症状有关。然而，坚持地中海饮食对成人哮喘结局的影响尚不清楚。我们旨在调查坚持地中海饮食与哮喘控制之间的关联。方法：对 174 名哮喘患者进行横断面研究，平均 (SD) 年龄为 40 (15) 岁。如果患者的 FEV1 >= 预测呼出一氧化氮 (NO) 的 80%，则患者被定义为受控，与非受控相反
Background: The traditional Mediterranean diet is claimed to possess antioxidant and immune-regulatory properties in several chronic diseases. Typical Mediterranean foods have recently been associated with improvement of symptoms of asthma and rhinitis in children. However the effect of adherence to Mediterranean diet on adult asthma outcomes is unknown. We aimed to investigate the association between adherence to Mediterranean diet and asthma control.Methods: Cross sectional study of 174 asthmatics, mean (SD) age of 40 (15) years. The patients were defined as controlled, in contrast to noncontrolled, if they showed FEV1 >= 80% of predicted, exhaled nitric oxide (NO)
