Evaluation of airflow limitation using spirometry is important for determining the disease severity and therapeutic effect in asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Patients with asthma-COPD overlap (ACO) and late-onset asthma are susceptible to rapid deterioration of forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1), and have a very poor prognosis with respect to lung function decline, hospital admissions, and survival. 1 The distribution of airway stenosis and the physiological mechanism of airflow limitation may differ between patients with asthma and COPD. However, spirometry may not always distinguish the pathological and physiological mechanisms of airflow limitation in each disease. 2 Further, in advanced stages of COPD and ACO, spirometry, which requires forced expiration, places a burden on the patient. The forced oscillation technique (FOT) is a method for noninvasively measuring respiratory system resistance (Rrs) and reactance (Xrs) during tidal breathing. It provides information that cannot be obtained using spirometry. 3 Studies have also indicated the usefulness of the FOT for managing patients with obstructive lung diseases, including asthma, COPD, and ACO. We recently reported that the FOT may be useful for identifying ACO. 4 However, only a few studies have focused on the differences in the relationship between annual changes in FOT parameters and spirometry among patients with asthma, 5 COPD, 6 and ACO. Herein, we aimed to investigate the relationship between the annual changes in FOT parameters and those in FEV1 in patients with asthma, COPD, and ACO. This retrospective, observational study recruited adult patients with asthma or COPD from a previously published study. 7 The relevant ethics committee approved the study protocol (SGH 15-01-55). The patients with asthma and COPD fulfilled the definition of the Global Initiative for Asthma 8 and the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease guidelines, 9 respectively. ACO was diagnosed using our previously reported criteria at recruitment. 4 All patients underwent the FOT and spirometry on the same day, at least four times over 3 years (ie, at least one time per year) before recruitment. The details are provided in the Supplementary Methods.This study included 75 adult patients with ACO (n ¼ 29), asthma (n ¼ 23), and COPD (n ¼ 23)(Supplementary Fig. 1). At recruitment, patients with COPD had lower FEV1 and Xrs at 5 Hz (X5) and higher resonant frequency (Fres) and low-frequency reactance area (ALX) than did patients with asthma and ACO (Supplementary Table 1). The annual changes in FEV1 and FOT are shown in Supplementary
