Abstract

The article discusses research on a comparison on the effectiveness between the University of Cincinnati's Asthma Predictive Index (ucAPI) and persistent wheezing on predicting asthma at seven years of age, in which topics explored include challenges to predicting asthma at an early age and whether ucAPI can be applied to children without a family history of atopy.
