Children with asthma account for a large share of pediatric pulmonology patients1 In this review, we highlight pediatric asthma studies published in 2024. After reviewing the collected articles for their potential clinical impact, the authors organized the final selections into thematic groups for reader orientation: Diagnosis and Monitoring, Treatment and Management, Environmental and Social Factors, Genetics and Biomarkers, and Innovative Programs and Health Policy. Given the extensive number of studies published on pediatric asthma and limitations of space, we acknowledge that not every study can be included in this review. We hope this review will spark discussions on current clinical practices, as well as inspire future research in pediatric asthma.
