Abstract:
Asthma results from a complex interaction between genetics and environmental factors. Authors have demonstrated the role play by these, however a greatest number of family and asthmatic patients not identify the sources of pollution into their home. A sampling of 369 patients finds that males were predominant mainly affecting before five years of age. 67.2% have factors of risk in their microenvironment (RR = 4.06; OR = 11.38; RA = 53.21; P = .001). Tobacco predominant with 129 patients (RR = 3.12; OR = 3.76; RA = 37.08; P = 0.04). Carpets in 32.29% (RR = 2.81; OR = 4.52; RA = 31.44; P = .007). Animals 19.24% (RR = 1.64; OR = 1.90; RA = 11.27; P = .051). Patients with a great number of broncoespasm acute description have been hospitalized rely on factors risk in their home. Data demonstrate the necessity to design projects of education to limit the family injury.

Asthma: Pathogenesis and Management
Asthma is classified as allergic and non-allergic. Allergens such as dust mites, pollen, and pet dander trigger allergic asthma, while factors like cold air, intense emotions, or exercise can induce non-allergic asthma.

Asthma-II: Pathophysiology and Classification
Additionally, environmental and genetic factors play crucial roles in determining an individual's susceptibility to asthma and the severity of their condition.
