Previous longitudinal studies on self-reported exercise-induced airway symptoms among adolescents have primarily studied single symptoms, focusing on dyspnoea or wheeze, often as a way to investigate the prevalence of asthma [2, 3]. To the best of our knowledge, there are, as yet, no population-based studies investigating the difference between adolescents with and without current asthma regarding the development of different specific exercise-induced airway symptoms. Therefore, we studied the natural course of self-reported exercise-induced dyspnoea, throat tightness, wheeze, chest tightness, cough, stridor and hoarseness over a 5-year period among adolescents with and without current asthma.In a general population, the prevalence of exercise-induced cough, dyspnoea, throat and chest tightness, wheeze, and stridor increases from adolescence to young adulthood among individuals without asthma in contrast to individuals with asthma https://bit.ly/3hR57OX ER -
