Popis: Asthma; Inflammation; Phenotype Asma; Inflamación; Fenotipos Asma; Inflamació; Fenotips Introduction The MEGA (MEchanism underlying the Genesis and evolution of Asthma) project is a multicenter cohort study carried out in eight Spanish hospitals, gathering clinical, physiological, and molecular data from patients with asthma and multimorbidities in order to gain insight into the different physiopathological mechanisms involved in this disorder. Material and Methods We report the baseline clinical and physiological characteristics and biomarker measures of adult participants in the project with the aim of better understanding the natural history and underlying mechanisms of asthma as well as the associated multimorbidities across different levels of severity. We carried out a detailed clinical examination, pulmonary function testing, measurement of fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO), blood counts, induced sputum, skin prick tests, chest computed tomography scan, asthma questionnaires, and multimorbidity assessment in 512 asthmatic patients. Results When compared to patients with milder disease, severe asthmatic patients showed greater presence of symptoms, more exacerbations, lower asthma control, increased airflow obstruction, and higher frequency of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, severe rhinitis, anxiety and depression, gastroesophageal reflux, and bronchiectasis. Conclusion The MEGA project succeeded in recruiting a high number of asthma patients, especially those with severe disease, who showed lower control and higher frequency of multimorbidities. This study was supported by Sanofi [02/055], Fondo de Investigación Sanitaria–FIS [PI15/00803], [PI15/01900], the Merck Health Foundation, CIBER de Enfermedades Respiratorias (CIBERES), a Carlos III Institute of Health initiative, and FEDER funds. The authors recognize Oliver Shaw, English editor of IIS-FJD, for his revision and editing of the manuscript, and Ignacio Mahillo-Fernández for statistical revision.
