Participant Flow

The NHLBI Childhood Asthma Management Program (CAMP) and CAMP Continuation Studies afforded a unique opportunity to investigate four newly described, distinct patterns of airway obstruction associated with childhood asthma, including two that have been associated with significant and potentially irreversible loss in pulmonary function.

Analysis of serial pulmonary function measures in participants in CAMP and CAMPCS over time showed 4 patterns of airway obstruction developing during childhood and adolescence based on measurements of pre-bronchodilator FEV1/FVC at the time of enrollment in CAMP and again at the end of the observational phase.

Participant milestones

Participant milestones
Measure
Persistent Obstruction
This group represents those that have persistent obstruction from baseline at entry into the NHLBI CAMP study until end of the CAMP Continuation study, 9 years later.
Late Obstruction in Pulmonary Physiology
This group represents those that had normal pulmonary function from baseline at entry into the NHLBI CAMP study and then has evidence of obstruction, as defined by FEV1/FVC criteria, at end of the CAMP Continuation study, 9 years later.
Late Normal in Pulmonary Physiology
This group represents those that has evidence of obstruction, as defined by FEV1/FVC criteria, from baseline at entry into the NHLBI CAMP study and then has normal pulmonary function at end of the CAMP.
Persistent Normal in Pulmonary Physiology
This groups has normal pulmonary function at the time of entry into the CAMP study and normal pulmonary function 9 years later.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Measured at Year 2

Population: There were 43 participants with Chest CT data; 1 was excluded from the analysis due to incidental finding of an anatomical congenital anomaly.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Measured at Year 2

Population: 54 participants had induced sputum data but 1 was excluded due to congenital anatomical anomaly (bronchial atresia).

MMP9/TIMP 1 molar ratio MMP9 is matrix metalloproteinse 9 and is a protease enzyme that is responsible for tissue degradation of extracellular matrix and could be a factor in airway remodeling. TIMP 1 is an abbreviation for tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 and is an inhibitor of MMP9 and would serve to balance the activity protease activity of MMP9 and this it is an anti-protease. Therefore the ratio of MMP9 and TIMP1 is used to assess the relative balance of protease and antiprotease activity.
