Trial summary

Asthma is the most common chronic disease in children, however, underdiagnosis of childhood asthma is an important issue in asthma management. The lack of reliable and objective diagnostic indicators requires the development of rapid and accurate strategies for the early diagnosis of childhood asthma. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: LncRNA and Predictive Model to Improve the Early Diagnosis of Childhood Asthma

Asthma is the most common chronic disease in children, however, underdiagnosis of childhood asthma is an important issue in asthma management. The lack of reliable and objective diagnostic indicators requires the development of rapid and accurate strategies for the early diagnosis of childhood asthma. Recent studies have found a correlation between long-chain non-coding RNA (lncRNA) expression and childhood asthma, suggesting that lncRNA may be a potential biomarker for asthma diagnosis.

Read the detailed description

The investigators envision exploring the early diagnosis of asthma by combining lncRNA with electronic medical records. In this project, the investigators will combine high-throughput sequencing, asthma case database, electronic medical record and informatics to investigate the feasibility of combining lncRNA with electronic medical record for asthma diagnostic model. The expected results will establish the foundation for the diagnosis and treatment of childhood asthma and open up new ideas.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. rate of early diagnosis of childhood asthma

    a diagnosis of transient wheeze or asthma was made by a pediatric pulmonologist. This classification was based on symptoms, use of asthma medication, and lung function features.

    Measured: 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Childhood Asthma, run by Children's Hospital of Fudan University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Dec 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

rate of early diagnosis of childhood asthma (time frame: 24 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Dec 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
