Airway inflammation phenotype prediction in asthma patients using lung sound analysis with fractional exhaled nitric oxide

Background: We previously reported the results of lung sound analysis in patients with bronchial asthma and demonstrated that the exhalation-to-inhalation sound pressure ratio in the low frequency range between 100 and 200 Hz (E/I LF) was correlated with the presence of airway inflammation and airwa...
