CONCLUSION
In conclusion, constipated people had a 1.91-fold greater risk for
asthma compared with those without constipation. Individuals with
constipation should be alert to the elevated risk of developing asthma.
Moreover, physicians should define the intestinal condition, including
the gut microbiome, in patients with asthma. The precise
pathophysiological association between constipation and asthma still
needs further research.
