Summary
Investigating the presence and type of airway inflammation in patients with severe asthma suggests that inflammation remains in severe symptomatic asthmatics despite treatment with high dose glucocorticoids, which may be due to the severity of disease, glucOCorticoid treatment, or other as yet undefined factors.
