Summary

This study looks at whether tongue images and pulse wave data can help doctors better understand and monitor asthma in children aged 5 to 18. Researchers will collect these non-invasive measurements during routine clinic visits and compare them with standard lung function tests. The goal is to see if traditional diagnostic features can support more personalized asthma management.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a simple, non-invasive way to monitor asthma in children using tongue and pulse analysis.
What could go wrong
This is an early observational study, not a treatment trial. The findings may not translate into practical clinical tools or benefit patients directly.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

The study population consists of children aged 5 to 18 years with a confirmed diagnosis of asthma who are undergoing routine outpatient follow-up at Shanghai Children's Medical Center. Participants are enrolled prospectively and receive standard clinical care without any study-assigned intervention. Tongue image and pulse wave data are collected non-invasively during visits when pulmonary function testing is performed as part of routine clinical practice. Multimodal tongue-pulse features are analyzed in relation to asthma clinical stage, pulmonary function, airway inflammation, allergic phenotype, and asthma control status.
