THORAX ABDOMEN AND PELVIS

Detailed explanation-1: -Eosinophilic asthma (EA) is a type of severe asthma. It’s marked by high levels of white blood cells. These cells, called eosinophils, are a natural part of your body’s immune system. They fight infections and attack invading bacteria.

Detailed explanation-2: -Eosinophilic asthma is a type of asthma that is caused by high levels of white blood cells called eosinophils in the airways of the lungs. The purpose of these white blood cells is to help you fight infections. Sometimes these immune cells are over-reactive and cause inflammation in the body, including in the lungs.

Detailed explanation-3: -Eosinophilic inflammation can be associated with the whole spectrum of asthma severity, ranging from mild-to-moderate to severe uncontrolled disease, whereas neutrophilic inflammation occurs mostly in more severe asthma.

Detailed explanation-4: -Asthma is commonly associated with peripheral blood eosinophilia. However, markedly increased levels are not common in allergic asthma and a high index of suspicion for another cause is required especially if patients do not respond to inhaled corticosteroid therapy.
