Key assessments included asthma control (ACQ score), exacerbation frequency, HADS, PSQI, and SF\u201036 for quality of life. Immune markers (IgE, eosinophil count, IL\u20104, IL\u20105, IL\u201010) were measured. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses and ROC curves were used to identify predictors of asthma control and sleep quality.
