[[abstract]]OBJECTIVES: A significant proportion of cardiovascular disease (CVD) cannot be explained by well-known risk factors such as high cholesterol, hypertension and diabetes. One potential novel risk factor for CVD is asthma. We aimed to investigate the association between asthma and mortality due to CVD. DESIGN: Prospective cohort study. SETTING: A large health check-up programme from 1994 to 2011 in Taipei, Taiwan. PARTICIPANTS: 446 346 Taiwanese adults. Each participant answered questions regarding asthma history (yes/no) and current daily use of asthma medications (yes/no). Active asthma was defined as those using current daily medications for asthma. OUTCOMES: The participants were followed for mortality from CVD, coronary heart ...
