Association Between Asthma and Obesity Among Immigrant Asian Americans, California Health Interview Survey, 2001-2011.

Association Between Asthma and Obesity Among Immigrant Asian Americans, California Health Interview Survey, 2001-2011.

Prev Chronic Dis. 2014;11:E209

Authors: Becerra BJ, Scroggins CM, Becerra MB

Abstract
Our objective was to study the comorbidity of asthma and obesity among foreign-born Asian Americans, by subgroups. Public data from the California Health Interview Survey, 2001-2011, were analyzed by using independent logistic regressions, yielding the association between asthma and obesity (Asian and standard cutoffs for body mass index [BMIs]) of 19,841 Asian American immigrant respondents. Chinese, Filipino, South Asian, and Japanese immigrants had a positive association between lifetime asthma and obesity, whereas among Korean immigrants, a positive association was found between lifetime asthma and overweight status (standard BMI cutoffs). Routine screening for this comorbidity is warranted among immigrant Asian Americans.
