A Retrospective Study Examining Self-Reported Physical Activity Levels Among Asthma Patients Using the Behavioural Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) Database

Participants who self-reported not having asthma have a higher prevalence of physical activity in all categories studied. There is a significant association between physical activity and self-reported asthma, shaped by demographic and socioeconomic factors, as well as the frequency of routine medical check-ups.
