Asthma is a continuing problem in the western world, with 5 per cent of the population suffering from this disorder at some time during their lives. Patients with hyperresponsive airways are those whose respiratory systems are unusually sensitive to outside stimuli such as cold and dust, and there has been considerable controversy over the suggestion that this may be a major cause of asthma.
