The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology included an article in its August 2018 edition evaluating “the effectiveness of supervised therapy” in elementary schools on asthma control. Researchers “conducted a cluster-randomized trial of supervised therapy in 20 elementary schools with a disproportionate enrollment of low-income Latino students.” Schools were “purposively selected, matched, and randomized to receive 9-months of supervised therapy” or “usual care.” The researchers found that “supervised therapy did not improve asthma control among this population of Latino students.”
