• Work‐related asthmas (WRAs) mean those that are related to occupations.

• Occupational asthma (OA) means those that are related to occupations and caused by allergens existing in the workplace.

• Sensitizer‐induced asthmas mean those that are associated with an immunological and allergic mechanism.

• Irritant‐induced asthmas (IIAs) mean those that occur due to aspiration of a large quantity of an irritant at the workplace.

• Work‐aggravated (exacerbated) asthmas mean those that are pre‐existent and aggravated by gas, cool air, or dust aspirated at the workplace.

The correct Table 1 is shown below.

The publisher apologizes for this error and any confusion it may have caused.
