Participants meeting the criteria for full or sub-threshold post-traumatic stress disorder and relation to respiratory outcomes—univariate and adjusted analysis.

Unadjusted analysis
Full PTSD, n = 51 Sub-threshold PTSD, n = 46 No PTSD, n = 84 p-value
Asthma control (ACQ score, sd) 2.0 (1.0) 1.4 (1.2) 1.2 (1.1) 0.0003
Quality of life (AQLQ score, sd) 4.2 (1.0) 4.8 (1.1) 5.1 (1.1) <0.0001
One or more outpatient visits during last year due to asthma (No, %) 18 (35) 15 (33) 18 (21) 0.20
One or more inpatient visits during last year due to asthma (No, %) 17 (33) 5 (9) 8 (10) 0.0007
Adjusted analysis
Full PTSD, n = 51 Sub-threshold PTSD, n = 46 No PTSD, n = 84 p-value
Asthma control, mean difference (95% CI) 0.57 (0.12, 1.02) 0.06 (−0.35, 0.47) Reference 0.04
Quality of life, mean difference (95% CI) −0.83 (−1.32, −0.34) −0.38 (−0.83, 0.07) Reference 0.002
One or more outpatient visits during last year due to asthma, OR (95% CI) 2.32 (0.90, 6.00) 1.85 (0.77, 4.43) Reference 0.17
One or more inpatient visits during last year due to asthma, OR (95% CI) 11.86 (3.51, 40.09) 1.70 (0.47, 6.08) Reference 0.0002

Adjusted for age, sex, education, race/ethnicity, and depression; CI = 95% Confidence interval; OR = Odds ratio.
