A study of the prevalence of adult asthma (subjects over 18 years of age) has been carried out in the Puy-de-Dôme area over the past two years by means of a questionnaire sent out to all the doctors in the area. 1,130 asthmatics have been inventoried to this day (547 males and 583 females). A study of the geographical distribution carried out in terms of demographic data on thhe present time, but is certainly underestimated. Correspondence analysis shows up the influence of age on the severity of the attacks. Frequency calculation and the cumulated frequency of the answers to the question concerning the date of the onset of asthma, leads to the conclusion that there will probably be an important increase of cases of late asthma in the next few years. The socio-economic and professional (sick leave, change of job) effects of this type of asthma in adults are analysed.
在过去两年里，通过向普伊-德多姆地区所有医生发放调查问卷的方式，对该地区成人哮喘（18岁以上人群）的患病率进行了一项研究。截至目前，已登记了1130名哮喘患者（547名男性和583名女性）。根据当前人口统计数据进行的地理分布研究，但肯定被低估了。对应分析显示了年龄对发作严重程度的影响。对哮喘发病日期问题答案的频率计算和累积频率表明，未来几年晚发性哮喘病例可能会大幅增加。分析了这种类型的成人哮喘的社会经济和职业影响（病假、工作变动）。
