We have examined the association between NSAID-exacerbated respiratory disease (NERD) and genetic variants in arachidonic acid metabolism genes. PATIENTS & METHODS: We included 250 NERD patients, 260 NSAID-tolerant asthmatic (NTA) subjects and 315 healthy controls. RESULTS: Significant associations with NERD were identified for: ALOX15...
