We appreciate this correspondence from Bousquet et al1 that our study affirms the importance of the allergy multimorbid, polysensitized phenotype in childhood asthma severity. In our Inner-City Asthma Consortium's Asthma Phenotypes in the Inner City study of children with persistent asthma characterized with 1 year of guidelines-based asthma and rhinitis management, 1 phenotype, cluster E, was distinguished by high asthma severity and exacerbation rates, as well as allergic multimorbidity and polysensitization.
