Introduction Respiratory diseases, including asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and other lung conditions, pose great challenges to global health by contributing to high morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs [[1], [2], [3], [4]]. Asthma affects millions worldwide and is characterized by airway inflammation and hyperresponsiveness, leading to recurring episodes of wheezing, breathlessness, and chest tightness [5,6].
Highlights • Effects of non-response in population surveys need to be evaluated continously. • Minimal effect was seen on prevalence estimates of asthma and respiratory symptoms. • The prevalence of smoking and allergic rhinoconjunctivitis was underestimated. Abstract Background A high participation rate is warranted in order to ensure validity in surveys of the general population. However, participation rates in such studies have declined during the last decades.
