Control of Allergic Rhinitis and Asthma Test (CARAT) can be used to assess individual patients over time

Table 3 – Spearman’s correlations of CARAT10 and its factors with external measures of rhinitis and asthma control in the first visit

		Symptoms VAS			Physician assessment
	ACQ5	All symptoms	Bronchial/pulmonary symptoms	Nasal symptoms	Asthma control	Rhinitis control
CARAT10	−0.79	−0.76	−0.75	−0.69	0.58	0.34*
Rhinitis subscore	−0.50	−0.59	−0.51	−0.70	0.35*	0.43
Asthma subscore	−0.78	−0.62	−0.71	−0.49	0.65	0.24#

The correlations between the measures of similar domains are shown in bold.
All correlations coefficients met the a priori predictions and were statistically significant with p < 0.001, except * p < 0.01 and # p = 0.073.
