This is one good example of how children aren't just small adults and extrapolating our experience treating 'acid asthma' successfully in adults isn't transferrable.
The findings in this study isn't surprising since we do know that asthma is an atopic disease which peaks in early childhood and abates after puberty, while the adult variety is a residual of that or a different entity altogether.
The premise for the success of PPIs in adults I believe is that reflux is responsible for prolonging asthma beyond childhood and also for new onset bronchospasm mimicking asthma.
