The aim of this study was to explore associations between severe respiratory infections and atopy in early childhood with persisting wheeze and asthma.
Previous analyses of family data from the Tasmanian Longitudinal Health Study provide evidence that this phenotype has a stronger genetic cause than asthma...
Characterization of the complete IgE binding spectrum of cat allergens is important for the development of improved diagnosis and effective immunotherapeutics.
Vitamin D has been linked in some studies with atopy- and asthma-associated phenotypes in children with established disease,but its role in disease inception...
Atopic asthma is the most common form of asthma, particularly during childhood, and in many cases it persists into adult life.
Asthma exacerbations are heterogeneous conditions that involve the complex interplay between environmental exposures and innate and adaptive immune function
Interleukin-10 is a key immunomodulatory cytokine the principal function of which is to limit the magnitude of immune response.
The hallmark of atopic asthma is transient airways hyperresponsiveness (AHR) preceded by aeroallergen-induced Th-cell activation.
Childhood asthma is a condition characterized by airflow obstruction that varies in time spontaneously, in response to various environmental stimuli...
One of the major challenges in health studies with a spatial dimension is to produce valid and meaningful geographical representations of risk.
