Abstract

The aim of the present study was to gain insight into the prevalence of asthma, allergic rhinitis, and eczema among Dutch early adolescents, and to study the impact of several social demographic and individual risk factors. Cross-sectional survey study using the self-report questionnaires of the International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood (ISAAC). In January 2003, 10 087 12- to 14-year-old students from 33 secondary schools in four regions of the Netherlands participated in this study. Of all participants, 52.6% reported that they had an allergic disease at least once in their lifetime. The 12 months prevalence of wheezing, rhinitis, and itchy rash was 12.3%, 28.3%, and 13.5%, respectively. Several social demographic and individual factors (gender, age, education levels, ethnicity, body mass index, and residential area) were significantly associated with the atopic symptoms and diseases. This study showed that allergic conditions are common in the Netherlands. Several social demographic and individual risk factors were related to the atopic diseases and symptoms.

Asthma

This feed focuses in Asthma in which your airways narrow and swell. This can make breathing difficult and trigger coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath.

Atopic Dermatitis

Atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory genetically determined disease of the skin marked by increased ability to form reagin (IgE), with increased susceptibility to allergic rhinitis and asthma, and hereditary disposition to a lowered threshold for pruritus. Discover the latest research on atopic dermatitis here.

Allergy and Asthma

Allergy and asthma are inflammatory disorders that are triggered by the activation of an allergen-specific regulatory t cell. These t cells become activated when allergens are recognized by allergen-presenting cells. Here is the latest research on allergy and asthma.

Allergies & Environmental Factors

Environmental factors are strongly associated with the prevalence of allergies and are an increasing health concern worldwide. Discover the latest research on Allergies and Environmental Factors here.
