Abstract

We aimed to identify factors associated with recurrent wheezing (RW) in infants in the first year of life living in the Southern region of São Paulo city and participating in the "Estudio Internacional de Sibilancias en Lactantes (EISL)" - phase 3 (P3). 1335 parents of infants who were attended in primary care health units in the Southern region of São Paulo city from 2009 to 2010 answered the EISL-P3 written questionnaire. The wheezing group was stratified in accordance to the frequency of wheezing episodes as occasional wheezing (OW, less than three episodes), or RW (three or more episodes). Wheezing-associated factors were evaluated using multivariate analysis and were expressed as odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95%CI). The most relevant factors related to OW were pneumonia (OR=3.10, 95%CI=1.68-5.73), hospitalisation due to pneumonia (OR=2.88, 95%CI=1.26-6.56) and recurrent upper respiratory infection (URI, OR=1.87, 95%CI=1.25-2.81). Regarding RW, recurrent URI (OR=5.34, 95%CI=3.83-7.45), pneumonia (OR=4.06, 95%CI=2.87-5.74) and asthmatic siblings (OR=3.02, 95%CI=1.67-5.45) were the most significantly associated factors. In the present study, we found that recurrent URI, positive history of pneumonia and famili...Continue Reading

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.
