Abstract

Asthma and wheezing illnesses carry a significant burden of disease during childhood. Prevalence studies have the capacity to provide invaluable insights into the nature of these common conditions. As part of the Isle of Wight Whole Population Birth Cohort Study (n=1456) we have examined wheezing and asthma development amongst 10-year-old children. At this age 1373 children completed ISAAC written questionnaires whilst 1043 children performed further testing including skin-prick testing, serum inhalant IgE antibody screening, spirometry and bronchial challenge. At 10-years, prevalence of current wheeze was 18.9%, current asthma (symptomatic bronchial hyper-responsiveness--BHR) 14.4% and currently diagnosed asthma (current wheeze and asthma ever--CDA) 13.0%. Both wheezing and asthma at 10 years were associated with average symptom onset at 3 years of age indicating an early life origin for such conditions. Current wheeze (P=0.011) and CDA (P=0.008) showed significant male predominance. Considerable disease morbidity was identified for these states that tended to be greatest amongst children defined asthmatic rather than simply current wheezers. Wheezing and asthma were significantly associated with both atopy (P<0.001) and aller...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.

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.
