چکیده
RESULTS. Thirty-two percent of the parents of the study children had asthma. Asthma at age 7 years was associated with parental history of asthma (odds ratio [OR] 3.9), allergic sensitization to dust mite (OR 3.3), African American race (OR 3.2), and high ERMI (OR 2.4) by multivariate analysis. Air-conditioning was associated with a decreased risk of asthma (OR 0.3). Mold exposure at age 7 years was not associated with an increased risk of asthma. There was no difference in mold sensitization between groups with high ERMI or low ERMI. The odds of having a home with a high ERMI was associated with African American race (OR 3.0) and negatively associated with air-conditioning use (OR 0.4).

متن کاملThe Association between Obesity and Severityof Asthma in Children
Introduction: Asthma is the most common chronic airway disease in children, which is caused by genetic and environmental factors such as obesity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between obesity and asthma severity in children. Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive study included 200 asthmatic children aged 6 to 12 years in Yazd Shohadaye Kargar hospital in 2015 - 201...
متن کاملIL-23 Gene and Protein Expression in Childhood Asthma
Background: Asthma is the chronic inflammation of airways characterized by eosinophilic infiltration, mucus overproduction, airway hyper-responsiveness and airway remodeling. These changes are induced mostly by cytokines which are produced by T helper (Th) 2 cells. Recently, the role of interleukin-23 (IL-23) in the pathogenesis of adultallergic asthma has been studied. Objective: To explore IL...
متن کاملThe preventive effect of Brassica napus L. oil on pathophysiological changes of respiratory system in experimental asthmatic rat
Objective: Asthma is an airway complex disease defined by reversible airway narrowing and obstruction, chronic airway inflammation, airway hyperresponsiveness, and tissue remodeling. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of Brassica napus L. (B. napus) on airway pathologic changes in a rat model of asthma. Materials and Methods: Twenty-four rats were divided into 4 groups: contr...
متن کاملImmune dysregulation in children with allergic asthma, a close relationship between IL-17 but not IL-4 or IFN-, and disease severity
Background : Allergic asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of airway that often determined with degrees of inflammation, hypersensitivity, bronchial constriction and airway changes. Th1, Th2 and Th17 cells are the main cells involved in the pathophysiology of asthma. . Therefore, this study evaluated Th1, Th2, and Th17 cells functions by assessment the expression of INF-g, IL-4, and IL-17 g...
