Exposure to farming in early life and development of asthma and allergy: a cross-sectional survey.
BACKGROUND A farming environment protects against development of asthma, hay fever, and atopic sensitisation in children. We aimed to establish whether increased exposure to microbial compounds has to occur early in life to affect maturation of the immune system and thereby reduces risk for development of allergic diseases. METHODS We did a cross-sectional survey in rural areas of Austria, Ge...
متن کاملAssociation of fatty acids in serum phospholipids with hay fever, specific and total immunoglobulin E.
The dietary intake of certain fatty acids might contribute to the development of allergic diseases such as hay fever and asthma. We investigated the association between the concentrations of fifteen fatty acids in serum phospholipids, as a marker of dietary intake and metabolism, and hay fever, allergic sensitisation and total IgE in adults. Data from a population-based cross-sectional study on...
متن کاملDoes a higher number of siblings protect against the development of allergy and asthma? A review.

متن کاملThe influence of sensitisation to pollens and moulds on seasonal variations in asthma attacks

Differences in seasonal patterns by sensitisation status were assessed using generalised ...
