Showing results for "vitamin d asthma"
The Kids Research Institute Australia researchers are at the forefront of asthma research globally. Watch Karen's story to learn why it's so important.
Researchers are urging caution in the use of a widely accepted test for diagnosing asthma, after their study found it may not be accurate in some settings.
This study is designed to identify the specific unique immune cell response that occurs in these children with recurrent disease.
The study aims to identify the mechanism for this so that this knowledge can be used to better treat asthma and allergies in both males and females.
This study aims to show that asthma and allergies in individuals can be predicted before it occurs based on individual family history and information on the early environment.
The immunological mechanisms that contribute to multiple sclerosis (MS) differ between males and females. Females are 2-3 times more likely to develop MS compared to males, however the reason for this discrepancy is unknown. Once MS is established, there is a more inflammatory yet milder form of disease in females whereas males generally suffer from more severe disease and faster progression, neural degradation, and disability.
Childhood asthma begins as wheeze (a whistling sound produced by the airways during breathing) during preschool age.
IgE antibodies in house dust mite (HDM) allergy follow a predictable pattern. Half are directed against two dominant allergens and the remainder largely against
Early immunological influences on asthma development: opportunities for early intervention
Asthma is more common in childhood than in adulthood and is more correctly thought of as a syndrome than as a discrete condition.
