Our findings suggest that the proportion of degranulated basophils can also be associated with recurrent exacerbations

The aim of this study was to longitudinally assess the prevalence of allergic sensitization, asthma, eczema and hay fever from infancy to adulthood

Airway interleukin-33 is associated with type-2 cytokines in naturally occurring asthma exacerbations in adults

This study demonstrates novel intrinsic differences in tight junctions gene and protein expression between airway epithelial cells of children with and without asthma

While spirometry contributes to asthma diagnosis and management in older children, it has a limited role in younger children whom are unable to perform FOM.

PLA2R1 is increased in the airway epithelium in asthma, and serves as a regulator of airway hyperresponsiveness, airway permeability, antigen sensitization, and airway inflammation

Human rhinovirus infection delays repair and inhibits apoptotic processes in epithelial cells from non-asthmatic and asthmatic children

Review treatment and primary prevention studies, recent meta-analyses, and discuss the current understanding of the role of probiotics in this context

The impact of breast milk feeding on susceptibility to asthma in childhood is highly controversial, due in part to failure of the majority of studies in the...
