Environmental exposure to phthalates and bisphenol A (BPA), chemicals used in the production of plastics, may increase risk for asthma and allergies. However, little is known about the long-term effects of early life exposure to these compounds.
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.
Children with asthma face serious mental health risk, but the pathways remain unclear.
