    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Children with problematic severe asthma (PA) have persistent symptoms and/or severe exacerbations despite treatment with high doses of currently available asthma medications. The term PA includes children who are difficult to treat due to unidentified exacerbating factors (e.g. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Severe asthma and asthma control in schoolchildren

Children with problematic severe asthma have a disproportionate consumption of health care, despite high-dose treatment with inhaled corticosteroids (ICS). LÄS MER

  7. 5. Allergy diagnosis in children IgE-sensitized to peanut : clinical and immunological evaluation

    Författare :Susanne Glaumann; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Peanut allergy is often life-long and affects quality of life since accidental ingestion may lead to severe or even fatal reactions. Sensitization to peanut can be due to genuine peanut allergy or to cross-sensitization due to birch pollen. LÄS MER
