1. 1. Epidemiological Studies of Childhood Wheeze - Risk factors and Long-term Outcome

   Författare :Emma Goksör; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :children; wheezing; asthma; smoke exposure; gender; antibiotics; fish; paracetamol;

   Sammanfattning : Wheezing with viral infections is common in childhood and both genetic and environmental factors have been reported to influence the risk of subsequent asthma development. The overall aim of this thesis was to study the factors influencing the risk of wheezing at preschool age and the long-term outcome following severe wheezing in early life. LÄS MER

3. 2. Indoor environment and recurrent wheezing in young children

   Nyckelord :Child; asthma; allergy; wheezing; air pollution; NO2; indoor air quality; building construction; ventilation system; indoor humidity; house dust mites; damp buildings; moisture; moulds; prospective studies; child;

   Sammanfattning : Recurrent wheezing is one of the most common causes of morbidity and hospitalisation among infants and young children in many westernised countries. Respiratory infections and exposure to tobacco smoke have been identified as important risk factors. The indoor environment is also clearly of importance since we spend most of our time indoors.

4. 3. Parental smoking, wheezing and sensitisation in early childhood

   Författare :Eva Lannerö; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to explore the possible effects of exposure to cigarette smoking during foetal and early postnatal life on lower respiratory disease and sensitisation in children up to four years of age. A prospective birth cohort of 4,089 newborn infants (BAMSE) was followed during four years using parental questionnaires. LÄS MER

In Paper I and Paper II we explored determinants of respiratory disease. LÄS MER

7. 5. Development of allergy, salivary IgA antibodies and gut microbiota in a Swedish birth cohort

   Författare :Anna Sandin; Agnes Wold; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :pet keeping; sensitisation; intestinal microflora; short chain fatty acids; allergy; salivary IgA; late-onset wheezing; pediatrik; Pediatrics;

   Sammanfattning : The increasing prevalence of allergic diseases in affluent societies has been associated with changes in microbial exposure early in life and a less diverse gut flora. The objective of this thesis was to assess the development of allergic sensitisation and symptoms during the first four years of life in a non-selected birth cohort in relation to environmental factors, family history, gut microbiota and salivary IgA antibodies.
