Non-specific bronchial hyper-responsiveness in children with allergic rhinitis: relationship with the atopic status
2003
An increased prevalence of bronchial hyper-responsiveness (BHR) has been demonstrated in children from a general population, and in non-asthmatic adults with allergic rhinitis. Thus, also children with allergic rhinitis are expected to be at higher risk of BHR. We evaluated the prevalence of BHR in a sample of non-asthmatic children with allergic rhinitis by means of the methacholine (Mch) bronchial challenge, and by monitorizing the airway patency using the daily peak expiratory flow variability (PEFv). Fifty-one children (ranged 6-15 years of age) with allergic rhinitis, ascertained by skin prick test to inhalant allergens, underwent a 14-day peak expiratory flow monitoring, and a Mch bro…

Il diritto a respirare aria sana nelle scuole è stato sancito già nell’anno 2001 in un documento dell’European Federation of Asthma and Allergy Associations che ha evidenziato scarsa attenzione e assenza di direttive specifiche dell’Unione Europea relativamente agli effetti sulla salute da inquinamento dell’aria nelle scuole, ed è sostenuto dal numero enorme di bambini e ragazzi che frequentano le aule scolastiche. Negli ultimi anni, a livello europeo si è sviluppato un sempre crescente interesse nei confronti dell’effetto della qualità dell’aria dell’indoor scolastico (IAQ) sulla salute dei ragazzi, e sono stati avviati numerosi progetti di ricerca internazionali mirati, appunto, a determi…

Sensitization to dust mite defines different phenotypes of asthma: A multicenter study
2017
Background Indoor allergens are risk factors for asthma: Thus, the characterization of indoor air quality is important for studying environment–health relationships in children. In particular, Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus is the dominant allergen for asthma. We cross-sectionally investigated the relationships among respiratory symptoms and function, airway inflammation, allergen sensitization, and indoor allergen concentration. Methods One hundred and thirty-two children aging 10-14 years and living in a Southern Mediterranean area were evaluated by parental questionnaires. Spirometry, exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO), skin prick tests, total, and specific serum IgE analyses were performed alo…
