Scabies, a parasitic skin infestation by the burrowing "itch" mite Sarcoptes scabiei, causes significant health problems for children and adults worldwide.
Bacterial colonisation of the airways is associated with increased risk of childhood asthma
Background: High incidence and serotype diversity of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) in Indigenous children in remote Australia led to rapid introduction of
Epidemiologic associations between viral lower respiratory infections (LRIs) and asthma in later childhood are well known
There is increasing evidence that the functional state of the immune system at birth is predictive of the kinetics of immune maturation in early infancy.
Researchers at The Kids Research Institute Australia have found children with vitamin D deficiency are more likely to develop asthma.
These data provide proof of concept supporting the rationale for developing transplacental immune reprogramming approaches for primary disease prevention
Our findings demonstrate the utility of unsupervised analysis in elucidating heterogeneity in asthma pathogenesis
GWAS analyses of allergic sensitization against inhalant allergens and nonallergic rhinitis suggested shared genetic mechanisms across rhinitis-related traits
Our findings provide new insight into the molecular mechanisms operative at baseline in the airway mucosa in atopic asthmatic with natural aeroallergen exposure
