Background: Understanding the trends of anaphylaxis and risk factors associated with its recurrence is essential for the effective management and prevention of this condition.
Objective: This study aimed to analyze the prevalence trends of anaphylaxis and identify risk factors for recurrence, with a focus on the influence of neighborhood deprivation and comorbidities, across all age groups.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective administrative cohort study on anaphylaxis utilizing the National Health Insurance-National Sample Cohort (NHIS-NSC) database in Korea (2002-2019).
Objective: To evaluate the association between neonatal bronchopulmonary dysplasia and the subsequent development of mental health conditions in children and adolescents.
Study Design: This was a retrospective cohort study, utilizing data from individuals born in South Korea between 2002 and 2005 and followed up until 2021, using the National Health Insurance Database. The cohort included 1 893 314 participants born during that period, with 927 diagnosed with bronchopulmonary dysplasia during the neonatal period (the exposed cohort).
Article Synopsis
- Wheezing in early life, often due to viral infections, may lead to an increased risk of autoimmune diseases in children.
- A study in Korea compared 34,959 children with early wheezing to similarly matched controls, finding that those with wheezing had higher incidence rates of autoimmune diseases over 15 years.
- The research highlights specific autoimmune conditions linked to wheezing, indicating a need for further understanding of how early respiratory issues can impact long-term health.
Background: Atopic dermatitis and autoimmune diseases are highly heritable conditions that may co-occur from an early age.
Methods: The primary study is a national administrative cohort study involving 499,428 children born in 2002, tracked until 2017. Atopic dermatitis was defined as five or more principal diagnoses of atopic dermatitis and two or more topical steroid prescriptions.
Background: infection is common in the general population and may be followed by immune dysfunction, but links with subsequent autoimmune disease remain inconclusive.
Objective: To estimate the association of infection with the risk of subsequent autoimmune disease.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study examined the medical records of South Korean children from 01/01/2002 to 31/12/2017.
The timing of complementary food (CF) introduction is closely related to childhood health, and it may vary depending on the region, culture, feeding type, or health condition. Despite numerous studies on the benefits of breastfeeding and the optimal timing of CF introduction, there have been limited investigations regarding delayed CF introduction in exclusively breastfed children. We compared an exposed group (CF introduction ≥7 months) with a reference group (CF introduction at 4 -< 7 months) regarding hospital admission, disease burden, and growth until age 10.
