Article Synopsis
- Asthma, rhinitis, and eczema are linked through complex genetic and environmental factors, involving both IgE and non-IgE mechanisms.
- The MeDALL project researched these links by tracking 44,010 participants across 14 European birth cohorts, using various epidemiological and mechanistic approaches over several years.
- Findings revealed that only 38% of cases of multimorbidity (having multiple allergies) are related to IgE sensitization, highlighting the need for a new understanding of allergy that includes distinct phenotypes for sensitization and multimorbidity.
Aim: We investigated whether paracetamol exposure in pregnancy and until 6 months of age was associated with allergic disease in school children.
Methods: In a prospective birth cohort study in Oslo, 1016 children included at birth were re-investigated at 10 years. Paracetamol exposure in pregnancy and until 6 months of age was registered.
