Adolescents’ jobs and the course of dermatitis symptoms throughout puberty

Prediction of the incidence and persistence of allergic rhinitis in adolescence: A prospective cohort study

“…[19][20][21] Overall, 4893 subjects agreed to be contacted again and were therefore eligible for follow-up (76.5%). A questionnaire with an informed consent form was mailed to these subjects At baseline, 85.3% of parents answered the questionnaire.…”

“…[18][19][20][21][22] Three thousand seven hundred eighty-five participants from the German study centers of Munich and Dresden were followed from childhood (age, 9-11 years) until adolescence (age, 15-18 years). This population-based cohort study offered the opportunity to develop predictive models for the incidence and persistence of AR over puberty, taking into account a variety of hereditary, environmental, and lifestyle factors as potential predictors.…”

Prediction of the incidence, recurrence, and persistence of atopic dermatitis in adolescence: A prospective cohort study

“…12,13 Dietary factors, such as breast-feeding, and infections or vaccinations early in life were found to be associated with a reduced incidence of AD. 14,15 Later in life, job exposure as a risk factor for the development of AD in adolescents seems also to be relevant, 16,17 although the evidence is not as strong as for the other risk factors. However, data on predictors of the course of AD later in life are sparse.…”

Leisure time activity and new onset of wheezing during adolescence

“…All subjects had to complete a questionnaire [10] with 121 questions focusing on: genetic factors; respiratory symptoms and diseases; housing; pets; active and passive smoking; occupational choice and working environment; leisure time activity; physical development; and stress factors, as previously published [11]. Subjects with asthma-related symptoms within the previous year were identified by the question: ''Have you had wheezing within the previous 12 months?''…”
