Birth by cesarean section, allergic rhinitis, and allergic sensitization among children with a parental history of atopy

Abstract: Background-Cesarean delivery may alter neonatal immune responses and increase the risk of atopy. Studies of the relation between cesarean delivery and allergic diseases in children not selected on the basis of a family history of atopy have yielded inconsistent findings.

“…(Eggesbo et al) and other studies [10,11] . But gestational age, birth weight, prior NICU admission did not show any significant relation with AR [12,13] . Most common symptoms for Allergic rhinitis are runny nose followed by sneezing, where as NAR presents with nasal obstruction.…”

“…3 Even though the World Health Organization recommends cesarean delivery as indicated choice of delivery mode in less than 15% of births, 4 many developed countries have a much higher prevalence, pointing toward a less strict medical indication for the procedure. 5,6 Cesarean delivery has been linked to the development of asthma and allergic rhinitis, [7][8][9][10] as well as other immune disorders [11][12][13][14][15][16] in the offspring.…”

“…Therefore, there is great controversy over some clinical indications for cesarean section. Cesarean section is associated with several conditions in the literature: Roduit, Scholtens, and Jongste (2009) associate it with an increased incidence of asthma; Pistiner, Gold, and Abdulkerim (2008) associate it with atopy; Hyde and Moodi (2012) associate it with type 1 diabetes; Decker, Hornef, and Stockinger (2011) associate it with inflammatory bowel disease; and Wang et al (2013) associate it with childhood obesity. In this way, cesarean sections with controversial indication can be considered unnecessary and a contributing factor to increased child morbidity rates.…”
