“…It is also possible that migraines are not directly caused by asthma; shared environmental triggers may be responsible for the association between them. Studies have shown that air pollution, such as high concentrations of PM2.5, PM10, and NO 2 , can induce asthma and even aggravate its symptoms ( 37 ). Similarly, the rate of emergency treatments for migraines increases due to exposure to air pollution ( 38 ).…”

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine the association between asthma and migraine and assess the risk for migraine in patients with asthma.Methods: We systematically searched the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE), and Excerpta Medica dataBASE (EMBASE) databases from inception to September 26, 2021, for indexed observational studies that examined either the odds or risk of migraine in subjects with asthma. The qualities of the included studies were evaluated using the Newcastle–Ottawa Scale. A random-effects meta-analysis was performed to calculate the odds ratio for case-control and cross-sectional studies and the risk ratio for cohort studies.Results: Seven observational studies (four cross-sectional and three cohort studies) with a total of 549,534 study subjects were included in this systematic review and meta-analysis and selected for data extraction. Four articles were considered to be of moderate quality; other studies were considered to be of high quality. Asthma was associated with increased odds (OR, 1.85; 95%CI, 1.39–2.45) and risk of migraine (RR, 1.70; 95%CI, 1.52–1.90).Conclusions: The available evidence that supports the existence of an association between asthma and migraine is limited. Clinicians should be aware that patients with asthma show both increased prevalence and incidence of migraine. Further studies are warranted to further clarify the relationship between asthma and migraine.Systematic Review Registration:https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/display_record.php?RecordID=185881, identifier: CRD42020185881.

“…The exaggerated response of host immune systems to foreign antigens is a main cause of asthma/ALS. Allergens exposure may lead to the excessive IgE production and cellular responses, a trigger of asthma/ALS attack [10]. Hence, identification and avoidance of the prevalent allergens is helpful for the prevention and treatment of asthma/ALS.…”

Objective: We aimed to identify the prevalence and distribution patterns of allergens among Chinese children with asthma/asthma-like symptoms (ALS). Methods: A total of 3479 children with asthma/ALS were enrolled. Skin prick test (SPT) was used to test the allergen-specific IgE. We analysed allergens prevalence and distribution, and its relationship with demographic characteristics. Results: Aeroallergens prevalence was higher than that of food allergens (p < 10 − 4 ). Boys had higher aeroallergens prevalence than that in girls (p < 10 − 4 ). Significant difference of aeroallergens prevalence among cases with different parental allergy history was observed (p < 10 − 4 ). Age was positively associated with aeroallergens prevalence before the age of 11.5 (P < 10 − 4 ), particularly before the age of 2.42 (P < 10 − 4 ). Age was negatively associated with aeroallergens prevalence after the age of 11.5 (P = 0.021). Age was negatively associated with food allergens prevalence before the age of 3.42 (P < 10 − 4 ). Age was associated with the intensity of dermatophagoides farinae (DF)/house dust mite (HDM) allergens (P < 10 − 4 ). Age was negatively associated with the intensity of shrimp, and crab allergens before the age of 3.3 and 3.3, respectively (P = 0.012, < 10 − 4 ). Boys had higher intensity of DF and HDM allergens than that in girls (P < 10 − 4 , P < 10 − 4 ). Significant differences of the intensity of DF and HDM allergens among groups with different parental allergy history were noted (P < 10 − 4 , P < 10 − 4 ). Conclusions:Boys and parental allergy history were associated with higher prevalence and intenstity of aeroallergens. Age was positively and negatively associated with aeroallergens prevalence before and after the age of 11.5, respectively. Age was negatively associated with food allergens prevalence before the age of 3.42.

“…According to the WHO, allergic asthma -an immunemediated disease -ranks among the most common chronic medical conditions, affecting approximately 4% of the global population and 10% of Europeans [15,16]. The Global Initiative for Asthma report estimated the prevalence of asthma in various countries at 1% -18% of the population [16]. The ISAAC study found that asthma is more common in developed countries, while in developing countries it is more severe in children.…”

Introduction. Allergy affects approximately one-third of the world's population, and the rates are growing. In Europe, it has been noticed that the risk of asthma and allergy is lower in the rural as opposed to urban population. There is a tendency for several allergic diseases to be present in the same person at the same time. Objective. The aim of the study was to verify the co-occurrence of allergic multimorbidity and food allergy and intolerance in a group of children. Materials and method. The multicentre cross-sectional study enrolled 1,008 children and adolescence aged 6-18 years (51.2% boys, 48.8% girls). The study comprised a questionnaire (respondents' declarations) and an outpatient examination (diagnostic examination followed by a medical diagnosis). The study was conducted as part of the 2016-2020 National Health Programme. Results. In the study group, allergic rhinitis (AR) was present in 46.4%, bronchial asthma (BA) in 11.2% and atopic dermatitis (AD) in 6%. Allergic multimorbidity (simultaneous presence of 2 or more of the allergic diseases AR, BA and AD) was diagnosed in 9.7%. A single allergic disease (of the 3) was diagnosed in 43.4%. A diagnosis of food allergy and food intolerance was reported respectively at 29.6% and 14.3% participants with doctor-diagnosed allergic multimorbidity. Among those without any of the 3 allergic diseases, the percentage were 14.4% and 9.1%, respectively. Conclusions. Food allergy or food intolerance was more common in subjects with allergic multimorbidity than in subjects diagnosed with one allergic disease or those free of allergic diseases.
