Risk factors for recurrent wheezing in the first year of life in the city of Córdoba, Argentina
2017, Allergologia et ImmunopathologiaCitation Excerpt :Recent studies have shown it is a growing cause of emergency room visits in Argentina.4 New evidence suggests that the genetic background could be altered by exposure to environmental risk factors, even biological ones, in the first three months of life.5,6 Children born by Caesarean section have less diversity in their intestinal microbiota during their first two years of life than those born vaginally.
Inflammatory markers predict episodes of wheezing during the first year of life in Bangladesh
2016, Respiratory MedicineCitation Excerpt :Future studies will examine the etiology of the association between increased serum cytokines and level of retinol binding protein and wheezing to determine if enteropathogen burden or dietary vitamin A intake associate with serum retinol levels and wheezing in these children. Low family income has in other studies also been associated with increased episodes of wheezing in the 1st year of life, as has male gender [34,35]. In this study, these were independent of inflammation in multivariable analysis, suggesting that their potential to promote wheezing is through some mechanism other than inflammation.

2013, Jornal de PediatriaCitation Excerpt :Exposure to pollutants may be associated with respiratory symptoms such as wheezing, not only as a triggering factor, but also as a risk factor for the development of asthma, according to the results of a cohort study of 4,089 Swedish children, which demonstrated that exposure to air pollution from traffic during the first year of life was associated with risk of persistent wheezing and low lung function at the age of 4 years.27 In a Chilean cohort study, the prevalence of wheezing in the first year of life was high (80.3%), and it was observed that 82.2% of the children were exposed to pollutants resulting from the fuel used for heating or cooking (kerosene, gas), and that 38.5% of the homes were located on unpaved roads.23 As the pollution exposure was known only through parental report, this result must be analyzed with caution, as it lacks objective measures to assess the degree of intra- and extra-domiciliary environment pollution.
Study of wheezing and its risk factors in the first year of life in the Province of Salamanca, Spain. The EISL Study
2012, Allergologia et ImmunopathologiaCitation Excerpt :Wheezing is very common in the first months of life. A recent study of families with a low socioeconomic level in Latin America11 has found that during the first year of life, 80.3% of all infants had suffered one or more wheezing episodes, 43.1% had recurrent wheezing (RW), and 13.3% had suffered pneumonia. Although the magnitude of the problem is different in Europe, the ALSCAP study,12 carried out in the city of Bristol (United Kingdom), found 21.5% of the infants under six months of age to have experienced wheezing at least once.
