Managing Chronic Cough as a Symptom in Children and Management Algorithms: CHEST Guideline and Expert Panel Report
2020, ChestCitation Excerpt :Likewise, ‘allergic cough’ is a poorly defined condition even in adults and its relationship to childhood cough probably represents an overlap with asthma, allergic rhinitis and adenoid tonsillar hypertrophy.151 There is little doubt that atopy is increased in children with asthma but in children without asthma, findings regarding cough and atopy are inconsistent with reports of increased atopy (or diseases associated with atopy) in children with cough described152,153 as well as the absence of influence of atopy45,46,154 (e-Table 5). Using various markers of atopy (eg, skin prick test, radioallergosorbent test, or specific IgE tests) are unlikely to determine children with cough who will respond to asthma therapies.
Meta-analysis of the comorbidity rate of allergic rhinitis and asthma in Chinese children
2018, International Journal of Pediatric OtorhinolaryngologyCitation Excerpt :The symptoms of AR usually precede those of asthma. Peat et al have demonstrated that the age of onset of atopy was an important factor for the development of asthma and AR or AR alone [33]. The follow-up study by Settipane et al discovered the patients with nasal symptoms and a positive skin prick tests, reporting that in ten years, 50% of the tested patients had the same symptoms, while 20% developed asthma [34].
Natural history of skin prick test reactivity: A 20-year prospective study of a random population sample of children and adolescents
2017, Annals of Allergy, Asthma and ImmunologyCitation Excerpt :We performed analyses in which we excluded the American house dust mite (D farinae), and it did not change the overall results. We found that during this study from childhood and teenage years into adulthood more individuals developed sensitization than lost sensitization, which is comparable to cross-sectional studies indicating that sensitization peaks in early adulthood16,21,22 and longitudinal studies following up individuals from childhood to adolescence.12,13 Peat et al13 found a 16% increase in sensitization in a 4-year longitudinal study in children 8 to 10 years old to 12 to 16 years old (n = 380).

In Australia, the 4-year incidence was 15%,16 while a lower incidence was reported from Isle of Wight, 14%, over 6 years.15 However, completely accurate comparisons are difficult because the ages under study and the studied allergens differ somewhat.15,16
