Immunoglobulin E (IgE) plays a key role in allergy disease pathogenesis, but little is known about the environmental factors associated with higher IgE levels infants. The aim of this study was to determine risk for elevated serum total infants living Havana.Eight hundred and seventy-seven provided blood samples. Data on allergic symptoms wide range exposures were collected.The median 35 IU/ml (interquartile 13-96). having an level above children who had been breastfed 4 months or more...

Abstract Background Recurrent infections in childhood are the main cause of remission to immunology service. T lymphocytes generated thymus essential for fighting infection, making area an important predictor immune system’s competence. This study aimed identify possible relationship thymic with clinical-epidemiological variables and values subpopulations peripheral blood children recurrent infections. Methods We conducted applied research using a transversal analytical design at National...
