Maternal age at delivery and risk of allergy and asthma in the offspring: a systematic review and meta-analysis protocol
- 2020

In: BMJ Open. - : BMJ. - 2044-6055. ; 10:10

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- While several perinatal factors have been linked to the risk of developing asthma and allergy in childhood, the role of maternal age at delivery remains uncertain. Some studies suggest that young maternal age at delivery may increase the risk, while other studies suggested a reduced risk. To provide a clearer appreciation of the underlying evidence, we plan to undertake a systematic review to synthesise previous studies that have investigated the association between maternal age at delivery and the risk of asthma and allergy in the offspring.We will search PubMed, EMBASE, ISI Web of Science, Scopus and Google Scholar to identify relevant studies on the topic published in the databases from inception until October 2020. We will search databases of proceedings of international conferences, contact authors who have published on the topic and search the reference lists of the included studies in order to identify additional studies. Two investigators will independently screen the identified studies, perform data extraction and examine the risk of bias in the studies; a third investigator will arbitrate throughout these processes. We will use the Effective Public Health Practice Project tool for assessment of the risk of bias in included studies. We will perform random-effects meta-analysis to combine effect estimates from included studies judged to be homogeneous.Only data from the published literature will be included in this study, therefore no ethics approval is required. Our findings will be published in a peer-reviewed journal.The protocol has been submitted for registration on PROSPERO, University of York, and Centre for Review and Dissemination, now awaiting the assignment of a registration number.

Interaction of smoking and social status on the risk of respiratory outcomes in a Swedish adult population : A Nordic Epilung study
- 2023
-
In: Respiratory Medicine. - : Elsevier. - 0954-6111 .- 1532-3064. ; 211
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Background: Evidence abounds on the independent roles of social class and smoking in relation to obstructive airway diseases, but data are sparse on the impact of their interaction. We evaluated whether and to what extent social class and smoking interact in relation to risk of respiratory diseases in adults.Methods: Data from the population-based studies, West Sweden Asthma Study (WSAS, n = 23,753) and Obstructive Lung Disease in Northern Sweden studies (OLIN, n = 6519), were used, constituting randomly selected adults aged 20–75 years. Bayesian network analysis was used to estimate the probability for the interaction between smoking and socioeconomic status in relation to respiratory outcomes.Results: Occupational and educational SES modified the association between smoking and the probability of allergic and non-allergic asthma. Former smokers who were at intermediate non manual employees and manual workers in service had higher probability of allergic asthma compared to professionals and executives. Furthermore, former smokers with primary education had higher probability of non-allergic asthma than those with secondary and tertiary education. Similarly, former smokers among professionals and executives had higher probability of non-allergic asthma than manual and home workers and primary educated. Likewise, allergic asthma due to former smoking was higher among highly educated compared to low educated.Conclusions: Beyond their independent roles, socioeconomic status and smoking interact in defining the risk of respiratory diseases. Clearer understanding of this interaction can help to identify population subgroups at most need of public health interventions.

Socioeconomic status and different forms of rhinitis in Swedish adults
- 2024
-
In: Clinical and Translational Allergy. - : John Wiley & Sons. - 2045-7022. ; 14:6
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Rhinitis encompasses diverse forms. Each form has distinct pathophysiology and clinical manifestations and may be influenced by differential risk factors. The association between socioeconomic status (SES) and different forms of rhinitis remains poorly understood. Our aim was to examine SES variations in allergic rhinitis, chronic rhinitis, and chronic rhinosinusitis in adults.Based on a 2016 postal questionnaire survey within the West Sweden Asthma Study, we analyzed data from 36,213 subjects aged 16-75years. The measures of SES were levels of education and occupation. Adjusted logistic regression was used to examine associations between SES and the rhinitis outcomes.Attaining a secondary school and tertiary education, compared to a primary school, were associated with increased risk of allergic rhinitis (secondary OR 1.33, 95% CI 1.22-1.45; tertiary 1.54, 1.41-1.69) and chronic rhinitis (secondary 1.18, 1.08-1.29; tertiary 1.17, 1.06-1.28). The influence of occupation was consistent with respect to allergic rhinitis. For instance, compared to the lowest occupational skill level, the highest level (OR 1.24, 95% CI 1.04-1.48) and the lower high occupation levels (1.24, 1.04-1.49) were associated with an increased risk of allergic rhinitis. No significant link was found between education and chronic rhinosinusitis or between occupation levels and risk of either chronic rhinitis or chronic rhinosinusitis.Individuals with higher education and those at higher occupational levels may be at higher risk of having different forms of rhinitis than those at lower education and occupation levels. Assessment of rhinitis burden via SES can be one strategy to develop preventive strategies.
