   The locus <em>C11orf30</em> increases susceptibility to poly-sensitization

   Relevance:

   A number of genetic variants have been associated with allergic sensitization, but whether these are allergen specific or increase susceptibility to poly-sensitization is unknown. Using data from the

2. Follow-up on genome-wide main effects: do polymorphisms modify the air pollution effect on lung function decline in adults? (Publications)

   Follow-up on genome-wide main effects: do polymorphisms modify the air pollution effect on lung function decline in adults?

   Relevance:

   Improved air quality has been found associated with attenuated age-related decline in lung function. But whether genetic polymorphisms strongly associated with lung function play a modifying role in t

    Changes in IgE sensitization and total IgE levels over 20 years of follow-up

    Relevance:

    BACKGROUND: Cross-sectional studies have reported a lower prevalence of sensitization in older adults, but few longitudinal studies have examined whether this is an aging or a year-of-birth cohort eff
