Journal ArticleDOI
Worldwide time trends in the prevalence of symptoms of asthma, allergic rhinoconjunctivitis, and eczema in childhood: ISAAC Phases One and Three repeat multicountry cross-sectional surveys
M. Innes Asher,Stephen Montefort,Bengt Björkstén,Christopher K.W. Lai,David P. Strachan,Stephan K. Weiland,Hywel C Williams +6 more
TL;DR: The rise in prevalence of symptoms in many centres is concerning, but the absence of increases in prevalence in asthma symptoms for centres with existing high prevalence in the older age-group is reassuring.
Journal ArticleDOI

M. I. Asher,U. Keil,H. R. Anderson,Richard Beasley,J. Crane,Fernando D. Martinez,Ed A. Mitchell,Neil Pearce,B. Sibbald,Alistair Stewart,David P. Strachan,Stephan K. Weiland,Hywel C Williams +12 more
TL;DR: The International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood (ISAAC), was founded to maximize the value of epidemiological research into asthma and allergic disease, by establishing a standardized methodology and facilitating international collaboration.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The results indicate that genetic variants regulating ORMDL3 expression are determinants of susceptibility to childhood asthma.
Journal ArticleDOI

Robertson,Alistair Stewart,Nadia Aït-Khaled,Gabriel Anabwani,Ross Anderson,Innes Asher,Richard Beasley,Bengt Björkstén,Michael Leslie Burr,Tadd Clayton,Julian Crane,Philippa Ellwood,Ulrich Keil,Christopher K C Lai,Javier Mallol,Fernando D. Martinez,Edwin A. Mitchell,Stephen Montefort,Neil Pearce,Jayant Shah,Bonnie Sibbald,David P. Strachan,Erika von Mutius,Stephan K. Weiland +24 more
TL;DR: Symptoms of atopic eczema exhibit wide variations in prevalence both within and between countries inhabited by similar ethnic groups, suggesting that environmental factors may be critical in determining disease expression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global variation in the prevalence and severity of asthma symptoms: Phase Three of the International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood (ISAAC)
Christopher K C Lai,Richard Beasley,Julian Crane,Sunia Foliaki,Jayant Shah,Stephan K. Weiland +5 more
TL;DR: Wide variations exist in the symptom prevalence of childhood asthma worldwide, and although asthma symptoms tend to be more prevalent in more affluent countries, they appear to beMore severe in less affluent countries.
