    Abstract Obesity is an important public health problem. WHO estimates that about 39 million children younger than 5 years of age are overweighted or obese. On the other hand, asthma is the most prevalent chronic disease in childhood, and thus, many children share those two conditions. In the present paper we review the epidemiology of children with asthma and obesity, as well as the consequences of being obese on the respiratory system. On the one hand obesity produces an underlying T-helper 2 (TH2) low inflammation state in which numerous cytokines, which could have an impact in the respiratory system play, a role. On the other hand, some respiratory changes have been described in obese children and, specially, the development of the so called "dysanapsis" (the disproportionate scaling of airway dimensions to lung volume) which seems to be common during the first stages of life, probably related to the early development of this condition. Finally, this review deals with the role of adipokines and insulin resistance in the inception and worsening of asthma in the obese child.

    Abstract Objectives: To investigate the relationship between antibiotic exposure and asthma in adults in the United States.
    Methods: Data was obtained from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) conducted between 1999 and 2018. A total of 51,124 participants were included, excluding those who were aged < 20 years, female participants who were pregnant, and individuals who did not complete the prescription medications questionnaire and the medical conditions questionnaire regarding asthma status. Antibiotic exposure was defined as the utilization of antibiotics within the past 30 days, categorized based on the Multum Lexicon Plus therapeutic classification system. Asthma was defined as having a history of asthma or having an asthma attack or wheezing symptoms in the past year.
    Results: The risk of asthma was found to be 2.557 (95% CI: 1.811, 3.612), 1.547 (95% CI: 1.190, 2.011) and 2.053 (95% CI: 1.344, 3.137) times greater in participants who had used macrolide derivatives, penicillin and quinolones in the past 30 days, respectively, compared with those not using antibiotics. After adjusting for demographic covariates and asthma-related factors, only macrolides derivatives were significantly associated with asthma in the 20-40 and 40-60 age groups. For individuals over 60 years old, quinolones were significantly associated with asthma. The effect of different types of antibiotic with asthma varied in male and female populations. Moreover, higher socioeconomic status, greater BMI, younger age, smoking habits, history of infection, chronic bronchitis, emphysema, and family history of asthma were all identified as risk factors for asthma.
    Conclusion: Our study indicated that three types of antibiotics were significantly associated with asthma in different subgroups of the population. Therefore, the use of antibiotics should be more strictly regulated.

    Abstract Background: Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a class of chemicals widely used in manufacturing and are highly resistant to degradation, so they accumulate in the environment. Serum concentrations of these so-called forever chemicals have been associated with impairment of innate and adaptive immune responses. The relationship between serum PFAS levels and asthma morbidity has not been studied.
    Objective: We tested the association between serum PFAS concentration and asthma exacerbations.
    Methods: We performed secondary analysis of data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES, 2003-18). We fit multivariable logistic regression models to estimate odds ratios and 95% CIs for asthma exacerbation in the prior 12 months, given serum concentrations of PFAS. Models were adjusted for relevant covariates.
    Results: Of 1101 participants with self-reported current asthma and available serum PFAS data, we observed that higher serum perfluorooctanoic and perfluorodecanoic acids were associated with greater odds of asthma attacks in the previous 12 months (respectively, adjusted odds ratio 1.16, 95% CI 1.01, 1.33; and adjusted odds ratio 1.21, 95% CI 1.03, 1.43). After stratification by age, the association between perfluorooctanoic acid and asthma attacks was significant in the 12-18-year-old group only (adjusted odds ratio 1.56, 95% CI 1.06, 2.31). No significant relationships were observed between PFAS and asthma-related emergency department visits. After correction for multiple comparison testing, none of the associations reached the threshold of significance.
    Conclusion: The role of these bioaccumulative forever chemicals in susceptibility to asthma attacks warrants further examination in longitudinal studies. (J Allergy Clin Immunol Global 2023;2:100078.).

    Abstract The purpose of this Special Issue, "Nutrition and Allergic Diseases", is to provide an overview of the role of nutrition in allergy. The prevalence of asthma, rhinitis, and food allergy has increased tremendously over the last few decades. Is there a role for nutrition to help managing this global challenge? This Special Issue touches upon the many aspects that relate to nutrition and allergy and focuses on two fundamental questions:1) Can nutrition play a role in allergy prevention and induction?2) Can nutrition play a role in managing allergies?The topics covered range from the epidemiology of nutrition and allergy prevalence to the description of food components known to have beneficial effects on allergy, and include the importance of pregnancy and breastfeeding, the possibility of therapeutically targeting the microbiota in allergic diseases (with pre- or probiotics), the allergic effects of food processing, food allergies and related available treatments

    Abstract Background: The association between Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) infection, a common infectious disease that increases the incidence of multisystem diseases, and asthma was less well studied. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between HSV-2 infection and the prevalence of asthma.
    Materials and methods: We used data from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999-2016 for analysis. The study population included was limited to those aged 20-45 years and contained complete information on HSV-2 infection and asthma. We calculated the prevalence of HSV-2, asthma, and HSV-2 combined with asthma separately. The association between HSV-2 infection and asthma was analyzed using multiple logistic regression. We also performed stratified analyses to reduce bias and to find sensitive cohorts.
    Results: The prevalence of HSV-2 infection was decreasing with change in time period (P for trend < 0.01), but the prevalence of asthma was increasing (P for trend < 0.01). The prevalence of HSV-2 infection was higher in those with asthma than in non-asthma participants. A positive association was found between HSV-2 infection and asthma [odds ratio (OR) = 1.15, 95% CI: 1.04-1.27]. Subgroup analysis showed that this positive association was more pronounced in participants who were male, White, 30 years ≤ age ≤ 40 years, body mass index (BMI) ≤ 28 kg/m
    Conclusion: There was a positive association between HSV-2 infection and asthma, and participants who were male, White race, 30 years ≤ age < 40 years, BMI ≥ 28 kg/m

    Abstract Background: Primary prevention strategies for asthma are lacking. Its inception probably starts in utero and/or during the early postnatal period as the developmental origins of health and disease (DOHaD) paradigm suggests.
    Objectives: The main objective of Nutrition in Early Life and Asthma (NELA) cohort study is to unravel whether the following factors contribute causally to the developmental origins of asthma: (1) maternal obesity/adiposity and foetal growth; (2) maternal and child nutrition; (3) outdoor air pollution; (4) endocrine disruptors; and (5) maternal psychological stress. Maternal and offspring biological samples are used to assess changes in offspring microbiome, immune system, epigenome and volatilome as potential mechanisms influencing disease susceptibility.
    Population: Randomly selected pregnant women from three health areas of Murcia, a south-eastern Mediterranean region of Spain, who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were invited to participate at the time of the follow-up visit for routine foetal anatomy scan at 19-22 weeks of gestation, at the Maternal-Fetal Medicine Unit of the "Virgen de la Arrixaca" University Clinical Hospital over a 36-month period, from March 2015 to April 2018.
    Design: Prospective, population-based, maternal-child, birth cohort study.
    Methods: Questionnaires on exposures and outcome variables were administered to mothers at 20-24 gestation week; 32-36 gestation week; and delivery. Children were surveyed at birth, 3 and 18 months of age and currently at 5 years. Furthermore, physical examinations were performed; and different measurements and biological samples were obtained at these time points.
    Preliminary results: Among the 1350 women invited to participate, 738 (54%) were finally enrolled in the study and 720 of their children were eligible at birth. The adherence was high with 612 children (83%) attending the 3 months' visit and 532 children (72%) attending the 18 months' visit.
    Conclusion: The NELA cohort will add original and unique knowledge to the developmental origins of asthma.
