Abstract

The rise in asthma and allergic disease in recent decades, with accompanying morbidity and healthcare costs, has placed these conditions on the forefront of public health challenges. Allergic disease manifests itself shortly after birth, suggesting that disease development may commence already during fetal life. The early origins of these conditions and the concomitant changes in dietary habits have led to the formulation of several hypotheses relating dietary intake during pregnancy to deviant developmental adaptations in the fetal immune system and lung growth. These hypotheses are further supported by the demonstrated involvement of many nutrients, including fatty acids, antioxidants, and food allergens, in immune system function and maturation. Understanding the potential in utero influence of these nutrients on child allergic disease risk will provide a unique window of opportunity for early prevention by guiding women and their children to better health.

Using phenotype data from a multicenter study (n=938) and a (data-driven) latent class analysis, this study extracted and identified five wheeze classes: ‘no/infrequent’, ‘transient’, ‘intermediate’, ‘late-onset’, and ‘persistent’ wheeze. These classes replicated three phenotypes previously identified by Martinez et al [6] and they compared well to clinical phenotypes, except for episodic wheeze. The study also showed that associations of the wheeze classes and clinical phenotypes with environmental and genetic determinants, atopic sensitization, lung function, and medication use varied substantially.PubMed

This study nicely demonstrated that asthma development could commence in early life. In a birth cohort of 411 children, the authors found that children who had reduced airflow and increased bronchial responsiveness as neonates were more likely to suffer from asthma at age 7, and that that the neonatal airflow deficit (FEF50 z score = -0.34) increased over time to -0.82, while it remained stable in children who did not develop asthma.

Increased intake of oily fish in pregnancy: effects on neonatal immune responses and on clinical outcomes in infants at 6 mo. Am J Clin Nutr. 2012;95(2):395–404. A small (n=123) but relevant randomized clinical trial of fatty fish intake in pregnancy showed decreased levels of IL-2, -IL-4, IL-5, and IL-10 in the intervention group compared to a control of habitual diet. While no difference in IgE, atopic dermatitis, and skin-prick test positivity was noted, the trial demonstrated that it is feasible to radomize pregnant women to whole foods with good compliance, and may pave the way for larger trials. Understanding the immune response to whole foods would be of special relevance to public health recommendations, and long-term outcomes of this trial remain of interest.

The largest study to date (n=28,936) on fish intake in pregnancy and asthma and allergic rhinitis in childhood. This study found that no fish intake compared to eating fish ≥ 2–3 times/week increased the odds of asthma in early pregnancy (most likely a mixed outcome of transient and persistent wheeze) and asthma by hospitalization and medication prescription records during the first 7 years of life. The study highlights the importance of eating any fish during pregnancy, as the direct associations did not extend to monthly versus weekly fish eating.

This detailed study of 865 mother-child pairs examined maternal levels of n-3 and n-6 PUFAs during pregnancy in relation to wheeze patterns, atopy, airway inflammation, and lung function during the first 6 years of life. The study found both n-3 and n-6 PUFAs to be protective of allergic conditions. Interestingly, the study also implicated the ratio between the substrates (ALA and LA) and the desaturated products in atopy and wheeze development, a finding that awaits replication in other studies.

J Allergy Clin Immunol. 2011;128(5):1093–9–e1-5. This study measured cord plasma levels of 25(OH)D in 482 mothers and offspring IgE levels at 1, 2, and 5 years of age. The results were very interesting and the first to highlight a potential U-shaped relationship between vitamin D and offspring allergic disease. While this was shown in a relatively small cohort, these findings have now been supported by the authors’ recent studies in Danish populations, some of which are on their way to publication.

Goldring ST, Griffiths CJ, Martineau AR, Robinson S, Yu C, Poulton S. Prenatal vitamin d supplementation and child respiratory health: a randomised controlled trial. PLoS One. 2013;8(6):e66627. The study is the first randomized controlled trial with 180 UK pregnant women of mixed ethnic backgrounds with vitamin D supplementation during pregnancy on allergic disease outcomes in the offspring at age three years. Vitamin D was given as 800 IU ergocalciferol daily, a single stat oral bolus of 200,000 IU cholecalciferol, or no treatment from gestational week 27 until delivery. Results from clinical trials have long been awaited, but results from this trial did not show any effect of vitamin D supplementation on wheeze, eczema, atopy, or allergic rhinitis. More and larger trials are on their way.

The most extensive and detailed study on folate in terms of exposure and outcome assesment, examining folic acid supplementation from conception throughout pregnancy in addition to eythrocyte folate levels in relation to allergic disease outcomes in both early and later childhood. This was an overall null study, though an inverse association was suggested for erythrocyte folate and asthma at 6-7 years. Given the number of comparisons made, we cannot rule out a chance finding.

Reizdarmsyndrom: Diäten wirksamer als Medikamente

29.04.2024 Reizdarmsyndrom Nachrichten

Bei Reizdarmsyndrom scheinen Diäten, wie etwa die FODMAP-arme oder die kohlenhydratreduzierte Ernährung, effektiver als eine medikamentöse Therapie zu sein. Das hat eine Studie aus Schweden ergeben, die die drei Therapieoptionen im direkten Vergleich analysierte.
