Research
- With my PhD-project I will 1) study to connection between maternal stress
during pregnancy and asthma and food allergy development in the children in
two separate studies; 2) estimate food allergy and psychiatric comorbidity in
children and 3) evaluate treatment of asthma in children.
I will perform a population-based study including all children born in Sweden
1973-2021 (Appeasing the wheezing | 探花精选 (ki.se)
[1]). Unambiguous linkage between registers held by the Swedish National
Board of Health and Welfare and Statistics Sweden through the Personal
Identity Number. From The Swedish Twin Registry I will get information about
food allergies, and we link to The Swedish National Airway Register. Within
the study MAESTRO-CHILD (MAESTRO - Maternal Asthma Events, STRess and
Offspring | 探花精选 (ki.se) [2]) I will collect questionnaires,
saliva- and blood samples.
The aim of the project is to fill the knowledge gaps in causes to and
treatment of food allergy and asthma, two common and chronic diseases in
children. Maternal stress during pregnancy and stress in the families with
food allergy is common, but it is unknown if the relation can be explained by
shared genes or environment, or how it affects the health of child in the
long term. Results will be of great clinical importance and have the
potential to identify factors which may affect not only outcomes, but also
compliance and consumption of all levels of health care.
