Primary Allergy and Its Impact on the Occurrence of Respiratory Distress in Infants at 12 Months of Age

The number of people with allergies has been steadily increasing over the years. Symptoms in infants, such as bronchiolitis, gastroesophageal reflux, eczema, or atopic dermatitis, can be early warning signs of allergies in childhood. Given the rising prevalence of allergies and the number of children affected by bronchiolitis, it is worth investigating whether the presence of allergies in parents is associated with a higher likelihood of developing bronchiolitis in childhood.

To determine the incidence of respiratory distress in infants with at least one allergic parent compared to infants with no allergic parents at 12 months of age.

Parents will be asked to complete a questionnaire at two time points: at 6 months and at 12 months of age.

The incidence of bronchiolitis during the first year of life is higher among infants with at least one parent who has allergies.

Treatment and study plan

Questionnaire

Other

questionnaire will be emailed when the child is 6 months old and again when the child is 12 months old. These questionnaires include questions about any health issues that have arisen since the last contact, the number and reason for the child's hospitalizations (if applicable), the child's vaccinations, and the child's diet.

Primary outcomes

  1. incidence of respiratory distress at 12 months of age in infants

    Time frame: at 12 months

    incidence of respiratory distress at 12 months of age in infants with at least one allergic parent, compared with those whose parents have no history of allergy, at 12 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. incidence of respiratory distress at 6 months of age in infants

    Time frame: at 6 months

    incidence of respiratory distress at 6 months of age in infants with at least one allergic parent, compared with those whose parents have no history of allergy

  2. incidence of respiratory distress when both parents are allergic

    Time frame: at 6 months

    determine the incidence of respiratory distress when both parents are allergic, according to the type of allergy (respiratory, food, drug-related, or other) compared to a control group (no allergy for both parents)

  3. incidence of respiratory distress when both parents are allergic

    Time frame: at 12 months

    determine the incidence of respiratory distress when both parents are allergic, according to the type of allergy (respiratory, food, drug-related, or other) compared to a control group (no allergy for both parents)

  4. incidence of respiratory distress requiring hospitalization when only one parent is allergic)

    Time frame: at 6 months

    incidence of respiratory distress requiring hospitalization when only one parent is allergic, according to the type of allergy (respiratory, food, drug-related, or other) compared to a control group (no allergy for both parents)

  5. incidence of respiratory distress requiring hospitalization when only one parent is allergic)

    Time frame: at 12 months

    incidence of respiratory distress requiring hospitalization when only one parent is allergic, according to the type of allergy (respiratory, food, drug-related, or other) compared to a control group (no allergy for both parents)

  6. incidence of respiratory distress when both parents are allergic, according to the type of allergy

    Time frame: at 6 months

    incidence of respiratory distress when both parents are allergic, according to the type of allergy (respiratory, food, drug-related, or other) compared to a control group (no allergy for both parents)

  7. incidence of respiratory distress when both parents are allergic, according to the type of allergy

    Time frame: at 12 months

    incidence of respiratory distress when both parents are allergic, according to the type of allergy (respiratory, food, drug-related, or other) compared to a control group (no allergy for both parents)

  8. incidence of respiratory distress requiring hospitalization when both parents are allergic

    Time frame: at 6 months

    incidence of respiratory distress requiring hospitalization when both parents are allergic, according to the type of allergy (respiratory, food, drug-related, or other) compared to a control group (no allergy for both parents)

  9. incidence of respiratory distress requiring hospitalization when both parents are allergic

    Time frame: at 12 months

    incidence of respiratory distress requiring hospitalization when both parents are allergic, according to the type of allergy (respiratory, food, drug-related, or other) compared to a control group (no allergy for both parents)

  10. incidence of atopic manifestations

    Time frame: at 12 months

    incidence of atopic manifestations, depending on the presence or absence of parental allergies compared to a control group (no allergy for both parents)

  11. correlation between changes in infant formula

    Time frame: at 6 months

    correlation between changes in infant formula (e.g., thickened formulas or specialized formulas such as Allernova) in cases of suspected cow's milk protein allergy or gastroesophageal reflux, and the presence of parental allergies

  12. correlation between changes in infant formula

    Time frame: at 12 months

    correlation between changes in infant formula (e.g., thickened formulas or specialized formulas such as Allernova) in cases of suspected cow's milk protein allergy or gastroesophageal reflux, and the presence of parental allergies

  13. correlation between variations in immediate postnatal parameters

    Time frame: at 6 months

    correlation between variations in immediate postnatal parameters (Apgar score, jaundice, immediate respiratory distress, neonatal infection, birth weight loss, etc.) and the allergic status of at least one parent.
