First episode depression during the perinatal period is associated with atopic diseases and persistently increased eosinophil and basophil levels
The results imply that immune function may play a relevant role in the risk of a fePND. If confirmed and detailed, these findings could serve as the basis for designing preliminary prevention strategies by observing eosinophil and basophil levels as well as symptoms of atopic diseases before/during pregnancy.
