Generational shifts in atopic disease among immigrant families to North America from Southern India
Respondents exhibited increased prevalence of AR and FA after migration. North America-born children showed elevated risk for asthma, AR, and FA compared to respondents and children who migrated after birth. Research into lost protective factors and new risk factors, including environmental and dietary changes, is needed to decrease the impact on future generations.
