Allergies in Children
70%
Every child care centre usually has at least one child who suffers from allergies. As a result, it is important for caregivers to be aware of children's allergies, know how to avoid substances that trigger allergies and be prepared to manage reactions.
A very nice overview of allergies, and includes suggestions that can be implemented in any child care centre.

A very detailed overview of the physiology of allergy, with a link to the "The Grand Unified Field Theory" which may not necessarily be supported by orthodox medicine.

Asthma Transmitted Through Bone Marrow Transplantation
0%
Researchers say asthma can be transmitted from donor to recipient following bone marrow transplantation and that donors with asthma should be excluded from donating bone marrow to non-asthmatic recipients.

Considerations in asthma and concomitant upper airway symptoms
0%
Bronchial asthma has been defined as an inflammatory disorder of the airways. However upper airways are often forgotten either by the clinicians when they care asthmatics or the designers of clinical trials. Nose and sinus are a part of the airways and their role appear to be important in the pathophysiology of asthma; the treatment of rhinitis and sinusitis has to be included in the recommendations.
Not very detailed.

Delayed Hypersensitivity
66%
Delayed patterns of food allergy are not obvious and generally go unrecognized. Symptom onset is delayed many hours after eating foods and chronic disease is often the result.

Delayed Patterns
0%
Non IgE mechanisms are responsible for delyaed patterns of food allergy that are prevalent and produce symptom complexes both generally and in target organs such as the gastrointestinal tract.

Eosinophils - mischief-makers in asthma
0%
Eosinophils are a type of white blood cell (corpuscle) and take up the red dye eosin when blood is examined under a microscope by the commonest method. They accumulate wherever allergic reactions like those in asthma take place. Their natural role is to defend us against parasites. In fact allergies such as asthma are probably a malfunction of our protective mechanism against parasites.
An excellent look at these cells involved in allergy.
