Clinical and immunological evaluation of cat‐allergic asthmatics living with or without a cat

Background Characterising the clinical and immunological impact of daily cat exposure in cat‐allergic subjects with asthma who live with cats (WC) and those who do not (WoC) may provide understanding of the drivers of the allergic response. Methods Clinical and immunological characteristics (skin pr...

Zusammenfassung:Background Characterising the clinical and immunological impact of daily cat exposure in cat‐allergic subjects with asthma who live with cats (WC) and those who do not (WoC) may provide understanding of the drivers of the allergic response. Methods Clinical and immunological characteristics (skin prick test, spirometry, symptom assessments, immunological markers) were compared between asthmatic subjects WC (n = 10) and WoC (n = 9). Results WC subjects had greater use of long‐acting beta agonists (p
