Prevalence of wheeze and asthma and relation to atopy in urban and rural Ethiopia
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the rates of asthma symptoms and atopy in urban populations in Jimma, southwest Ethiopia, at an early stage of economic development with those among the population of remote, rural, subsistence areas, and assessed the potential role of environmental aetiological factors leading to the differences.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: High degrees of parasite infection might prevent asthma symptoms in atopic individuals, and the role of IgE and skin sensitisation in these associations is analysed.

Haile Yemaneberhan,Carsten Flohr,Sarah Lewis,Zegaye Bekele,Eldryd Parry,Hywel C Williams,John Britton,Andrea Venn +7 more
TL;DR: Allergic diseases, including atopic dermatitis (AD), are increasingly becoming a clinical problem in developing countries and the number of cases is increasing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proximity of the home to roads and the risk of wheeze in an Ethiopian population
TL;DR: Findings indicate that living in close proximity to road vehicle traffic is associated with an increased risk of wheeze, but that other environmental factors are also likely to be important.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased risk of allergy associated with the use of kerosene fuel in the home.
TL;DR: It is suggested that domestic combustion of refined fossil fuels increases the risk of allergic sensitization and symptoms, and may have contributed to the increasing prevalence of allergic disease.
