Background The role of repeated infection in early life in thedevelopment of childhood atopy is still controversy. Fever in thefirst year of life which is frequently associated with infections mightdecrease atopy.Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the associationbetween fever in the first year of life and atopy in children.Methods This was an observational clinical epidemiology studyperformed at Puskesmas Garuda, Padasuka, and Babakan Sari,Bandung, from January to March 2006. From 749 children, werandomly chose 150 subjects each from group with and withoutfamily history of atopic disease. Skin prick test and measurementof total serum immunoglobulin (Ig) E were performed on eachchildren. Atopy was defined as the skin prick test result waspositive to >1 allergen. The number of fever episodes in the firstyear of life was based on parents report. The relationship betweenfever and atopy was analyzed using Mantel Haenszel.Results From 284 subjects, atopy was found in 28.2% of children,of which 32.4% with and 23.9% without a family history of atopicdisease. Generally there was no significant association betweenfever and atopy. There was only decreased odds ratio withincreased fever episodes and trend analysis showed this decreasewas significant (P=0.01). The significant association betweenfever and atopy were found only in group without family historyof atopic disease (P=0.03, OR=0.43, CI 95% 0.18;1.01).Conclusion There is a relationship between fever and atopy inchildren without family history of atopic disease.

Background Atopic diseases (AD) are the most common chronicdiseases in childhood, and their incidence has a tendency to increaserecently. Tendency to have atopy could be triggered by many factorsoriginated in early life, including time of breastfeeding cessation.Objective To determine the association between exclusive andduration of breastfeeding and atopy in children with or withoutfamily history of atopic disease.Methods This was an observational clinical epidemiology studyperformed at Babakansari, Padasuka, Garuda Primary Health CareCenter in Bandung from January to March 2006. One hundredfifty of 749 children were randomized from group with and withoutfamily history of AD. They underwent skin prick tests and totalserum IgE level analysis. Atopy was defined as a positive skinprick test to any of the eight allergens tested. History of exclusiveand duration of breastfeeding was obtained from their parents.Significance tests for contingency tables were on the basis of x 2test for association odds ratio with 95% confidence interval.Results Atopy was found in 28.2% of children, of whom 32.4% withand 23.9% without family history of AD. Children exclusivelybreastfed exhibited a reduced risk of atopy (5.8% v 35.3%, OR=0.11,95%CI= 0.03;0.34, P<0.001). The difference of atopy was stronglysignificant between children who had exclusive breastfeeding andthose without exclusive breastfeeding whether or not the subjectshad family history of AD (P<0.001). There was a highly significantrisk reduction for atopy related to prolonged breastfeeding (=6months) (OR=0.37, 95%CI = 0.19 to 0.72, P=0.001). Thedifference of atopy was strongly significant between children whohad prolonged breastfeeding and short breastfeeding duration whetheror not the subjects had family history of AD (P<0.001)Conclusions Exclusive and prolonged breastfeeding decrease atopyin children with as well as without family history of AD.

Background Atopic diseases are determined by the interactionbetween genetic and environmental factors. The possible effectsof immunization, as one of environmental factors, on atopy remaina matter of controversy.Objective We conducted an observational clinical epidemiologyto find out the protective effect of high vaccination coverage toatopy in children.Methods During January through March 2006, 150 of749 childrenat Garuda, Padasuka, and Babakan Sari Primary Health Care inBandung were randomized from group with and without familyhistory of atopic disease. Atopy derived from skin prick test andtotal serum lgE was evaluated. Atopy was defined as a positiveskin test to any of the eight allergens tested. The immunizationswere recorded from Kartu Menuju Sehat (KMS). Statistical analysesincluded Chi square to compare prevalence, independent T-testand Mann-Whitney to compare mean.Results Atopy was found in 28.2% of284 subjects, of which 32.4%with and 23.9% without a family history of atopic disease. Themedian of total serum lgE level was higher in children with familyhistory of atopic disease and in atopy children. Children weregrouped according to total dose of basic immunizations (0-17 and2: 18) based on Program Pengembangan Imunisasi (PPI). There wasnonsignificant association between total doses of immunizationand atopy. Even though no statistically significant, the cumulativeimmunization doses were inversely related to the median of totalserum IgE level.Conclusions The immunization coverage has not decreased atopyrisk.
