Effects of <i>Helicobacter pylori</i>, geohelminth infection and selected commensal bacteria on the risk of allergic disease and sensitization in 3‐year‐old Ethiopian children

Abstract

Among young children in a developing country, we found evidence to support the hypothesis of a protective effect of H. pylori infection on the risk of allergic disease. Further investigation of the mechanism of this effect is therefore of potential therapeutic and preventive value.
