Global Asthma Network Phase I, India: Results for allergic rhinitis and eczema in 127,309 children and adults

Abstract

There is a slight declining time trend of AR and eczema in India over 2 decades among children and adolescents. Nearly 10% of Indian adults suffer from AR and eczema. Although genetic factors had the strongest association for AR and eczema among all age groups, certain early-life and environmental exposures need consideration to devise preventative strategies.
