Dust mite allergic asthma

Dust mites are important allergens that induce bronchial asthma. A large number of studies in recent years have confirmed that dust mites are closely related to bronchial asthma. A 13-year follow-up survey of asthma children in New Zealand confirmed that dust mites, as an independent risk sensitizer, have seriously affected the incidence of asthma. Three investigations in the United States have also confirmed that dust mites, cat hair, and cockroaches are important inducers of bronchial asthma. Hundreds of studies have confirmed that dust mites are closely related to bronchial asthma attacks. Therefore, in recent years, some people have proposed the diagnostic name and concept of dust mite allergic asthma. Since 1987, several international seminars on the relationship between dust mite allergies and bronchial asthma have been held, and a large number of basic and clinical research advances on dust mite allergic asthma have been reported, providing a lot of theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of the disease And specific control measures.
