Influence of maternal asthma on the cause and severity of infant acute respiratory tract infections	2012-02-14		.txt	text/plain	4754	225	47	In this investigation that included mother-infant dyads enrolled in the Tennessee Children's Respiratory Initiative (TCRI), we tested the hypothesis that a familial atopic predisposition was associated with viral cause and increased severity of viral acute respiratory tract infection (ARI) during infancy. In our next set of analyses we examined whether having a mother with asthma (first defined by maternal self-report and then using the atopic asthma and nonatopic asthma classifications) was associated with increased severity of the infant's HRV-or RSV-induced ARI. [5] [6] [7] 12, 22 Because of the known differential risk of early childhood asthma after RSV-and HRV-induced infant infections, we were interested in studying whether a familial predisposition to asthma and allergies was associated with the viral cause of the infant's ARI and the severity of the ARI.	./cache/cord-287063-kheek4lx.txt	./txt/cord-287063-kheek4lx.txt
