A relationship between infections and allergic airway disease has long been recognized, and many reviews have been written on this topic. However, both clinical and basic science studies published in the last 3 years provide new insights into the relationship between infection and allergic conditions. In this review, we focus on these very recent studies, which address the role of infection in the development, maintenance, and exacerbation of asthma. Bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasitic infections have each been examined and provide a framework for these novel concepts.
感染与过敏性气道疾病之间的关系早已得到认可,并且已有许多相关的综述文章。然而,过去 3 年发表的临床和基础科学研究为感染与过敏之间的关系提供了新的见解。在本次综述中,我们重点关注这些最新的研究,这些研究探讨了感染在哮喘的发生、维持和恶化中的作用。细菌、病毒、真菌和寄生虫感染都已被研究,并为这些新的概念提供了框架。
