    CD64 (Fcgamma receptor I) cell surface expression on maturing neutrophils from preterm and term newborn infants.2005In: Acta Paediatrica, ISSN 0803-5253, E-ISSN 1651-2227, Vol. 94, no 3, p. 295-302Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    BACKGROUND: The expression of CD64 (FcgammaRI) is increased from an almost negligible to a marked level on neutrophils in patients with bacterial infections. CD64 expression on neutrophils might therefore be a potential candidate for the diagnosis of bacterial infections in infants.

    AIM: This study was performed to monitor changes of neutrophil expression of CD64 during the postpartum period to further evaluate the usefulness of this analysis. The possible influence on the expression of this receptor by other factors was also investigated, including respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) and preterm rupture of the membranes (PROM).

    METHODS: Cell surface expression of CD64 on neutrophils from preterm and term newborn infants and healthy adults was analysed by flow cytometry. The expression of the other Fcgamma receptors, CD32 and CD16, and the complement receptors CD11b/CD18 and CD35 was also analysed for comparison.

    RESULTS: Neutrophils from preterm newborn infants showed a moderately increased level of CD64 expression that, during their first month of life, was reduced to the level observed on neutrophils from term newborn infants and adults. In contrast, the level of neutrophil expression of CD32 and CD16 was significantly lower in preterm than term newborn infants and adults. Neutrophils from all groups indicated similar levels of CD11b expression, but the expression on neutrophils from newborn infants increased after birth.

    CONCLUSION: Our results showed that neutrophil expression of CD64 is moderately increased in preterm newborn infants at birth. It seems not to be influenced by RDS, PROM or other factors related to preterm birth but by bacterial infection.

    Risk factors associated with allergic and non-allergic asthma in adolescents2007In: Clinical Respiratory Journal, ISSN 1752-6981, E-ISSN 1752-699X, Vol. 1, no 1, p. 16-22Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Introduction: Risk factors for asthma have been investigated in a large number of studies in adults and children, with little progress in the primary and secondary prevention of asthma. The aim of this investigation was to investigate risk factors associated with allergic and non-allergic asthma in adolescents. Methods: In this study, 959 schoolchildren (13-14 years old) answered a questionnaire and performed exhaled nitric oxide ( NO) measurements. All children (n = 238) with reported asthma, asthma-related symptoms and/or increased NO levels were invited to a clinical follow-up which included a physician evaluation and skin-prick testing. Results: Asthma was diagnosed in 96 adolescents, whereof half had allergic and half non-allergic asthma. Children with both allergic and non-allergic asthma had a significantly higher body mass index (BMI) (20.8 and 20.7 vs. 19.8 kg/m(2)) (p < , 0.05) and a higher prevalence of parental asthma (30% and 32% vs. 16%) (p < , 0.05). Early-life infection (otitis and croup) [adjusted odds ratio ( OR) (95% confidence interval (CI)): 1.99(1.02-3.88) and 2.80 (1.44-5.42), respectively], pets during the first year of life [2.17 (1.16-4.04)], window pane condensation [2.45 (1.11-5.40)] and unsatisfactory school cleaning [(2.50 (1.28-4.89)] was associated with non-allergic but not with allergic asthma. Conclusion: This study indicates the importance of distinguishing between subtypes of asthma when assessing the effect of different risk factors. While the risk of both allergic and non-allergic asthma increased with increasing BMI, associations between early-life and current environmental exposure were primarily found in relation to non-allergic asthma.
