Post-natal depression and increased risk of child asthma

 
University of Manitoba, Canada Kozyrskyj and other reports, independent of the well-known asthma risk factors (men, mothers suffering from asthma, live in cities, etc.), the child if the mother after the birth of the long-term depression or anxiety, they will be (7 years old) asthma increased risk. [AmJRespirCritCareMed2008,177 (2):142]

There is evidence that depression or anxiety after childbirth the mother in the pathogenesis of asthma in children play an important role, but the evidence came from the findings of high-risk groups.Kozyrskyj etc. have been a high-risk groups for non-birth cohort study, included in Manitoba, Canada of all babies born in 1995 (13907) to assess the mother's depression or anxiety after childbirth and children 7 years old when the relationship between asthma. Mother depression or anxiety, depression or anxiety, according to medical records and the corresponding set of prescriptions, asthma according to asthma, the medical records and determined the corresponding prescription.

The results showed that, from birth up to 7-year-old mother's depression or anxiety continue to place children with asthma in future, an independent risk factor [odds ratio (OR) 1.25]. Mother only in the first year after birth occurred depression or anxiety, and the future relationship between asthma in children has not been proven. Interestingly, the high-income families, the mother continued to depression or anxiety is more low-income families increased risk of asthma in children (OR 1.44).

The researchers introduced the traditional risk factors for asthma and can not fully explain the occurrence of asthma, but after birth the mother continued to depression or anxiety to the school-age children has an important role in the pathogenesis of asthma, the mechanism is still unclear. Mother of depression occurred more than love to smoke, and do not like breastfeeding, which are related to the occurrence of asthma with the children.
