Abstract:
To investigate the influence of six exogenous pathogenic factors on asthma in children and to observe the changes of microscopic indexes in cold- and heat-type asthma. Logistic regression analysis was applied to analyze the influence of six exogenous pathogenic factors and the changes of serum level of IgE, eosinophil (EOS) counting, contents of third component of complement (C3) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were observed. The exogenous factors of wind, cold, damp, wind-cold mixture and cold-damp mixture were the risky factors of asthma. Serum levels of IgE and EOS were higher in cold-type asthma and serum contents of C3 and CRP were higher in heat-type asthma (P
