Abstract :
Background : The aim of the study is to evaluate the relationship of childhood asthma with ABO secretor. Objectives: To assess risk factors associated with childhood asthma with special reference to ABO secretor Methods: 150 Cases and 150 Controls were studied. Simple agglutination method was used to find out the secretor status of the subjects. Results: The odds of being a non secretor is almost 4 times higher among child asthmatic patients than normal children. Odds ratio being 3.838 (which is greater than 2.0) proves that being a non secretor may be considered as potential risk factor of childhood asthma. Conclusions: Being a Non Secretor may be considered as a potential risk factor of Childhood Asthma.
