| Research Abstract |
Bacterial and virus infection might play a role in the pathology of asthma, but its role in infantile asthma remains obscure. We evaluated whether or not asthma is associated with this type of infection. Wheezing infants progressed to asthma more frequently after infection with than those who were not infected. These findings suggested that the infection triggers asthma in wheezy infants.
