Incidence and natural history of hen's egg allergy in the first 2 years of life-the EuroPrevall birth cohort study.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The measurement of peak nasal inspiratory flow (PNIF) provides a simple, cheap, fast and readily available tool for determining the extent of nasal airway patency. However, there are questions regarding its repeatability when used to assess the degree of nasal obstruction in large populations. Therefore, thi...
