Mechanisms of action of antiphospholipid antibodies in the antiphospholipid syndrome.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The coexistence of asthma and allergic rhinitis (AR) and its distinct association with obesity have been reported. However, few studies have differentiated the two types of AR, i.e., perennial (PAR) and seasonal AR (SAR), with regard to their associations with asthma and obesity. The aim of this study was to...
