Role of nonallergic hypersensitivity reactions in children with chronic urticaria.

abstract：BACKGROUND:We hypothesized that, in south-west Poland, a 'rural' protective effect on atopy and respiratory allergies would be most pronounced among children but that at all ages would be stronger among those with a rural background. METHODS:A cross-sectional survey of the inhabitants (age >5 years, n = 1657) of Sobot...
