  2. 21. Genetic association studies in allergic rhinitis

    Author : Daniel Carlberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a global health problem that causes major disability worldwide. Nasal obstruction, secretion and itching are characterizing features of the disease. The development and severity of AR are determined by a complex interaction between environmental and genetic factors and the heritability for AR has been estimated to be high. READ MORE
