PREVALENCE AND SENSITIZATION OF ATOPIC ALLERGY AND COELIAC DISEASE IN THE NORTHERN SWEDEN POPULATION HEALTH STUDY

Prevalence and sensitization of atopic allergy and coeliac disease in the Northern Sweden Population Health Study

Background.Atopic allergy is effected by a number of environmental exposures, such as dry air and time spent outdoors, but there are few estimates of the prevalence in populations from sub-arctic areas.Objective.To determine the prevalence and severity of symptoms of food, inhalation and skin-related allergens and coeliac disease (CD) in the sub-ar
