Interactions of genetic variants and prenatal stress in relation to the risk for recurrent respiratory infections in children
Abstract Genetic variants may predispose children to recurrent respiratory infections (RRIs) but studies on genotype-environment interaction are rare. We hypothesized that the risk for RRIs is elevated in children with innate immune gene variants, and that prenatal exposure to maternal psychological...

Abstract Genetic variants may predispose children to recurrent respiratory infections (RRIs) but studies on genotype-environment interaction are rare.
