Comparisons arising from the European Community Respiratory Health Survey (ECRHS) 1991 ± 1994 RK Woods1*, M Abramson1, M Bailey1 and EH Walters2 on behalf of the European Community Respiratory Health Survey (ECRHS) 1Departments of Epidemiology and Preventive Medicine, Monash Medical School, The Alfred Hospital, Prahran, Victoria, Australia; and 2Department of Respiratory Medicine, Monash Medical School, The Alfred Hospital, Prahran, Victoria, Australia Objective: The aim of this study was to report the prevalence, type and reported symptoms associated with food intolerance. Design: A cross-sectional epidemiological study involving 15 countries using standardized methodology. Participants answered a detailed interviewer-administered questionnaire and took part in blood, lung function and skin prick tests to common aeroallergens. Setting: Randomly selected adults who took part in the second phase of the European Community Respiratory Health Survey (ECRHS). Subjects: The subjects were 17 280 adults aged 20 ± 44 y. Results: Twelve percent of respondents reported food allergy=intolerance (range 4.6% in Spain to 19.1% in Australia). Atopic females who had wheezed in the past 12 months, ever had asthma or were currently taking oral asthma medications were signi®cantly more likely to report food allergy=intolerance. Participants from Scandi- navia or Germany were signi®cantly more likely than those from Spain to report food allergy=intolerance. Respondents who reported breathlessness as a food-related symptom were more likely to have wheezed in the past 12 months, to have asthma, use oral asthma medications, be atopic, have bronchial hyperreactivity, be older and reside in Scandinavia.

The dye is caught in and partially penetrates the stratum corneum in this mouse which has decreased expression of the epithelial transcription factor Grainyhead-like 3.

The overlay shows isolates cultured from inflamed mucosal samples (red bars), isolates classified as a putative novel species (black bars), the site of biopsy in the colon (shades of brown), and the intensity of inflammatory gene activation, in relation to the 12 genes investigated (shades of yellow and red), being IL6, IL8, IL12, IL17A, IL17F, IL23, CXCL10, TNF-a, STAT3, EPCAM, TREM1, IFN-y. Each ring around the phylogenetic tree represents one of the genes investigated. Message from the BMedSc(Hons) Course Management Committee Dear BMedSc(Hons) Students, Congratulations on completing your BMedSc(Hons) degree! Well done, it is a very significant achievement. The Course Management Committee would like to thank you for choosing to embark upon a formal year of research in BMedSc(Hons).
