Mejias A, Bingcao W, Tandon N, et al. - Researchers examined full-term infants hospitalized with RSV during the first year (Y) of life, to estimate the risk of recurrent wheezing (RW)/asthma during the first 5 years of life in these individuals. For this purpose, they used 2010-16 data from 3 claims databases in USA [Truven MarketScan Commercial Claims and Encounters Database, Truven Health MarketScan Multi-State Medicaid, and Optum Clinformatics Extended Data Mart–Socio-Economic Status]. They computed incidence of RW/asthma, cumulative incidence, adjusted incidence rate ratios, and odds ratios. Findings revealed a significant risk of RW/asthma during childhood in full-term infants with severe RSV infection during the first year of life, spanning various respiratory seasons and a geographically diverse population.
