Abstract
synopsisIn a controlled population study 111 families of children with asthma and wheezy bronchitis were screened. The mothers of asthmatics suffered more depressive illness than controls. This correlates with the severity of the child's asthma. There was no difference in immunological status between depressive and non-depressive mothers of asthmatics.
