Abstract
Background. Primary prevention of allergic diseases in children is specified by the increase of allergic diseases prevalence in a population and may be mediated through the special milk formulas. The study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of allergic symptoms in families of Moscow newborns and to evaluate the hypothetic demand in a special milk formula dietary supplement. Methods. 18 visits to the Postnatal Department of Moscow No.1 Maternity Hospital were carried out. All women delivered in the preceding 48 hours were questioned on each visit. Information on relatives of a newborns family and on allergic manifestations in them has been obtained from the mothers. Information on 3534 relatives of 393 newborns was collected. Results. Moscow newborns-2011 cohort have allergy manifestations in one close relative within 41,7% families, in two or more relatives within 14,5% families. In case of all relatives studied the respective prevalence is 59% and 25,1%. Conclusion.
