Abstract
BACKGROUND: )-induced hazards. However, limited evidence is available for respiratory health, particularly in pregnant women and their offspring. OBJECTIVES: and its chemical components with allergic rhinitis (AR) in children and explore effect modification by maternal erythrocyte PUFAs. METHODS: components and examine the modification effects of maternal PUFA levels. RESULTS: and its components. CONCLUSION: on respiratory allergy. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP13524.
