Pertussis infection has been suspected to be a potential causal factor in the
development of atopic disease because of the effect of pertussis immunization on
specific IgE antibodies. Although several studies found a positive association
between pertussis infection and atopic disorders, this relationship has not yet
been studied in a population stratified by vaccination status. To assess the
association between pertussis infection and atopic disorders in pertussis-unvaccinated
children and in pertussis-vaccinated children. Using data from a previously
conducted study on the relationship between the diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis-(inactivated)
poliomyelitis vaccination in the first year of life and atopic disorders, the
study population of 1872 8-12 yr old was divided into children pertussis-unvaccinated
and children pertussis-vaccinated in the first year of life. Within each group,
the association between pertussis infection and atopic disorders (both as
reported by the parents) was assessed. In the unvaccinated group, there were no
significant associations between pertussis infection and atopic disorders. In
the vaccinated group, all associations between pertussis infection and atopic
disorders were positive, the associations with asthma [odds ratio (OR) = 2.24,
95% confidence interval (CI(95%)): 1.36-3.70], hay fever (OR = 2.35, CI(95%):
1.46-3.77) and food allergy (OR = 2.68, CI(95%): 1.48-4.85) being significant.
There was a positive association between pertussis infection and atopic
disorders in the pertussis vaccinated group only. From the present study, it
cannot be concluded whether this association is causal or due to reverse
causation.
