Environmental triggers of hospital admissions for school-age children with asthma in two British cities.

Emerg Med J. 2012 Oct;29(10):844-5

Authors: Julious SA, Jain R, Mason S

Research has reported seasonal peaks in asthma in school age asthmatic children.

However, there were no consistent patterns across the two cities with no clear evidence that hospital admissions could be predicted from environmental data.
