Summary

The allergic respiratory diseases such as asthma or allergic rhinitis are the main chronic diseases in children. The airway inflammation plays an important role in their pathophysiology. Several epidemiological studies show that environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) exacerbates the symptoms of asthma and allergies.

The aim of this study is to assess the impact of environmental tobacco smoke on the measurement of exhaled nitric oxide (eNO) and biomarkers of nasal inflammation in atopic asthmatic children.
