“…(33) However, in the COAST cohort, the number of early life wheezing illnesses, irrespective of etiology, is also found to be important for asthma risk; however, the number of rhinovirus wheezing illnesses is the most robust asthma predictor in children to age 13. (34) Wheezing with RSV in the first 3 years of life was associated with an increased risk of asthma at ages 6, 8, and 11 years, but this was no longer significant at 13 years (OR, 2.8, 2.6, 2.9, and 1.6). (12) Wheezing with RV during the first 3 years of life was associated with a greater increased risk of asthma at age 6, 8, and 11 years that, unlike RSV, persisted out to the 13th year of age (OR, 7.9, 7.5, 6, and 3.4) In a multivariate model adjusted for wheezing with other viruses, RSV wheezing in the first 3 years of life was not associated with an increased asthma risk at any age.…”
