“…Several studies investigated the association between allergic diseases and specific cancers. Asthma, hay fever, and atopy have been associated with the risk of several specific cancers, such as pancreatic cancer, lymphomas, brain tumors, breast cancer and leukemia, although inconsistently 10 14 15 46 47 . Allergic diseases could theoretically both prevent and induce the development of several specific cancers.…”

“…Children born by caesarean deliverycausing a deviant immune-maturation -developed more asthma and ALL than children delivered via the vaginal route (Sevelsted, Stokholm, Bønnelykke, & Bisgaard, 2015). A meta-analysis found a significant pooled odds-ratio of ALL in atopy (0.69 ,95% CI 0.54 -0.89) (Linabery, Jurek, Duval, & Ross, 2010), while a more current metaanalysis updated a negative trend between ALL and asthma by Linabery et al (OR 0.79,) to a non-significant odds-ratio (P = 0.45) (Zhou & Yang, 2015). These findings suggest that a subset of allergic diseases and ALL have a protective effect on each other.…”

“…In this case study, we selected the disease topic of asthma and lymphoma. There have been a few studies discussing potential association between asthma and lymphoma, implying that the common cause and progression of the two diseases relates to some common imbalance of the immune system [ 50 , 51 ]. Our assembled disease-gene association network of Topic 94 suggested that these two diseases are indeed associated with a large number of common diseases and genes (i.e., 180 diseases and 279 genes) through 10,895 associations.…”
