“…From 1991 to 1996, the National Cooperative Inner-City Asthma Study [11] identified environmental factors most closely associated with asthma. Through this study and other investigations with inner-city participants, cockroach and mouse surfaced as major and distinctive drivers of asthma [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21]. Subsequent studies [22,23] isolated additional influential pest exposures, including rats.…”

“…In this scenario, the significant changes in housing construction and insulation over the last three decades have resulted in an increase in exposure to major indoor allergens and a subsequent increase in the frequency of exacerbation of asthma in affected individuals. 10 Other potential contributors to the increase in asthma morbidity among poor and minority children include lack of access to care and poor adherence to treatment regimens. [10][11][12] At the same time, educational, preventive, and therapeutic interventions have been shown to improve asthma self-management skills, 13 reduce morbidity, 14,15 and lower overall healthcare costs.…”

“…10 Other potential contributors to the increase in asthma morbidity among poor and minority children include lack of access to care and poor adherence to treatment regimens. [10][11][12] At the same time, educational, preventive, and therapeutic interventions have been shown to improve asthma self-management skills, 13 reduce morbidity, 14,15 and lower overall healthcare costs. 16 It is therefore of critical importance to identify the asthmatic population, and affected minorities in particular, as early as possible and to implement management strategies.…”
