  2. Piama: part of the Allergenic study • A nation wide Dutch collaborative study on atopy development in three birth cohorts • Piama • Prevask • KOALA

  3. The ALLERGENIC study PREVASC KOALA PIAMA Bottema et al, Eur Respir J 2008; 32: 593–602

  7. PIAMA study 1)  general overview2)  what are the strengths3)  what resources do you have4)  what areas would you be interested in collaborating on?

  8. PIAMA study - overview • a placebo controlled intervention study in which the effect of mite impermeable mattress covers was studied • a natural history study • Recruitment took place in 1996-1997 • Total n = 4,146

  9. Measurements in Piama 0 1 jr 2 jr 4 jr 6 jr 8 jr Cord blood IgE • House visit: • Exposure • LPS • Der P1 • Eczema • Clinic visit: • Total IgE • Sp IgE • FEV1 • BHR • NO • Clinic visit: • Total IgE • Sp IgE • FEV1 • BHR • NO

  10. PIAMA study - age 4 • All 1,327 children of allergic mothers • a random sample of 663 children of non-allergic mothers • Medical examination: 1,288 children • DNA was collected from 1,046 of these children

  11. PIAMA study: strenghts • Excellent follow up, now untill age 11 • Homogeneous Dutch population • Potential to pool data with 2 other Dutch birth cohorts • Environmental data: LPS, Der P1 in subset • Air pollution – based on address information

  12. CD14 -550, dog and IgE Dog Age (years) Bottema et al, Eur Respir J 2008; 32: 593–602

  13. PIAMA study: resources • DNA is now available of over 2,000 children • GWAS data in n = 400 (GABRIEL) • DNA: genomic / amplified DNA • Follow up investigations ongoing

  14. PIAMA study: collaboration • Field of interests: • Phenotype: • Bronchial hyperresponsiveness / lung function / NO • Early wheezing phenotypes • G x E • Passive smoking, intervention study • Air pollution • Pooling of data: LPS, Der P1 • Open towards collaborations
