Abstract

In their paper entitled ‘Asthma in pregnancy- from immunology to clinical management’ Lilia Tamási et al. (pag. 259-263) discuss the effect of asthma on pregnancy and vice versa. As it is generally accepted, asthma improves during pregnancy in about one- third, remains the same in another one-third, and worsens in one-third of pregnant women.
