Background. Cross-sectional studies suggested that allergy prevalence in childhood is higher in boys compared to girls, but it remains unclear if this inequality changes after puberty. The aim of the present study was to examine the sex-specific prevalence of asthma and rhinitis as single and as multimorbid diseases before and after puberty-onset in data from ongoing European birth cohorts.

The outcomes current rhinitis, current asthma and current respiratory allergic multimorbidity (i.e. concurrent asthma and rhinitis) were assessed at multiple time points from birth up to the age...
