Abbreviation: IgE. immunoglobulin E.
NOTE. Model 1 was adjusted for age. sex. and the time interval between study visits, in addition to all covariates listed in the column. Model 2 was also adjusted for the log10 total IgE level at baseline.
Compared with a control group including subjects who had normal weight at both visits.
