Abstract

Probiotic milk has been previously demonstrated to reduce the number of respiratory infections (RI) among children attending day care centres. Thus, this pilot study was aimed to assess the efficacy and the safety of 3 month treatment with Bacillus clausii in the prevention of recurrent respiratory infections (RRI) in children. The results of this pilot study provide the first preliminary evidence that B. clausii may exert a significant and persistent impact on RI in children and is safe and well tolerated.

Immunology incorporates cellular and molecular studies in immunology, as well as clinical research in immunopathology, infectious disease, autoimmunity, and allergy. Host-pathogen interactions in infectious disease, as well as experimental therapeutic applications of immunomodulating agents are also considered. Resources dealing primarily with the biology of microbial, viral, or parasitic pathogens are excluded and are covered in the Microbiology category.

L'importanza dei batteri probiotici nell'immunomodulazione è andata aumentando negli utlimi anni. Lo studio è andato valutare l'importanza del Bacillus clausii nel trattamento di bambini affetti da infezioni ricorrenti alle vie respiratorie. La rivista scelta è specializzata nel trattamento delle problematiche inerenti la terapia clinica e dei possibili rischi ad essa associati
