IGHE and asthma: Models adjusted for age, gender and locality show that asthma was significantly less likely among those with Ascaris eggs (aOR = 0.43, 95% CI: 0.24–0.99, p = .048) and those with Trichuris eggs (aOR = 0.36, 95% CI: 0.15–0.87, p = .024) but more likely among those with high Ascaris IgE (aOR = 2.20, 95% CI: 0.66–3.75, p = .047).
