title: [A particular type of self management of asthma in childhood. The Neapolis project].
abstract: The goal of this study was the observations of the comportment of 5 groups of asthmatic children, followed either with weekly ambulatory control of functional respiratory capacity or with daily control of PEF at home by Asses Peak Flow. The five groups were formed: group A (10 allergic subjects either to aeroallergens or to foods, with exclusion of food allergens from diet); group 1B (similar group, which executed the food allergen's exclusion with weekly reintroduction of one food allergen with protection of DSCG); group 1C (allergic children either to aeroallergens or to food, who non executed the withdrawal of food allergens from diet: Control group); 2A group (allergic children only to aeroallergens, which executed only the acarus' removal from ambient); 2B group (allergic only to foods, which executed the removal of food allergens from diet). The control's results showed near to 0, for pathology, the group 2B, then the group 1A, then 2A and 1B; the 1C group showed heavy asthmatic condition and employed beta 2-drugs and cortisonics.
