Associations of sleep characteristics with atopic disease: a cross-sectional study among Chinese adolescents
Abstract Background Adolescence, as a transition between childhood and adulthood, is a critical stage for the long-term control of atopic diseases. We aim to determine if sleep characteristics are involved in the increased risk of atopic disease among adolescents. Methods Adopting the stratified clu...
