The subject-specific association of allergy at the ages of 9 and 18 months, 3 and 5 years with self-reported allergy, and allergy (a) and asthma (b) at the ages of 12, 15 and 18 years. In the subject-specific model, analysis takes into account the correlation structure of the repeated measurements, that is, whether a same child who has allergy at 9 months, 18 months, 3 and 5 years, has allergy (a) or asthma (b) at the ages 12,15, and 18 years. The predictive variable was divided into two categories, diagnosed allergy or no allergy at ages of 9 and 18 months, 3 and 5 years. The analysis is based on logistic regression with random intercept, and the results are presented as Odds Ratios (OR) with 95% Confidence Intervals.
