-Revealed in the latest study conducted in the UK
New Delhi (EMS). In a study led by the University of Bristol, UK, it has been revealed that diseases caused by allergies have nothing to do with mental health. According to the latest report, it has been claimed in this research that diseases caused by allergies such as asthma, shingles (itching) and high fever have nothing to do with mental health. This experiment was done on a large sample of about 12 thousand to 3.5 lakh people.
Researchers from Bristol Medical School’s Population Health Science and Psychological Science wanted to find out whether allergic diseases cause anxiety, depression, mental illnesses such as schizophrenia, or whether these diseases cause allergic diseases? The researchers identified an observational relationship between allergic diseases and symptoms of mental illness. But the research team did not find that point in its analysis. According to this research, there is little evidence found between the onset of allergic disease and mental health to suggest that the observational relationship was due to confounding or other forms of bias. Intervention is unlikely to improve mental health outcomes. Similarly, preventing the onset of mental health symptoms will not reduce the risk of allergic disease. However, further research is needed to examine whether interventions have any effect on mental health when allergic disease progresses after onset. Dr Ashley Budu-Aggre, lead author of the research and senior research associate at Bristol Medical School, said: “Common mental health disorders such as anxiety and depression are the largest contributors to the global burden of common mental health disorders and allergies. The spread of the diseases caused has been increasing for some time.
Distinguishing the nature of the relationship between allergic diseases and mental health from this research helps to answer an important health question, which is that the onset of allergic disease does not lead to the onset of mental health symptoms, similar to mental health. The onset of symptoms does not lead to the onset of allergic disease.” Let us tell you that in the first study, there was an observational relationship between mental health and diseases associated with common allergies. But so far the relationship between its causal factors has not been established.
