Being sensitized to both shrimp and mites was independently associated with having angioedema, wheeze, and chronic airflow limitation, after adjusting for age, sex, and birch and cat sensitization. Being sensitized to shrimp or mite alone was associated with having urticaria (Table 2). There was also an independent association between lower FEV1 (% of predicted) and sensitization to both shrimp and mites: -3.5 (-6.5, -0.5) % of predicted units.
