Asthma symptoms were collected using a questionnaire that was translated and adapted from the International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood, phase III. The diagnosis of asthma was determined based on reports of wheezing in the previous 12 months. The Brazilian Food Insecurity Scale was used to identify food insecurity. We also obtained demographic, socio-economic and anthropometric information for each participant. We used multivariate logistic regression analyses to assess the associations of interest.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S1368980012005551_abs5\" sec-type=\"results\"><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Of the children surveyed, 10\u00b74 % had a history of wheezing and 64\u00b75 % had some degree of food and nutrition insecurity.

needed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1017\/s1368980012005551","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,1,21]],"date-time":"2013-01-21T11:57:23Z","timestamp":1358769443000},"page":"14-19","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":20,"title":["Food
