CONCLUSION: A high cumulative incidence of wheezing in the first 6 months of life was found in our population, in comparison with data reported in other cohort studies. Estimated risk factors were generally in accordance with those described by other authors. Having siblings and season of birth between July and September were the most important risk factors, reflecting the role of viral infections in the pathogenesis of wheezing in early childhood.
