Preface
The idea for this textbook arose during the implementation of our interdisciplinary
allergy/sleep disorders clinic at the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of
Chicago. In this clinic, we identify many children with allergic diseases, such as
allergic rhinitis, asthma, atopic dermatitis, and other immunologically related prob-
lems that also have principal sleep-related complaints. In managing both allergic
and sleep disorders, we gained insight into the impact these disciplines have upon
each other. Comprehensive management requires attention to the underlying aller-
gic disorder as well as identification and management of sleep-related problems. On
the other hand, many children presenting to the Pediatric Sleep Medicine Center at
Lurie Children’s Hospital have comorbid allergic symptomatology. Treatment only
of the sleep-related difficulties does not result in optimal control of symptoms. Only
after treatment of both the sleep-related difficulties and allergic pathology can treat-
ment be personalized and optimized. This does not imply broad allergy testing in
sleep patients but rather a symptom-directed approach.
In diagnosing and managing both sleep and allergic disorders, the practitioner
must recognize important relationships. First, primary sleep-related abnormalities
may affect daytime functioning caused by pathologic processes during sleep or may
exacerbate existing primary medical disorders. Through diagnosis and treatment of
sleep-related abnormalities, adverse health outcomes might be avoided or treatment
of the primary medical problem more effective. Second, sleep-related pathology can
exist concomitantly with an allergic disorder. This requires therapeutic approaches
to comorbid conditions in order to obtain an optimal outcome. Finally, the presence
of sleep-related abnormalities occurring as a result of allergic disorders not only
impacts the health and well-being of the affected individual but can have more
widespread effects on the entire family, particularly in pediatrics. A child’s noctur-
nal sleep disruption can cause sleeplessness, daytime fatigue, and significant diurnal
performance difficulties.
Although our training is in pediatrics, authors of this book are experts in pediat-
ric and adult disease and provide an overview of disease assessment and treatment
approaches throughout the life-span. Chapter authors reflect the multidisciplinary
practitioners required to assess and treat allergy and sleep disorders – allergists,
sleep medicine physicians, otolaryngologists, dermatologists, primary care physi-
cians, pharmacists, psychologists, dentists, and other researchers.

The book structure reflects our overall approach to comprehensive allergy and
sleep care. First, in Part I, we provide a primer on the science of sleep, allergy,
immunology, circadian rhythms, and circadian immunology. In Part II, the clinical
science is addressed first by presenting symptoms in a case-based approach. Next,
we address assessment and treatment by specific, common allergic diseases. Finally,
disease, sleep, and circadian specific therapeutics are reviewed.
Researching the association of allergy and sleep-related disorders led us to a
paucity of literature. It is clear from clinical practice that children and adults with
allergic disorders sleep poorly. In our sleep medicine center, it is common to see
children with sleep disorders also suffer from allergy. When choosing topics for
chapters to include in this text, there were many with abundant literature from which
to draw. Still other topics revealed minimal evidence. It was decided to still include
these chapters to begin discussion of the topic and overlap. It was not to provide
answers but to stimulate questions for discussion and future research.
It is hoped this textbook will provide insight into cause and effect as well as an
understanding of the complex interactions healthcare practitioners face in order to
provide optimal care to their patients and families.

Immunological processes are regulated by sleep and circadian rhythms [1]. During
sleep, downregulation of the hypothalamus–pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and
reduced activity of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) occur. Levels of cortisol,
epinephrine, and norepinephrine decrease, whereas levels of growth hormone (GH),
leptin, and prolactin increase. All of these hormones and many others support
immune cell activation, proliferation, and differentiation and the production of pro-
inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1, IL-12, TNF-α, and IFN-γ. Immune rhythms
are also regulated by intrinsic cellular clocks which arise from conserved
transcription-translation feedback oscillator loops driven by a set of dedicated clock
proteins. These circadian clocks regulate the rhythms of inflammatory processes by

selectively intruding into immune pathways and orchestrate the phenotype and spe-
cific activity of multiple cells including macrophages, lymphocytes, and natural
killer cells.
In accordance with such circadian-immune interactions, differentiated immune
cells such as cytotoxic NK cells and terminally differentiated cytotoxic T lympho-
cytes increase their presence and activity during the day with increased prolonged
wake periods. Since their activation can occur as a rapid response pattern and very
quickly, this unique setup allows for the efficient and speedy combat of intruding
antigens and organisms that are more likely to occur during the active waking
phase. In contrast, undifferentiated or less differentiated immune cells, such as
naïve and central memory T cells, peak during the night, when the more slowly
evolving adaptive immune responses are initiated and propagated. Sleep, particu-
larly slow-wave sleep, i.e., the predominant stage of sleep during the first half of
the night, promotes the release of GH and prolactin, while cortisol and catechol-
amines are at trough levels. These conditions support not only the shift of the Th1/
Th2 cytokine balance toward that of Th1 but also enable the enhanced production
of IL-12 by antigen-presenting cells, a process that is essential for the activation of
T helper cells and an increase in T helper cell proliferation. Herein lies an impor-
tant facet of the role of sleep in the formation and maintenance of immunological
memory [2]. By the time one reaches the end of a night’s sleep in the early hours
of the morning, Th2 activity predominates [3]. From such observations, it follows
that perturbation to sleep integrity, cycling, or duration is likely to alter this finely
regulated and coordinated set of immune interactions, leading to disruption of the
immune homeostatic processes.
Interestingly, the relationship between the immune system and sleep is bidirec-
tional, such that the immune response can reciprocally impact on sleep. For exam-
ple, many infectious processes, particularly during the acute phase of the immune
response, result in an increase in the duration of NREM sleep and concomitant
decrease in REM sleep and wakefulness [4]. Cytokines such as IL-1β and TNF-α
are produced as part of the acute phase immune response and can induce symptoms
of fatigue and sleepiness and also promote non-rapid eye movement sleep [5]. This
is postulated to be a mechanism by which organisms divert energy resources toward
mounting a robust response against the infective challenge, and as such increased
sleep activity is likely to improve the specific antimicrobial immune function
response.
A substantial portion of our understanding on the relationship between sleep and the
immune system has been derived from experiments which curtail the duration of
sleep in experimental subjects. The impact of acute sleep deprivation differs from
that of chronic sleep restriction or deprivation. Prolonged sleep curtailment invokes
the non-specific persistent production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, resulting in a
