Many studies have shown consistent associations between evident indoor dampness or mold and respiratory or allergic health effects, but causal links remain unclear. Findings on measured microbiologic factors have received little review. We conducted an updated, comprehensive review on these topics. The review indicated that evident dampness or mold had consistent positive associations with multiple allergic and respiratory effects.
