CONCLUSIONS Although the number of children treated in US EDs for facial burns decreased significantly from 2000-2018, these injuries remain common. Contrary to the observed decline in thermal and radiation burns, scald burns did not demonstrate a significant temporal trend. These findings indicate a need for increased prevention efforts, especially focused on scalds. Because the type of burn, mechanisms involved, and consumer products associated with facial burns vary by age group, prevention strategies should be developmentally tailored. OBJECTIVES Our objectives were to (1) quantify the frequency of wheezing episodes and asthma diagnosis in young children in a large pediatric primary care network and (2) assess the variability in practice-level asthma diagnosis, accounting for common asthma risk factors and comorbidities. We hypothesized that significant variability in practice-level asthma diagnosis rates would remain after adjusting for associated predictors. METHODS We generated a retrospective longitudinal birth cohort of children who visited one of 31 pediatric primary care practices within the first 6 months of life from 1/2005-12/2016. Children were observed for up to 8 years or until the end of the observation window. We used multivariable discrete time survival models to evaluate predictors of asthma diagnosis by 3-month age intervals. We compared unadjusted and adjusted proportions of children diagnosed with asthma by practice. RESULTS Of the 161,502 children in the cohort, 34,578 children (21%) received at least one asthma diagnosis. In multivariable modeling, male gender, minority race/ethnicity, gestational age less then 34 weeks, allergic rhinitis, food allergy, and prior wheezing episodes were associated with asthma diagnosis. After adjusting for variation in these predictors across practices, the cumulative incidence
