Abstract

Objective: Determine the prevalence of allergic rhinitis in school children.

Methods: Cross-sectional, descriptive study in children from 6 to 10 years old. Those who underwent skin testing (mites, pollens, fungi, cockroach, dog and cat hair) were included. The diagnosis of allergic rhinitis was made based on the test recommended by the European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (EAACI) and the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI) for the diagnosis of allergy mediated by allergen-specific IgE. The statistical analysis included confidence interval for averages and percentages.

Results: In the 992 patients, the prevalence of allergic rhinitis was 15.7% (95% CI; 13.4-18.0), the predominant symptom was hyaline rhinorrhea in 94.7% (95% CI; 91.4-94.6), the main allergen was dust mites 60.4% (95% CI; 52.7-68.1) and pollen 59.3% (95% CI; 51.6-67.0).

Conclusion: The prevalence of allergic rhinitis in school children with positive skin tests is 15.7%, with a predominance of males with 63.1%.

[在过敏服务中心接受治疗的6至10岁儿童变应性鼻炎患病率]。

目的：了解学龄期儿童变应性鼻炎的患病率。方法：对6 ~ 10岁儿童进行横断面描述性研究。包括那些接受皮肤测试的人（螨虫、花粉、真菌、蟑螂、狗和猫的毛发）。根据欧洲过敏与临床免疫学学会（EAACI）和美国过敏、哮喘与免疫学学会（ACAAI）推荐的用于诊断过敏原特异性IgE介导的过敏的测试，对变应性鼻炎进行诊断。统计分析包括平均值和百分比的置信区间。结果：992例患者中，变应性鼻炎患病率为15.7% (95% CI；13.4-18.0)， 94.7%的患者以透明性鼻漏为主要症状(95% CI；91.4 ~ 94.6)，主要变应原为尘螨60.4% (95% CI；52.7-68.1)，花粉59.3% (95% CI；51.6 - -67.0)。结论：皮肤试验阳性学龄儿童变应性鼻炎患病率为15.7%，以男性为主（63.1%）。
