Abstract

Objective: To determine the prevalence of allergic rhinitis and its associated factors in students from several Mexican states.

Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in order to identify the factors that are associated with the prevalence of allergic rhinitis. The "Allergic Rhinitis Diagnostic Questionnaire for Epidemiological Studies" was used, together with another questionnaire, to identify risk factors in allergic rhinitis.

Results: 11381 students of 12-24 years of age were included; the prevalence of allergic rhinitis was of 18 % (CI 95 % = 11.4-24.6), with predominance in females (60%). The factors associated with allergic rhinitis were: heredity, (OR = 2-4, p < 0.0001), respiratory infections, (OR = 2-4.6, p < 0.0001); areas with humidity at home (OR= 1.5 - 1.9, p < 0.0001), and being female (OR = 1.7 - 2.4, p < 0.002). The use of tobacco, the educational level and vehicular traffic, as well as carpeting and the use of scented disinfectants, showed no association.

Conclusions: The factors associated with allergic rhinitis in students were; heredity, respiratory infections, humidity in house walls, and being female.

墨西哥学生变应性鼻炎患病率及相关因素分析。多中心研究]。

目的:了解墨西哥几个州学生变应性鼻炎的患病率及其相关因素。方法:进行横断面研究，以确定与变应性鼻炎患病率相关的因素。采用《变应性鼻炎流行病学诊断问卷》和另一份问卷，确定变应性鼻炎的危险因素。结果:共纳入12 ~ 24岁学生11381人;变应性鼻炎的患病率为18% (CI 95% = 11.4 ~ 24.6)，以女性为主(60%)。与变应性鼻炎相关的因素有:遗传(OR = 2-4, p < 0.0001)、呼吸道感染(OR = 2-4.6, p < 0.0001);家中湿度较大的地区(OR= 1.5 ~ 1.9, p < 0.0001)，女性(OR= 1.7 ~ 2.4, p < 0.002)。烟草的使用、教育程度和车辆交通，以及地毯和有香味消毒剂的使用，没有显示出关联。结论:学生变应性鼻炎的相关因素有:遗传，呼吸道感染，房屋墙壁的湿度，以及作为女性。
