Otitis media is the most common infection second only to viral upper respiratory infection in the outpatient setting. Tympanostomy tube insertion (TTI) is the most common ambulatory surgical procedure in the USA. While many risk factors for otitis media have been identified, atopic conditions have been underrecognized as risk factors for recurrent and persistent otitis media. Given that asthma and other atopic conditions are the most common chronic conditions during childhood, it is worth examining the association between atopic conditions and risk of otitis media, which can provide insight into how atopic conditions influence the risk of microbial infections. This paper focuses its discussion on otitis media; however, it is important that the association between atopic conditions and risk of otitis media be interpreted in the context of the association of atopic conditions with increased risks of various microbial infections.
中耳炎是门诊中仅次于病毒上呼吸道感染的第二大常见感染。鼓室置管术（TTI）是美国最常见的门诊手术。尽管已经确定了许多中耳炎的危险因素，但特应性疾病一直被低估为复发性和持续性中耳炎的危险因素。鉴于哮喘和其他特应性疾病是儿童时期最常见的慢性疾病，因此值得研究特应性疾病与中耳炎风险之间的关联，这可以深入了解特应性疾病如何影响微生物感染的风险。本文的讨论重点是中耳炎;然而，在特应性疾病与各种微生物感染风险增加的关联的背景下，解释特应性疾病与中耳炎风险之间的关联非常重要。
