Late adolescents with asthma are rarely studied, since generally they are not included in children or adult groups; in addition, studies assessing asthma trends are scarce in Mexico, and their results might differ from findings in developed countries.
To determine the trends in asthma prevalence and its symptoms in late adolescents over a period of 7 years.
The prevalence of asthma and its symptoms were compared in two cross-sectional population-based cohorts, one from 2009 and the other from 2016.
The presence of wheezing sometime in life and during the previous year was significantly increased between 2009 and 2016 (12.8 % versus 20.1 % and 7.3 % versus 10.3 %, p < 0.001 and 0.002, respectively). The prevalence of asthma went from 7.8 % in 2009 to 12.7 % in 2016 (p < 0.0001). In addition, the prevalence of allergic rhinitis (4.5 % versus 9.0 %) and atopic dermatitis (3.8 % versus 5.2 %) also showed marked increases (p < 0.0001 and 0.051, respectively).
The prevalence of asthma and some of its symptoms in late adolescents substantially increased in a 7-year period.
患有哮喘的青少年晚期患者很少被研究,因为他们通常不被纳入儿童或成人组;此外,评估哮喘趋势的研究在墨西哥很少见,其结果可能与发达国家的研究结果不同。
确定7年间青少年晚期哮喘患病率及其症状的趋势。
比较了两个基于人群的横断面队列中哮喘及其症状的患病率,一个队列来自2009年,另一个来自2016年。
2009年至2016年间,一生中曾有过喘息和前一年有过喘息的比例显著增加(分别为12.8%对20.1%和7.3%对10.3%,p分别<0.001和0.002)。哮喘患病率从2009年的7.8%升至2016年的12.7%(p<0.0001)。此外,过敏性鼻炎(4.5%对9.0%)和特应性皮炎(3.8%对5.2%)的患病率也显著增加(p分别<0.0001和0.051)。
青少年晚期哮喘及其某些症状的患病率在7年期间大幅上升。
