Food allergy in children affects nutritional status that limits their daily activities to prevent eating various foods to avoid allergic reactions.
Analyzing the relationship between nutritional status and daily activities in children with food allergies.
This study used a cross-sectional design that was carried out on children diagnosed with food allergies who underwent outpatient management of food allergies. The data were collected from January to May 2021 that included participant characteristics, nutritional status, and daily activities. Data analysis used Chi-Square and spearman rho test with < 0.05.
There was a significant relationship between age and FAIS (CI 1.83-4.24; = 0.025). In addition, there was no significant relationship between the affected organs and FAIS (OR = 0.174; = 0.052). Meanwhile, the relationship between nutritional status and FAIS was significant (OR = 0.161; = 0.007). There was no significant relationship between parental education and FAIS (OR = 0.817; = 0.776) as well as sex of the child and FAIS (OR = 0.982; = 0.977).
Daily activities of children with food allergies are influenced by the nutritional status of children and children's age in choosing food.
儿童食物过敏会影响营养状况，这限制了他们的日常活动，使其避免食用各种食物以防止过敏反应。
分析食物过敏儿童的营养状况与日常活动之间的关系。
本研究采用横断面设计，对诊断为食物过敏并接受食物过敏门诊管理的儿童进行研究。数据收集于2021年1月至5月，包括参与者特征、营养状况和日常活动。数据分析采用卡方检验和Spearman秩相关检验，P<0.05。
年龄与食物过敏影响评分（FAIS）之间存在显著关系（可信区间1.83 - 4.24；P = 0.025）。此外，受累器官与FAIS之间无显著关系（比值比[OR]=0.174；P = 0.052）。同时，营养状况与FAIS之间的关系显著（OR = 0.161；P = 0.007）。父母教育程度与FAIS之间无显著关系（OR = 0.817；P = 0.776），儿童性别与FAIS之间也无显著关系（OR = 0.982；P = 0.977）。
食物过敏儿童的日常活动受儿童营养状况和儿童选择食物时的年龄影响。
