The occurrence of atopic diseases in school children in the community of Sør-Varanger was studied on the basis of a questionnaire sent to the parents of all the 575 children aged 7-12 years. 551 children (95.8%), 266 girls and 285 boys, completed the questionnaire. Atopic diseases were reported to be present or to have occurred in 249 (45.2%) of the 551 children, more frequently in girls (50.4%) than in boys (40.4%) (p < 0.02). Asthma occurred in 68 cases (12.3%), with almost the same frequency in girls (13.2%) and boys (11.2%). Allergic rhinoconjunctivitis was detected in 113 children (20.6%); it was slightly more frequent in boys (21.8%) than in girls (18.9%) but did not reach statistical significance. Urticaria occurred in 72 cases (13.1%), more frequently in girls (17.7%) than in boys (8.8%) (p < 0.002), while atopic dermatitis occurred in 130 cases (23.6%), again more frequently in girls (27.6%) than in boys (19.6%) (p < 0.03). Ninety-four (37.8%) of the children experienced more than one atopic symptom. In 75% of the children with dermatitis the age at onset was under 5 and more than 50% of the children with asthma had experienced symptoms before the age of 3. Parental history of atopic diseases was reported by 35.6% of all children, more frequently in mothers (30.2%) than in fathers (20.1%). On the other hand, 30.6% of children with no parental history of atopic diseases appeared to develop some kind of atopic disease; this increased to 48.0% with a single and to 56.1% with a double parental history.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
基于向索-瓦朗厄尔社区所有575名7至12岁儿童的家长发放的调查问卷,对该社区学童特应性疾病的发病情况进行了研究。551名儿童(95.8%),其中266名女孩和285名男孩,完成了调查问卷。在这551名儿童中,有249名(45.2%)被报告患有或曾患特应性疾病,女孩(50.4%)比男孩(40.4%)更常见(p<0.02)。哮喘发生68例(12.3%),女孩(13.2%)和男孩(11.2%)的发生率几乎相同。113名儿童(20.6%)检测出过敏性鼻结膜炎;男孩(21.8%)比女孩(18.9%)略为常见,但未达到统计学显著性。荨麻疹发生72例(13.1%),女孩(17.7%)比男孩(8.8%)更常见(p<0.002),而特应性皮炎发生130例(23.6%),同样女孩(27.6%)比男孩(19.6%)更常见(p<0.03)。94名(37.8%)儿童出现一种以上特应性症状。75%的皮炎患儿发病年龄在5岁以下,50%以上的哮喘患儿在3岁前出现症状。35.6%的儿童有特应性疾病家族史,母亲(30.2%)比父亲(20.1%)更常见。另一方面,30.6%无特应性疾病家族史的儿童似乎患了某种特应性疾病;单亲家族史时这一比例增至48.0%,双亲家族史时增至56.1%。(摘要截选至250词)
