STUDY OBJECTIVE
To examine in children the relationship of wheezing to measurable environmental factors.
STUDY DESIGN
Multiple regression analysis was used to measure correlation with air quality, weather, and seasonal and infection-related variables.
RESULTS
Daily wheezing census was significantly correlated with weather and seasonal variables and the daily infection census. We are not certain which weather variable is the dominant factor in the weather association because all of the weather variables have some degree of colinearity. Air quality as measured by carbon monoxide and airborne particles was not shown to be associated with wheezing.
CONCLUSION
A high incidence of pediatric emergency department presentations for wheezing are associated with weather, infections, and months of the year.
研究目的
在儿童中研究喘息与可测量环境因素之间的关系。
研究设计
采用多元回归分析来测量与空气质量、天气以及季节和感染相关变量的相关性。
结果
每日喘息普查与天气、季节变量以及每日感染普查显著相关。我们不确定在与天气的关联中哪个天气变量是主导因素，因为所有天气变量都存在一定程度的共线性。一氧化碳和空气中颗粒物所测量的空气质量与喘息未显示出相关性。
结论
儿科急诊科因喘息就诊的高发病率与天气、感染以及一年中的月份有关。
