Abstract

A study to determine the prevalence of childhood asthma and other allergic diseases was done in Adana, during the period between January 1993 and January 1994. The study has been carried out on 2334 children (48.5% boys). Asthma and the other allergic diseases were recognized in 23.6% of the children. The prevalence of asthma, rhinoconjunctivitis, wheezing, and atopic dermatitis were found to be 12.9, 8.8, 8.4, and 5.0%, respectively. The symptoms of respiratory allergic diseases (asthma, rhinoconjunctivitis, wheezing) seemed to be significantly associated with the environmental factors. In conclusion, asthma and other allergic diseases constituted a major health problem for school children in Adana.

摘要

1993年1月至1994年1月期间，在阿达纳进行了一项确定儿童哮喘及其他过敏性疾病患病率的研究。该研究对2334名儿童（48.5%为男孩）进行。23.6%的儿童被诊断出患有哮喘及其他过敏性疾病。哮喘、鼻结膜炎、喘息和特应性皮炎的患病率分别为12.9%、8.8%、8.4%和5.0%。呼吸道过敏性疾病（哮喘、鼻结膜炎、喘息）的症状似乎与环境因素显著相关。总之，哮喘和其他过敏性疾病是阿达纳学龄儿童的一个主要健康问题。
