A total of 762 children participated in this survey. To evaluate the risk factors and specific sensitization patterns of clinical AR through questionnaires and specific immunoglobulin E to 11 aeroallergens.Results: Of the 762 patients, 593 (77.8%) had at least one positive IgE level. Aged 7– 14 years (OR 1.503, (95% CI 1.058– 2.136), P = 0.023); With allergic conjunctivitis (OR 1.843, (95% CI 1.297– 2.620), P = 0.001) and living in the Eastern (OR 1.802, (95% CI 1.263– 2.573), P = 0.001) all elevated the risk of clinical AR associated with aeroallergens. The sensitization rates of D. pteronyssinus and D. farinae were higher than those of other allergens in the 0– 6 and 7– 14 years old age groups. The most common aeroallergens among self-reported children with AR in the eastern were D. farinae (74.9%) and D. pteronyssinus (74.3%), while in the western were mugwort (60.0%) and marguerite (56.6%). Majority of sIgE-positive subjects were sensitized to three or more of the tested pollen allergens in the Western (52.1%), compared with 5.7% in the Eastern.Conclusion: There was an apparent geographic variation in childhood allergies in China. Age factors also had strong impacts on the allergen sensitization rate of children, but these impacts differed across regions.Keywords: allergic rhinitis, specific immunoglobulin E, cross-sectional survey, aeroallergen, children |
