Abstract

Purpose: The study was performed to identify the relationship between particulate matter and allergic diseases among adolescents in South Korea. Methods: The study used the raw data from the Korean Youth Risk Behavior Web-Based Survey which was performed in 2018. The data of a total of 60,040 students were analyzed, using SPSS 21, by descriptive statistics, t-test, χ2 test, and logistic regression. Results: Allergic diseases among adolescents were showed to be significantly related to gender, age, school record, stress, BMI, insufficient sleep, depression, current drinking, current smoking, and particulate matter concentrations. Conclusion: The findings suggest that a health promotion program that considers particulate matter concentrations be developed to improve the health status of adolescents with allergic diseases.
