알레르기성 비염을 앓는 아이가 부쩍 늘었다. 2009년 국민건강보험공단의 발표에 따르면 알레르기성 비염을 앓는 아동, 청소년이 4년 전에 비해 1.3배나 증가했다. 특히 4세 이하 영유아의 경우 5명중 1명이 알레르기성 비염을 앓고 있다고 한다. 그러나 이 시기의 아이들은 어느 곳이 어떻게 불편하지 정확하게 표현하지 못하기 때문에 치료에 소홀하기가 쉽다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between serum vitamin E levels and the risk of allergic rhinitis among Koreans. This study is a secondary data analysis using big data from the seventh Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES VII-3), which was conducted in 2018. Complex-sample descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA and odds ratio were used for data analysis in SPSS 25. The average serum vitamin E level among Koreans aged above 10 was 12.60 mg/L, and 15.9% had been diagnosed with of allergic rhinitis by a doctor. Lower serum vitamin E levels were significantly associated with the prevalence of allergic rhinitis (β=-0.05, p=.013). Therefore, efforts to prevent and manage allergic rhinitis among Koreans should incorporate regular monitoring of vitamin E level and ongoing research into antioxidants.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of allergic diseases and its related factorsin Korean adolescents. The subjects were 72,435 middle and high school students. The data were analyzed by ${\chi}^2$ test and multiple logistic regression analysis. The prevalence of asthma, allergic rhinitis, and atopic dermatitis was 9.3%, 30.6%, and 23.4%, respectively. According to multiple logistic regression analysis, asthma was associated with gender, age, economic state, obesity, stress, sleep satisfaction, secondhand smoking, drug use, other allergic diseases and physical activity. Allergic rhinitis was associated with age, economic state, residential area, type of residence, obesity, stress, sleep satisfaction, smoking experience, secondhand smoking, alcohol drinking, other allergic diseases and physical activity. Finally, atopic dermatitis was associated with gender, age, economic state, residential area, obesity, stress, other allergic diseases and physical activity.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence of allergic rhinitis between urban areas in the adjacent areas to a steel industrial complex and rural areas and the impact of pollutants in the industrialized city on allergic rhinitis. Methods: From July 28 to August 9 of 2008, 1,043 residents of urban and rural areas in a local community had enrolled in health screening and questionnaire survey. One thousand thirty-three patients also underwent a skin prick test. Prevalence rates of allergic rhinitis were calculated according to residential areas, and the used statistical analysis were Fisher's exact test and chi-square test. Results: In a survey, the fraction of adults, who complained of sneezing, nasal obstruction and rhinorrhea, during a recent 1 year period, showed the significant difference between urban (30.5%) and rural areas (22.4%). The fractions of positive skin prick tests were not different between two areas in each age group. The prevalence of allergic rhinitis was 8.4% in urban areas and 6.9% in rural areas. Considering the age groups, the adults group only showed the significantly higher prevalence of allergic rhinitis in urban areas (8.2% vs. 3.7%). Conclusions: Unlike the children and adolescents groups, the prevalence of allergic rhinitis in adults group was higher in the industrialized urban areas.

최근 들어 알레르기 질환이 급증하고 있다. 국내 알레르기 환자 수는 6백만 명 이상이며 서구화된 생활환경, 공해, 각종 화학물질 사용의 증가로 인해 환자는 계속 증가 추세이다. 현재 추정되는 환자수 만도 전 인구의 15~20%선, 우리 나라 성인 중 약 10%, 어린이는 약 20%에서 나타나고 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 대표적인 알레르기 질환은 꽃가루에 의한 화분증과 집먼지 진드기, 동물의 털 등이 주원인인 알레르기성 비염.결막염.천식.피부염 등이 있다. 그러나 알레르기 질환은 주위에서 흔히 접하면서도 일반인들에게 막연히 알려져 있고, 단지 완치가 힘들어 난치병 정도로만 인식되어 있다. 알레르기 질환 보통 대부분의 사람에게 있어서는 아무런 문제도 일으키지 않는 물질이 어떤 사람에게만 두드러기, 비염, 천식 등 이상과민반응을 일으키는 것을 말한다. 알레르기도 우리 몸 속에서 일어나는 면역반응의 한 종류지만 몸에 유해한 반응을 말하며 요즘 들어서는 과민성이란 의미로 사용된다.

Metabolic syndrome and allergic rhinitis are two important chronic diseases that affect people all over the world. Metabolic syndrome very often induces other diseases and the prevalence of allergic rhinitis is currently increasing. Aging is known to affect the pathogenesis of various diseases such as metabolic syndrome and allergy. This study examined the effects of metabolic syndrome and the prevalence of allergic rhinitis depending on different age groups and several general characteristics. This study was conducted by using the data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from the 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th-1 (2007~2016). The data used for this study was obtained from 51,854 people. In all age groups, our studies have shown that people without metabolic syndrome have a higher prevalence of allergic rhinitis than those people with metabolic syndrome, and the younger age group had the higher prevalence of allergic rhinitis (P<0.05). Overall, the results of this study found a significant effect on the prevalence of allergic rhinitis in each category of age, general characteristics (physical activity, smoking and drinking) and the presence or absence of metabolic syndrome (P<0.05). The evidence found in this study will help to understand the correlation between metabolic syndrome and allergy, and specifically allergic rhinitis.
