Abstract

Introduction: ASTHMA is one of the most common chronic conditions in CHILDren. Objective: The present study was based on target population. After the study of PREVALENCE, determination of ASTHMA was matched by case- control method to identify correlates in primary school CHILDren aged 6-12 years in Shiraz (Southern Iran). Materials and Methods: This study was conducted in 2228 primary school CHILDren. The CHILDren were selected using two-stage random sampling from the four educational districts of Shiraz. A screening questionnaire was completed for each CHILD. The consultant physician examined the CHILDren with positive result. After diagnosis of ASTHMA, control group was selected by using matching method (age-sex-school). Conditional Logestic Regression determined the correlates of ASTHMA. Results: The most important results were as follows: PREVALENCE of diagnosed ASTHMA in primary school CHILDren estimated as %102 (boys: 1.19% – girls: 1.13%) with no significant difference. There was no significant association between ASTHMA and birth order, social class, parent’s education, mother’s occupation and duration of breast-feeding. An increased risk of CHILDhood ASTHMA was associated with familiar history of allergic rhinitis (P<0.04), familial history of ASTHMA (P< 0.01), history of allergy in CHILDren, (P<0.007) and exposure to smoking ( P<0.016). Conclusion: Our study confirmed that familial atopic diseases and exposure to smoking were significant predictors of CHILDhood ASTHMA in Shiraz CHILDren.
