Abstract:
Objective:To explore the inhaled allergen sensitization status of children with allergic rhinitis in Beijing City, and to provide evidence for diagnosis and treatment, allergen avoidance and disease management.Methods:In this cross-sectional study, data from 8 741 children with allergic rhinitis treated in Children′s Hospital affiliated to Capital Institute of Pediatrics from January 2020 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The subjects were divided into toddlers (1 y-≤3 y), preschool children (3 y-≤6 y), school aged children (6 y-≤12 y) and adolescents (12 y-≤18 y) and according to season the subjects were divided 4 groups: spring, summer, autumn, winter. The ImmunoCAP system was used to detect serum allergens sIgE.Results:The positive rates of inhaled allergens among subjects in sequence from high to low were: mx2 [molds (penicillium speciosum/mycosporum multiflorum/aspergillus fumigatus/alternatia/demodex longum)], w6 (artemisiaargyi), wx5[weeds pollen combination (ragweed/artemisia argyi/marguerite/dandelion/goldenrod)], w1(ragweed), tx5[trees pollen combination (populus tomentosa/hazel/elm/willow)], d2(dermatophagoides farina), d1(dermatophagoides pteronyssinus), ex1[animal dander combination (catdander/dogdander/horsedander/cowdander)], i6(blattella germanica). Boys have higher positive rates of sIgE responses than girls (54.20% vs. 47.96%, χ 2= 8 923.000, P<0. 001). The primacy inhaled allergen in toddlers, preschool children and school aged children was mx2 (37.75%, 39.99% and 42.46%), and in adolescents w6 (45.45%), d2 (41.51%) and d1 (37.74%) were the largest categories. Except for mold, the positive detection rate of inhaled allergens increased gradually with age. In different seasons, the positive rates of ex1 (24.77% vs. 18.26% vs. 17.10% vs. 12.39%, χ 2= 31.469, P<0.001), wx5 (20.18% vs. 28.62% vs. 39.96% vs. 12.53%, χ 2= 155.788, P<0.001), mx2 (31.79% vs. 50.96% vs. 36.99 vs. 28.81, χ 2= 208.444, P<0.001), tx5 (28.14% vs. 27.01% vs. 26.77% vs. 9.64%, χ 2= 60.613, P<0.001) and w6 (26.57% vs. 34.39% vs. 52.11% vs. 25.35%, χ 2= 17.710, P<0.001) were statistically different among groups. Mx2 in spring and summer was the highest categories (31.79%, 50.96%), and w6 in autumn was the highest (52.11%). Conclusions:In this study, mx2 was the most important allergen in children (≤12 y) and w6 was the highest in adolescents treated in Children′s Hospital affiliated to Capital Institute of Pediatrics from January 2020 to December 2021 in Beijing City. The types of allergens and positivity rates were different for different sexes, ages and seasons.
