Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the impact of environmental factors in Tianmen on clinical indicators of pediatric snoring with allergic rhinitis and to analyze their correlations.This study aims to deepen the understanding of the relationship between environmental factors and pediatric respiratory diseases,and to provide scientific evidence for future prevention and treatment strategies.METHODS A retrospective study was conducted based on the clinical data of 3 071 pediatric patients with snoring admitted to Tianmen First People's Hospital from January 1,2021,to December 31,2023.The 95th percentile values of PM2.5,SO₂,NO₂,PM10,and CO,as well as the 90th percentile value of O₃,in Tianmen during the same period were collected.Correlation analysis and binary logistic regression were used to investigate the association between environmental factors and pediatric snoring with allergic rhinitis.RESULTS Pearson correlation analysis revealed positive correlations among SO₂,NO₂,PM10,PM2.5,and CO,with the strongest correlation between PM2.5 and PM10(r=0.862,P<0.001).In contrast,O₃ was negatively correlated with other pollutants,with the most significant negative correlation observed between CO and O₃(r=-0.505,P<0.001).Seasonal distribution showed that pollutant levels were significantly lower in summer than in winter.Among the 3 071 patients,840 cases were complicated with allergic rhinitis.Significant differences were observed between the allergic rhinitis and non-allergic rhinitis groups in terms of PM2.5 levels,length of hospital stay,total cost,drug cost,antibiotic cost,year of treatment,and treatment modalities(P<0.05).Logistic regression indicated that PM2.5 was an independent risk factor for pediatric snoring with allergic rhinitis(OR=1.013,95%CI:1.010-1.017,P<0.05),and this remained significant after adjusting for multiple clinical variables(OR=1.010,95%CI:1.007-1.014,P<0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that the combined diagnostic model using PM2.5 and total cost had the highest diagnostic performance(AUC=0.642,95%CI:0.620-0.664),which was superior to PM2.5 alone(AUC=0.636)or total cost alone(AUC=0.623).CONCLUSION Pediatric snoring with allergic rhinitis is closely related to environmental factors,especially PM2.5,which has a significant impact.These findings may provide a scientific basis for targeted environmental interventions and treatment strategies to improve the quality of life in affected children.关键词
