摘要
In China, the prevalence rates of asthma and allergies have been increasing in past 50 years. Several epidemiological investigations have indicated that dampness is associated with health effects such as respiratory infections, asthma and allergy. This study aims to find the associations between home dampness and asthma, rhinitis and eczema among children. A cross-sectional study on dampness and asthma and allergy at Tianjin was launched in 2013. Questionnaires were used to survey indoor dampness and health outcomes of occupants. 3.5% parents reported that they have noticed visible mildew/mold in child's rooms. The association between water leakage and asthma among children was seemingly strong (AOR: 3.29, 95% CI: 1.75-6.19). The dampness in home may have influence on asthma, rhinitis and eczema among children. (C) 2015 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
