Publication Open Access Prevalence and time trends of symptoms of allergic rhinitis and rhinoconjunctivitis in spanish children: Global Asthma Network (GAN) study(Codon Publications, 2023) Bercedo Sanz, Alberto; Martínez-Torres, Antonela; López Silvarrey Varela, Ángel; Pellegrini Belinchón, Francisco Javier; Aguinaga Ontoso, Inés; González Díaz, Carlos; García Marcos, Luís; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakINTRODUCTION: The time trends of the prevalence of rhinitis, rhinoconjunctivitis and nasal allergy previously described in the ISAAC (International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood) in 2002 are unknown; or if the geographical or age differences in Spain persist. OBJECTIVE: To describe the prevalence of rhinitis, rhinoconjunctivitis and nasal allergy in different Spanish geographical areas and compare them with those of the ISAAC. METHODS: Cross-sectional study of the prevalence of rhinitis, rhinoconjunctivitis and nasal allergy, carried out in 2016-2019 on 19943 adolescents aged 13-14 years and 17215 schoolchildren aged 6-7 years from six Spanish areas (Cartagena, Bilbao, Cantabria, La Coruña, Pamplona, and Salamanca), through a questionnaire based on the Global Asthma Network (GAN) protocol. RESULTS: The prevalences of recent rhinitis and rhinoconjunctivitis (last 12 months), and nasal allergy/hay fever were 35.1%, 17.6%, and 14.6% in the adolescents and 20%, 8.5%, and 8.9% in the schoolchildren, respectively, with rhinoconjunctivitis in adolescents varying from 20.9% in Bilbao to 13.4% in Cartagena; and in schoolchildren, from 9.8% in La Coruña to 6.4% in Pamplona. These prevalences of rhinoconjunctivitis and nasal allergy in adolescents were higher than those described in the ISAAC (16.3% and 13%) and similar in schoolchildren to the ISAAC (9% and 9.4%). CONCLUSIONS: There has been a stabilisation of rhinitis, rhinoconjunctivitis and nasal allergy in schoolchildren that slows the previous upward trend of ISAAC; and a slight non-significant increase in rhinoconjunctivitis and nasal allergy in adolescents. The variability found in adolescents would require local research to be better understood.Publication Open Access Prevalencia y evolución temporal de síntomas de asma en España. Estudio Global Asthma Network (GAN)(Asociación Española de Pediatría, 2022) Bercedo Sanz, Alberto; Martínez-Torres, Antonela; González Díaz, Carlos; López Silvarrey Varela, Ángel; Pellegrini Belinchón, Francisco Javier; Aguinaga Ontoso, Inés; García Marcos, Luís; Grupo GAN Espana; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakIntroduction: the temporal evolution of the prevalence of asthma described in the International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood (ISAAC) in 2002 is unknown, or if the geographical or age differences are maintained in Spain. Objective: to describe the prevalence of asthma symptoms in different Spanish geographical areas and compare it with that of those centers that participated in the ISAAC. Methods: cross-sectional study of asthma prevalence, carried out in 2016-2019 with 19,943 adolescents aged 13-14 years and 17,215 schoolchildren aged 6-7 years from six Spanish geographical areas (Cartagena, Bilbao, Cantabria, La Coruña, Pamplona and Salamanca). Asthma symptoms were collected using a written questionnaire and video questionnaire according to the Global Asthma Network (GAN) protocol. Results: the prevalence of recent wheezing (last 12 months) was 15.3% at 13-14 years and 10.4% at 6-7 years, with variations in adolescents, from 19% in Bilbao to 10.2% in Cartagena; and in schoolchildren, from 11.7% in Cartagena to 7% in Pamplona. These prevalences were higher than those of the ISAAC (10.6% in adolescents and 9.9% in schoolchildren). About 21.3% of adolescents and 12.4% of schoolchildren reported asthma at some time. Conclusions: there is a high prevalence of asthmatic symptoms with an increase in adolescents and a stabilization in Spanish schoolchildren with respect to the ISAAC. Geographical variations in asthma prevalence are not so clearly appreciated, but areas with high prevalences maintain high numbers.
