Abstract

Background Obesity is an established risk factor for the occurrence and severity of atopic diseases, particularly asthma in adults and children. Because asthma and allergic rhinitis share common allergic inflammatory pathways, the aim of the study is to investigate the association between fat distributions that is determined by anthropometric measures including neck circumference and the severity and persistence patterns of children with allergic rhinitis (AR).

Highlights

  • Obesity is an established risk factor for the occurrence and severity of atopic diseases, asthma in adults and children

  • P05 - Wider neck circumference may be related with symptom persistence in children with allergic rhinitis
