Background: Food allergy (FA) in children impacts their own and their family quality of life (QoL). The association of specific FA factors with the various domains of health-related QoL (HRQL) in children is unclear. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate FA characteristics in primary school children as determinants of components of HRQL. Methods: Children with FA were recruited from the allergy clinic of a tertiary children’s hospital. Demographic and clinical data were retrieved from their records, and 3 HRQL questionnaires were administered: the FA QoL Questionnaire-Child Form (FAQLQ-CF), the FA independent measure (FAIM), and the Pediatric QoL Questionnaire (PedsQL™). Stepwise multiple linear regression analysis was carried out to investigate the correlation between FA characteristics and the scores on the HRQL scales. Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons was set at p #x3c; 0.0002. Results: Of 172 primary schoolchildren with FA invited to take part, 110 participated (response rate 64%), of whom 83 (75.5%) were male, aged 7.5–12.3 years (mean 10.0 ± 1.4) years. From 38 demographic and clinical characteristics, 10 were excluded on initial data analysis and 28 proceeded to bivariate analysis with the scores on FAQLQ-CF, FAIM, PedsQL™, and their subscales. Most of the 28 showed no correlation with the scores; only 4 were entered into multivariate analysis with FAQLQ-CF and PedsQL™ scores, none of which, finally showed significant association. Conclusion: The HRQL of children with FA did not depend on gender, age, number, and type of allergen or the characteristics of the most severe allergic reaction.

食物过敏儿童生活质量决定因素调查

背景:儿童食物过敏 (FA) 会影响他们自己和家庭的生活质量 (QoL)。特定 FA 因素与儿童健康相关 QoL (HRQL) 各个领域的关联尚不清楚。目的:本研究的目的是评估小学生的 FA 特征作为 HRQL 组成部分的决定因素。方法:从三级儿童医院的过敏诊所招募患有 FA 的儿童。从他们的记录中检索人口统计学和临床​​数据,并管理了 3 份 HRQL 问卷:FA QoL 问卷 - 儿童表 (FAQLQ-CF)、FA 独立测量 (FAIM) 和小儿 QoL 问卷 (PedsQL™)。进行逐步多元线性回归分析以研究 FA 特征与 HRQL 量表分数之间的相关性。多重比较的 Bonferroni 校正设置为p #x3c;0.0002。结果:在受邀参加的 172 名 FA 小学生中,有 110 名参加(响应率 64%),其中 83 名(75.5%)为男性,年龄 7.5-12.3 岁(平均 10.0 ± 1.4)岁。从 38 个人口统计学和临床​​特征中,10 个在初始数据分析中被排除,28 个进行双变量分析,对 FAQLQ-CF、FAIM、PedsQL™ 及其子量表进行评分。28 个中的大多数与分数没有相关性;只有 4 项通过 FAQLQ-CF 和 PedsQL™ 分数进行多变量分析,最终均未显示出显着关联。结论: FA患儿的HRQL与性别、年龄、数量、过敏原类型或最严重过敏反应的特征无关。
