Evaluation of the Relationship Between the Incidence of Hay Fever and the Growth of Allergenic Plants in the Voronezh region
Abstract
The large-scale spread of allergic morbidity is an urgent social and economic health problem i n various states. The purpose is to test the hypothesis of a relationship between the average long-term incidence of hay fever, the forest cover index and the fact of the presence of ragweed in the Voronezh region. Materials and methods. The materials for the analysis were statistical accounting forms No. 12 for the period from 2012 to 2021, as well as the results of regional studies of forest cover and the distribution of ragweed, published in the open scientific press. A retrospective study of the incidence of pollinosis in various population groups was carried out. Ranking of territories according to the level of morbidity, correlation analysis and assessment of the reliability of differences between the indicators of morbidity, forest cover and the fact of the spread of ragweed. A retrospective study of the incidence of pollinosis in different population groups, ranking of areas according to the level of morbidity, correlation analysis and assessment of the reliability of differences between the indicators of morbidity, forest cover and the fact of the spread of ragweed were carried out. Results and discussion. The study noted the annual registration of the incidence of hay fever in the Voronezh region in all age groups of the population. Based on the ranking of areas, the Ramonsky district was assigned to the fi rst ranking place in terms of incidence. The correlation analysis carried out between the indicator of the average long-term incidence of pollinosis, the indicator of forest cover and the fact of the spread of ragweed showed a statistically significant relationship of average strength between the analyzed values. The assessment of the reliability of differences was carried out taking into account the selection of territories that differ in the analyzed indicators. Conclusions. The hypothesis about the relationship between the incidence of hay fever among the population, the indicator of forest cover and the fact of the presence of ragweed in the Voronezh region was confirmed.
