自1977年以来，在瑞典的马尔莫进行了一项关于急性中耳炎（AOM）发病率的队列研究。这项研究包括8900名出生于1977-1980年的儿童。最长观察时间为48个月。6-11个月大的儿童患AOM的风险最大。在1977年出生的儿童中，54%在48个月大之前至少发作过一次，其中48%的儿童不止一次发作。性别差异无统计学意义，但男生的累积发病率（CIR）明显高于女生。在18个月前首次发作的儿童中，复发率明显较高。与现代公寓区或市中心的儿童相比，现代别墅郊区的儿童中AOM的CIR更高。日托中心的儿童比在家或家庭日托所的儿童更容易复发AOM。
Since 1977 a cohort study on the incidence of acute otitis media (AOM) is going on in Malmo, Sweden. The study includes 8 900 children born in 1977–1980. The maximum time of observation was 48 months. Children, aged 6–11 months, run the greatest risk of getting AOM. 54% of the children born in 1977 had at least one episode before the age of 48 months and 48% of these children had more than one episode. There was no difference with sex, but the boys had significantly higher cumulative incidence rate (CIR) than the girls. Recurrent episodes were significantly higher in children having their first episode before the age of 18 months. The CIR of AOM was higher among children in a modern villa suburb compared to those in a modern apartment-house district or in the centre of the city. Children at day-care centers run a greater risk of getting recurrent AOM than those at home or in family day-care homes.
