哮喘在世界各地区有所增加。与流行率上升有关的因素仍有待确定。评估墨西哥西部学龄儿童哮喘患病率与被动吸烟和肥胖的关联程度。一项基于人群的横断面分析研究。分层随机抽样选择了740名6至12岁的小学生。哮喘、被动吸烟和过敏性疾病的背景通过由参与者的父母填写的标准化问卷来确定。肥胖是通过体重指数来识别的。估计人群的比例部分，并通过多变量logistic回归评估哮喘（因变量）和自变量之间的关联程度。患病率的影响因素依次为：哮喘8.1%，肥胖19.9%，父亲吸烟6.7%，母亲吸烟13.3%。在父母一方吸烟的被动吸烟（p = 0.39）或肥胖（p = 0.09）中，未发现与哮喘的显著关联。另一方面，母亲的过敏性疾病背景与男孩的哮喘有统计学显著相关性（比值比= 3.5，95%置信区间1.4 - 8.59），但在女孩中没有。除了母亲过敏的背景，肥胖和被动吸烟都不是与墨西哥儿童哮喘相关的因素。
Asthma has increased in various regions of the world. The factors associated with the growth in prevalence are still to be determined. To evaluate the degree of association of the prevalence of asthma with passive smoking and obesity in school-children in western Mexico. A population-based cross-section analytic study. A stratified random sample of 740 primary school pupils of between 6 and 12 years of age was chosen. Asthma, passive smoking and a background of allergic diseases were identified by means of a standardized questionnaire filled out by the parents of the participants. Obesity was identified by means of the body mass index. Proportional sections of population were estimated and the degree of association between asthma (dependent variable) and the independent variables was evaluated by means of multivariate logistic regression. The following factors of prevalence were found: asthma 8.1%; obesity 19.9%; background of smoking in the father 6.7% and in the mother 13.3%. There was no significant association to be found with asthma in either passive smoking where one of the parents smoked (p = 0.39) or in obesity (p = 0.09). On the other hand, the background of allergic diseases in the mother showed statistically significant association with asthma in the boys (odds ratio = 3.5, 95% confidence interval 1.4 to 8.59), but not in the girls. With the exception of the maternal background of allergy, neither obesity nor passive smoking are factors associated with asthma in Mexican children.
