Background: Major questions remain regarding the agestratified trends of allergic diseases and asthma in Korea.Purpose: To identify the estimated recent prevalence and 10- year trends in asthma, allergic rhinitis, and atopic dermatitis among the Korean population from 2008 to 2017.Methods: This nationwide cross-sectional survey (Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey) over 10 years (2008–2017) examined representative samples of the Korean population (n=85,006) including 2,131 infants, 4,352 preschool children, 12,919 school-age children, 44,200 adults, and 21,404 elderly adults.Results: In the 2016 to 2017 population, the estimated prevalence of asthma was 0.9% in infants, 2.3% in preschool children, 4.1% in school-age children, 2.3% in adults, and 4.1% in the elderly. The estimated prevalence of allergic rhinitis was 9.0%, 20.2%, 27.6%, 17.1%, and 6.9%, respectively. The estimated prevalence of atopic dermatitis was 5.9%, 11.3%, 14.6%, 3.9%, and 1.6%, respectively. Ten-year trends revealed a significant decrease in asthma prevalence in infants, preschool children, and the elderly. and in atopic dermatitis prevalence in infants and preschool children (<i>P</i><0.05 for all trends). Furthermore, 10-year trends demonstrated a significant increase in allergic rhinitis prevalence in school-age children, adults, and the elderly, and in atopic dermatitis prevalence in school-age children and the elderly (<i>P</i><0.05 for all trends).Conclusion: These results improve our understanding of the age-stratified epidemiology of allergic diseases in Korea and suggest the need for the development of tailored and precise strategies to prevent allergic diseases in different age groups.

Abstract: In general, the importance of sense of smell gets little regards from people. This eventually leads to disorders and injuries which impair or terminate the physiological functions and capabilities of the nasal organs. Some of the commonly observed disorders are allergic rhinitis, nasal polyps, sinusitis, and epistaxis. One of the groups that requires health services the most is the senior citizens. This study was aimed to obtain an overview of nasal health among the elderly at Balai Pelayanan Sosial Lanjut Usia Terlantar Senja Cerah Manado. This was an observational descriptive study with a cross-sectional design. The results showed that there were 31 elderly people as subjects; 3% had masses in the left and right nasal cavities and 3% had narrowing of left nasal cavity. Concha examination revealed that 3% of elderly had hyperemia and edema. Mucous examination showed that 3% of elderly had hyperemia. Secrete examination found 3% of elderly had mucoid secretion. Moreover, septal deviation was found in 6% of elderly and post-nasal drip was found in 3% of elderly. Conclusion: Most elderly at Balai Pelayanan Sosial Lanjut Usia Terlantar Senja Cerah Manado had good nasal health.Keywords: nasal health, nasal examination Abstrak: Peran indra penghiduan kurang mendapat perhatian khusus dari masyarakat hingga pada akhirnya timbulnya gangguan atau cidera yang dapat menghilangkan kemampuan dan fungsi fisiologis dari organ hidung. Beberapa kelainan pada hidung yang sering ditemukan antara lain rinitis alergi, polip hidung, sinusitis, dan epistaksis. Salah satu kelompok masyarakat yang paling membutuhkan pelayanan kesehatan ialah penduduk lanjut usia. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui gambaran kesehatan hidung pada lansia di Balai Pelayanan Sosial Lanjut Usia Terlantar Senja Cerah Manado. Jenis penelitian ialah deskriptif observasional dengan desain potong lintang. Hasil penelitian mendapatkan 31 subyek lanjut usia. Hasil pemeriksaan menunjukkan dari 31 subyek tersebut, terdapat massa di kavum nasi kanan dan kiri sebesar 3%, kavum nasi kiri sempit sebesar 3%. Hasil pemeriksaan konka, ditemukan edema dan hiperemis sebesar 3%. Pemeriksaan mukosa ditemukan keadaan hiperemis sebesar 3%. Hasil pemeriksaan sekret, ditemukan sekret mukoid sebesar 3%. Pemeriksaan septum ditemukan deviasi sebesar 6%. Post nasal drip ditemukan sebesar 3%. Simpulan: Sebagian besar lansia di Balai Pelayanan Sosial Lanjut Usia Terlantar Senja Cerah Manado menunjukkan kesehatan hidung yang terbilang baik.Kata kunci: kesehatan hidung, pemeriksaan fisik hidung

Background Although a significant number of the clinical features and pathophysiologic mechanisms of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) have been described, only a few studies have been published on characterization of CRS in the field of aging. Objective We investigated the prevalence and risk factors of CRS in elderly (≥65 years old) Koreans using large-scale nationwide epidemiological data and compared the risk factors of elderly with those of younger adult participants (19–64 years old). Methods Data from 25 529 participants who completed the 2008–2012 Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were analyzed. Diagnosis of CRS was done according to the EP3OS 2012 guideline for epidemiologic study. Risk factors of CRS were compared in the aspects of sociodemographics, general health behaviors, clinical characteristics, and comorbidities of participants. Results The prevalence of CRS was significantly higher in 5590 elderly than in 19 939 younger adults (6.55% vs 5.69%; P = .016. Some variables of socioeconomic status and mental health in the adult group were associated with increased risk of CRS but did not show association in the elderly group. We observed a significant association between CRS prevalence and comorbid allergic rhinitis, asthma, and atopic dermatitis in both groups ( P < .05). However, in the elderly group, the associations were significantly weaker with regard to allergic rhinitis ( P-interaction = .03) and asthma ( P-interaction = .002). Conclusion These results suggest that elderly populations have distinct pathophysiology and clinical presentations from adult CRS, and management for elderly patients with CRS may require different or additional therapeutic approaches.
