      The impact of passive smoking on the frequency of respiratory infections in preschool children. (English)
    • Abstract:
      The aim of this study was to determine whether passive smoking increases the frequency of respiratory infections in children. A retrospective cohort study was conducted at Dr Mira Pavlov primary health care pediatric clinics in Sućidar, Split, during the 2011- 2013 period. The study included 203 preschool children brought to pediatric clinics by parents for medical examination. Children were divided into two groups: 114 children whose household members smoked and 89 children whose household members did not smoke. We analyzed the frequency of respiratory infections in children during the 2011-2013 period. All necessary data were obtained by a questionnaire fi lled out by parents and from the children' electronic medical records. The diff erence in the frequency of bronchitis between the children whose household members smoked and whose household members did not smoke was at the border of statistical signifi cance (P=0.052). The number of bronchitis cases was statistically signifi cantly higher in the group of children whose household members smoked at home compared to the group of children whose household members did not smoke (P=0.008). The number of cigarettes smoked per day at home correlated statistically signifi cantly with the number of bronchitis cases in children (P=0.003). Maternal smoking statistically signifi cantly increased the number of pneumonias in children compared to paternal smoking (P=0.001). Children with allergic diseases whose household members smoked did not have a statistically signifi cantly higher number of respiratory infections compared to children with allergic diseases whose household members did not smoke.

    • Abstract:
      Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je utvrditi povećava li pasivno pušenje učestalost infekcija dišnog sustava u djece. Provedeno je retrospektivno kohortno istraživanje, u razdoblju od 2011. do 2013. godine, u pedijatrijskoj ambulanti primarne zdravstvene zaštite "Dr. Mire Pavlov" u četvrti Sućidar u Splitu. U istraživanje je uključeno 203-je djece predškolske dobi, koju su roditelji dovodili u pedijatrijsku ambulantu na pregled. Djecu smo podijelili u dvije skupine: skupinu od 114-ero djece čiji su članovi kućanstva bili pušači i onu od 89-ero djece kojoj su članovi kućanstva bili nepušači. Analizirali smo učestalost infekcija dišnog sustava djece u razdoblju od 2011. do 2013. Sve potrebne podatke dobili smo od roditelja koji su ispunili upitnike i uvidom u elektronsku medicinsku dokumentaciju. Razlika u učestalosti bronhitisa između skupine djece čiji su ukućani bili pušači i čiji su ukućani bili nepušači bila je na granici statističke značajnosti (P = 0,052). Broj bronhitisa je bio statistički značajno veći u skupini djece čiji su ukućani pušili u domu u odnosu na onu kojoj ukućani nisu pušili (P = 0,008). Broj dnevno popušenih cigareta u domu statistički je značajno korelirao s brojem bronhitisa u djece (P = 0,003). Pušenje majke statistički je značajno povećavalo broj pneumonija u djece u odnosu na samo očevo pušenje (P = 0,001). Djeca s alergijskim bolestima kojoj su ukućani bili pušači nisu imala statistički značajno veći broj infekcija dišnog sustava u usporedbi s djecom s alergijskim bolestima čiji su ukućani bili nepušači.
