Description
Maneshka Vindesh Karunananda and others checked asthma, allergic rhinitis, and atopic dermatitis among schoolchildren in Sri Lanka, in 2026. Allergic ills are rising among children worldwide, but local rate and risk factors in Sri Lanka were partly documented. Without local numbers, school health and allergy services cannot plan effectively.
Schoolchildren were surveyed for the three problems, with risk factors tested across demographic, green, and family factors. The study provides rate estimates and names the exposures most strongly linked to each illness. Child and public health teams gain a baseline for allergy stopping and care in Sri Lankan schools.
