Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Data for food allergy analysis was combined with three years of the respondents’ health survey data and food purchasing data. The data were divided into subsets according to the presence or absence of allergic rhinitis and rash. A total of 8107 subjects were analyzed, and the sum total of person-days was 635,486. Sixteen foods subject to allergy labeling were included in the food analysis data. Correlation coefficients were calculated and time-series analysis and generalized estimating equation(GEE) were performed. Different foods were identified by the different analytical procedures. GEE analysis showed that no foods were associated with allergic incidents in the summertime among the subjects with non-allergic rhinitis, suggesting that rashes that developed in the springtime occurred in the presence or absence of allergic rhinitis. We used data linking food purchases with symptoms to examine approaches for identifying causes of allergies with various statistical methods.
