SYMPTOMS AND HINDRANCES DUE TO PEDIATRIC JCP EVALUATED BY PATIENTS AND THEIR PARENTS
1Department of Otorhinolaryngology, National Mie Hospital.
Background:
It is difficult to know how the children with Japanese cedar pollinosis (JCP) recognize their own symptoms and quality of life (QOL). In addition, the adversely impact of pediatric JCP on the QOL of the parents is not understood. The aim of this study was to investigate the symptoms and troubles due to pediatric JCP evaluated by patients and their parents, and analyze the difference.
Methods:
Twenty-six pair of children (7-15 years of age) with JCP and their parents/grandparents who visited our ENT clinic filled out questionnaire regarding the symptoms and hindrances due to JCP.
Results:
There were significantly correlations between the severity of symptoms evaluated by children and parents/grandparents. The most frequent problem was "rubbing nose and eyes", both in children and parents/grandparents. The children were tended to be troubled by practical problems. The parents/grandparents were tended to be worried about the emotion, sleep and activity in daily life and health condition of their children. The total nasal symptom score was significantly higher in children of parents/grandparents with the anxiety about the health condition than in ones without the anxiety.
Conclusions:
The school age children with JCP can express their symptom appropriately. There is a different tendency in hindrances due to pediatric JCP between in patients and parents/grandparents. It is necessary to develop the QOL questionnaire sheets for children with allergic rhinitis and their parents.

The mesenchymal stem cells differentiate into chondrocytes that form the hyaline cartilage, and later the cartilaginous model of the bone. This model further transforms into a bone. This process is known as endochondral ossification.
