Frequency of allergic diseases among wrestling and karate trainees
The aim of this study was to evaluate differences in the prevalence of subjects with allergic disorders among 189 Greco-Roman wrestling and 124 karate trainees aged 10-16 years. Data about allergic nasal, asthmatic and skin symptoms, and asthmatic symptoms during exercise were recorded and analyzed with chi-square test. The prevalence of rhinitis and eczema was similar in wrestlers and karateka (rhinitis- 21.2% vs 21% ; eczema- 6.3% vs 4%, P>0.05). The prevalence of asthma was higher in karateka than in wrestlers, but without statistical significance (12.1% vs 6.8%, P=0.11). Allergic diseases were present among analyzed trainees in similar proportion as in general male schoolchildren population of Croatia. Results also indicate that wrestling is a less suitable sport discipline for asthmatics than karate, probably due to higher energy consumption, and greater importance of strength and endurance.
