Resumo
Objetivo: Embora o objetivo da Rede Global de Asma (GAN) seja entender o estado atual do eczema atópico (EA), sua prevenção e melhoria geral em seu manejo, particularmente em países de baixa e média renda, ela permite a avaliação de outras doenças alérgicas, como a asma (A) e a rinite alérgica (RA). Nosso objetivo foi determinar a prevalência de EA e fatores associados em adolescentes e seus pais/responsáveis. Método: Adolescentes (13-14 anos; n = 1.058) e seus pais/responsáveis (média = 42,1 anos; n = 896) residentes na cidade de Uruguaiana, RS, sul do Brasil, responderam aos questionários padrão do GAN. Resultados: A prevalência de EA em adolescentes foi de 8%, e a de formas graves foi de 1,3%, com predomínio no sexo feminino (67,8%). Nos adultos, a prevalência de EA foi de 3,1%. Alguns fatores de risco associados ao EA em adolescentes incluem o consumo de azeite ou de margarina. Em adultos, a exposição à umidade e manchas no passado e atual, uso de cigarros eletrônicos/narguilé, e consumo de outros laticínios foram associados a risco, e o consumo de arroz a proteção. Conclusões: A prevalência de EA em adolescentes é alta e predomina em mulheres, assim como o diagnóstico médico de EA em adultos residentes em Uruguaiana. Fatores ambientais, especialmente hábitos alimentares e umidade no domicílio, foram associados aos achados em ambos os grupos.

Abstract
Objective: Although the purpose of the Global Asthma Network (GAN) is to understand the current status of atopic eczema (AE), including prevention and general improvement in its management, particularly in low- and middle-income countries, it allows the assessment of other allergic diseases such as asthma and allergic rhinitis. Our objective was to determine the prevalence of AE and associated factors in adolescents and their parents/guardians. Method: Adolescents (13-14 years old; n = 1058) and their parents/guardians (mean = 42.1 years old; n = 896) living in the city of Uruguaiana, RS, southern Brazil, completed the standard GAN questionnaires. Results: The prevalence of AE in adolescents was 8%, and that of severe forms was 1.3%, with predominance in females (67.8%). In adults, the prevalence of AE was 3.1%. Some risk factors associated with AE in adolescents include the consumption of oil or margarine. In adults, exposure to moisture and stains in the past and currently, use of electronic cigarettes/ hookahs, and consumption of other dairy products were identified as risk factors, while rice consumption was considered a protective factor. Conclusions: The prevalence of AE in adolescents is high and the disease predominates in women, as well as the medical diagnosis of AE in adults living in Uruguaiana. Environmental factors, especially eating habits and moisture at home, were associated with the findings in both groups.
