The included participants are between the ages of 5 and 44 and they reside in urban areas. The information was collected by phone.Results: 3200 participants were surveyed: 51.8% were women, 37.6% were between the ages of 5 and 19, and 62.4%, were between the ages of 20 and 44. The global prevalence of symptoms of allergic rhinitis was of 20.5%; the most frequent symptoms were sneezing (58.5%) and nasal congestion (51.4%). Overall, 44.3% of the participants had a family history of allergies. Allergic rhinitis was more frequent in women; the prevalence was of 22.3% in the group of participants between the ages of 5 and 19, and of 19.4% in the group of participants between the ages of 20 and 40 (p=0.0545); 63.8% of participants with symptoms did not have a medical diagnosis.Conclusions: The results of this first cross-sectional national survey have confirmed the high prevalence of self-reported symptoms of allergic rhinitis in adults and children in Argentina, particularly in women.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.29262\/ram.v66i1.543","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,23]],"date-time":"2019-04-23T20:07:49Z","timestamp":1556050069000},"page":"55-64","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Cross-sectional survey about the prevalence of allergic rhinitis in Argentina: Study PARA","Encuesta transversal sobre la prevalencia de rinitis al\u00e9rgica en Argentina: el estudio PARA"],"prefix":"10.29262","volume":"66","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9864-0783","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Daniel","family":"V\u00e1zquez","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9559-6756","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Iris","family":"Medina","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0336-6983","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Georgina","family":"Logusso","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1178-4299","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sergio","family":"Arias","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8060-516X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gabriel","family":"Gattolin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6936-5599","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Claudio","family":"Parisi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"11808","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,4]]},"container-title":["Revista Alergia M\u00e9xico"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/revistaalergia.mx\/ojs\/index.php\/ram\/article\/download\/543\/2455","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/revistaalergia.mx\/ojs\/index.php\/ram\/article\/download\/543\/1019","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/revistaalergia.mx\/ojs\/index.php\/ram\/article\/download\/543\/956","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/revistaalergia.mx\/ojs\/index.php\/ram\/article\/download\/543\/2455","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,9]],"date-time":"2025-04-09T15:59:34Z","timestamp":1744214374000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/revistaalergia.mx\/ojs\/index.php\/ram\/article\/view\/543"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,4]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,4]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.29262\/ram.v66i1.543","relation":{},"ISSN":["2448-9190","0002-5151"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2448-9190","type":"electronic"},{"value":"0002-5151","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,4]]}}}
