The incidence of moderate persistent asthma was significantly higher in children with AR (37,5 percent) than without AR (14,0 percent) (p 0,05). percentalso found that the incidence of moderate persistent asthma was significantly higher in children with moderate-severe AR (48,3 percent) than children with mild AR (22,8 percent) (p 0,05). The value of FEV1, FEF25- 75 was significantly lower than in moderate- severe AR than mild AR (91,61 + or - 16,l1) and (71,75 + or - 21,34), p 0,05).
