Background: There are increasing evidence of relationships between allergy related disease such as asthma, atopic dermatitis and hay fever and suicide ideation. However little is known about association between severity and comorbidity of allergy related disease with suicide ideation.
Objectives: To investigate the prevalence of suicide ideation among adolescents with allergy related disease such as asthma, atopic dermatitis and hay fever, and examine the association between allergy related disease and suicidal ideation among adolescents in South Korea.
Methodology: Data is based on Korean Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey (2011~2013) which is a cross-sectional study containing 107,517 Korean middle and high school students who diagnosed with allergy related disease. We used the weights, strata and primary sampling unit information provided by the public use dataset to compute descriptive statistics and logistic regressions. Computations were done with SPSS version 20.0
Results: 70.1%, 25.5%, 4.5% of adolescents reported having been diagnosed with allergy related disease suffered from one, two and three of allergy related diseases, respectively. Socio-demographic factors were adjusted as control variables. Students who have comorbidity of allergy related diseases were more likely to have suicide ideation (two allergy related diseases OR=1.07, 95% CI, 1.03-1.12; three allergy related diseases OR=1.18, 95% CI, 1.07-1.29). Students with more severity of disease were more likely to have suicide ideation. Odds ratio for students who were absent one to three days from school because of allergy related disease was 1.33 (95% CI 1.21-1.46), and odds ratio for those who were absent more than four days from school was 1.63 (95% CI 1.38-1.92).
Conclusions: Given that adolescents’ severity and comorbidity of allergy related disease were clearly associated with suicide ideation, suicide prevention programs for adolescents with allergy related disease should be improved by strategically approaching the severity and comorbidity of disease.
