N2 - In recent years, prevalence rate of children's allergic diseases gradually increases, children's health problems are not optimistic. Epidemiological cross-sectional survey method was used in this study. 120 school-age children of Grade Four and Five were selected to do the questionnaire on living environment and health problem in Dalian. Then 10 residents were selected to detect indoor environmental information. This study explored the correlation of living environment and children's allergic diseases by some hypothesis testing methods and analyzed exposure levels of various pollutants. Living in the surrounding road, re-decoration, updating ventilation equipment, moist sensation, milk feeding in lactation, usually light sleep were risk factors of certain allergic diseases. SVOC, planktonic fungi, accumulated fungi had a positive effect on disease group, while adherent fungi had a negative effect. The average level of exposure of diseases group is higher than control groups.
