摘要: Abstract Objective: To examine the association between hospitalisations for otitis media and area-level measures of household crowding among children in New Zealand.Methods: Counts hospital admissions by census area unit were offset against population data from 2006 national census. Area-level crowding, exposure to tobacco smoke home, equivalised income individual-level characteristics age sex adjusted for. effect modification ethnicity, three separate poisson models examined total, Māori non-Māori populations.Results: Household was significantly associated with after adjustment all models. Neighbourhoods highest compared lowest proportion crowded homes exhibited incidence rate ratios 1.25 (95%CI 1.12-1.37) total population, 1.59 1.21-2.04) restricted model 1.17 1.06-1.32) model.Conclusions: Otitis are other risk factors this ecological study. The largest increase relative neighbourhood rates cases media.Implications: This study adds weight growing body literature linking infectious disease overcrowding home.Key words: media, pediatrics,
