Summary

Allergic diseases like asthma, rhinitis, conjunctivitis and dermatitis are very frequent in athletes, even if those complaining allergic symptoms do not always receive a medical diagnosis. Many athletes already start competitive sport activities in pediatric age, but allergy screening tests are usually not performed when assessing eligibility to sport practice. Therefore, the objective of the present study is assessing the predictive ability of the Allergy Questionnaire for Athletes (AQUA©), pediatric version, to predict the atopic status in young athletes.
