Table 4. Factors associated with allergic rhinitis (n=313).
Values are expressed as frequency (n), percentage (%), odds ratio (OR), and adjusted odds ratio (aOR) with 95% confidence intervals. Chi-square test (χ² )was used for bivariate comparisons. p-values <0.05 were considered statistically significant.
