Abstract

The allergen effect that is due to the quality changes of the atmosphere can locally be observed in the respiratory tracts. The current research is focused on the rhinitis allergica which negatively influences the quality of life of the individual as well as it hinders the school activity and work (Szeinbach et al., 2007, 2005). The basic problem is that the morbidity of the allergy induced respiratory disease has been growing for almost 50 years in Hungary and, as a consequence, the social economical burden has also been growing. The areal pattern of the morbidity of rhinitis allergica in Hungary is based on the database of the Korányi Institute of Tuberculosis and Pulmonology. The aim of study is to determine the areal differences of Hungary between 1999 and 2007. The areal difference is examined through regional inequality indices.
