Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medical data processing, and in particular to a nasal allergy prevention and management system. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, thanks to improved living standards and widespread access to health knowledge, public health awareness in my country has rapidly increased, and awareness of allergies has also surged. Nasal allergies are common allergic conditions. Although relatively mild in severity, they can cause persistent and adverse impacts on patients' daily lives, work, study, and sleep quality. Due to the environmental impacts of urbanization and industrialization, the incidence of nasal allergies in my country has been increasing year by year. On the one hand, some people live in highly urbanized environments, away from the natural environment. Exposure to plant allergens such as pollen can easily lead to an overreaction of the immune system, resulting in nasal allergy symptoms. On the other hand, pollutants emitted during industrial production, chemical components in interior decoration products, and additives in daily necessities have increased the variety of allergens, contributing to the increased prevalence of nasal allergies. Currently, mainstream serum tests only detect specific IgE antibodies when nasal allergies have progressed to a severe stage. Furthermore, they can only detect a limited range of allergens and are not suitable for the early stages of nasal allergies. Therefore, developing management systems for the early prevention of nasal allergies is a promising research direction.

[0003] Currently, a Chinese invention patent application with application number 202311760428.1 discloses a modeling method for an allergic rhinitis prediction model. The application specifically includes: obtaining medical data of allergic rhinitis cases as a sample set for the neural network model; preprocessing the sample set to obtain a training set for the neural network model; establishing an allergic rhinitis prediction model; using the training set to train the allergic rhinitis prediction model, the allergic rhinitis prediction model includes a first prediction model and a second prediction model, the first prediction model is used to predict allergic rhinitis for subjects aged 0-7 years old, and the second prediction model is used to predict allergic rhinitis for subjects aged 7 years and above; dividing patients into two groups according to age: toddlers and non-toddlers, and establishing two sub-models for these two age groups, and using different training sets to train the two sub-models, thereby improving the scientific nature of the allergic rhinitis model establishment. However, the patient data collected and analyzed in this application only included seven common symptoms, including nasal congestion, nasal itching, sneezing, runny nose, bilateral subungual edema, coughing, and throat itching. The data dimension is insufficient, and the prediction results obtained by analysis are greatly affected by the subjectivity of the test subjects. Summary of the Invention
