Abstract

Aim: To investigate the influence of early-life factors (Season of birth, premature birth and breastfeeding) on the age at myopia onset.

Methods: A total of 331 myopic students aged 18 years or above were recruited from one medical university in Wenzhou, China. Questionnaires were administered to collect data on age at myopia onset, early-life factors, and vision hygiene habits. Participants underwent noncycloplegic autorefraction. Generalized Linear Model was used to analyse the influencing factors of the age at myopia onset, early life factors as independent variables, spherical equivalent, parental myopia and eye hygiene habits as confounding factors into the generalized linear model.

Results: In this study, the mean spherical equivalent (SE) of myopic university students was -4.55±2.19 D, and the mean age at myopia onset was 13.31±2.64 years old. Subjects born in the summer had a younger age at myopia onset (β=-1.79, P=0.001); subjects born prematurely tended to have a younger age at myopia onset (β=-1.50, P=0.011); and breastfeeding was not statistically associated with the age at myopia onset.

Conclusion: Season of birth and premature birth were associated with age at myopia onset, and children born in the summer and born prematurely had a younger age at myopia onset.

早期生活因素与近视发病年龄的关系:基于中国成人样本的研究
目的:探讨早期生活因素(出生季节、早产和母乳喂养)对近视发病年龄的影响。方法:从温州一所医科大学招募18岁及以上近视学生331名。通过问卷调查收集近视发病年龄、早期生活因素和视力卫生习惯的数据。参与者接受非睫状体麻痹性自屈光。采用广义线性模型,将近视发病年龄、早期生活因素作为自变量、球形当量、父母近视和眼卫生习惯作为混杂因素纳入广义线性模型。结果:本研究中,近视大学生的平均球当量(SE)为-4.55±2.19 D,平均近视发病年龄为13.31±2.64岁。夏季出生的受试者近视发病年龄较低(β=-1.79, P=0.001);早产儿近视发病年龄倾向于较年轻(β=-1.50, P=0.011);母乳喂养与近视发病年龄没有统计学上的联系。结论:出生季节和早产与近视发病年龄有关,夏季出生和早产儿童近视发病年龄较低。
