Five of the 7 schools are located in the rural area and the remaining 2 schools are located in the urban area.The following results were obtained;1) Nasal secretion was diagnosed to be abnormal in 56.5% of the children, including serous in 17.6%, mucous in 25.5% and purulent in 13.4%.2) The nasal smear test showed massive infiltration of neutrophils in 22.9%, eosinophils in 5.8% and both cells in 3.8%.3) X-ray examination of the paranasal sinuses was performed in 347 children from 4 primary schools (Two in the rural and the other two in the urban areas). Abnormal findings indicating paranasal sinusitis were detected in 179 cases.
