Pesticide exposure and rhinitis: A cross-sectional study among farmers in Pitsanulok, Thailand.

The results from this large cross-sectional study supports existing literature on the potential effects of pesticides on rhinitis. In addition, the analysis showed that the rhinitis effect might be in fact related to the properties of the types of pesticides rather than individual chemical toxicity. The impact of pesticides on rhinitis should receive more attention from public health and other organizations responsible for the farmers' health.
