The Children’s Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ) and the International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood (ISAAC) questionnaire were respectively used to evaluate the sleep quality, allergic rhinitis and asthma. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to analyze the correlation of sleep quality, outdoor activities and their combination with children’s asthma and allergic rhinitis.Results: The overall prevalence of asthma and allergic rhinitis in our sampled children were 10.2% and 17.6%, respectively. Poor sleep quality (asthma: aOR, 1.45; 95% CI: 1.23 to 1.73; allergic rhinitis: aOR, 1.16; 95% CI: 1.03 to 1.31) and low outdoor activity (asthma: aOR, 1.30; 95% CI: 1.14 to 1.49, allergic rhinitis: aOR, 1.18; 95% CI: 1.07 to 1.32) were separately associated with higher risk of asthma and allergic rhinitis, and when the two were superimposed, an additive effect (asthma: aOR, 1.76; 95% CI: 1.30 to 2.39; allergic rhinitis: aOR, 1.46; 95% CI: 1.17 to 1.82) was revealed. These associations were independent of sleep duration, but being stronger in sleep sufficiency group. And after stratification by gender, premature birth and family history of allergy, similar associations were validated in general.Conclusion: Poor sleep quality and low levels of outdoor activity, when combined, have a stronger association with asthma and allergic rhinitis than each factor independently, and this relationship is not influenced by sleep duration. Our findings highlight the need for public health interventions that simultaneously address multiple lifestyle factors to reduce the risk of allergic diseases.Keywords: asthma, allergic rhinitis, sleep quality, physical activity
