    Recurrent respiratory tract infections (RRTIs) significantly impact children's healthcare costs and quality of life.

  • 2

    A 10-year study identified independent predictors of RRTIs in 6,026 children, with 20.4% developing the condition.

  • 3

    Key predictors included allergy history, asthma, vitamin levels, birth weight, passive smoking, and hemoglobin levels.

  • 4

    A personalized nomogram was developed, demonstrating good discrimination and calibration for predicting RRTI risk.

  • 5

    The nomogram may enhance early risk stratification and preventive strategies in pediatric healthcare settings.
