Rezumat: Scopul studiului este de a analiza efectul comun al poluantilor atmosferici biologici (polen) si chimici, precum si variabilele meteorologice cu privire la internarile pacientilor cu probleme respiratorii, pentru diferite grupe de varsta in diferite anotimpuri, din regiunea Szeget din sudul Ungariei. Setul de date folosit este unic, in sensul ca include toate cele trei categorii. Variabilele meteorologice si poluantii chimici atmosferici s-au colectat in statia de monitorizare situata in centrul orasului Szeget.

Abstract: The aim of this study is to analyse the joint effect of biological (pollen) and chemical air pollutants, as well as meteorological variables on the hospital admissions of respiratory-problem patients of different age groups during different seasons in the Szeged region in Southern Hungary. The data set applied is unique in the sense that includes all of the above three categories of influencing variables. Meteorological variables and chemical air pollutants were collected in a monitoring station located in the inner city area of Szeged
