Meta-analysis and cost-effectiveness analysisof intranasal corticosteroid treatment in allergic rhinitiswith ocular symptoms

Intranasal corticosteroid (INCS) has a beneficial effect on ocular symptoms in allergic rhinitis (AR). To our knowledge, the cost-effectiveness of available INCS for AR with ocular symptoms is yet to be demonstrated.

Inhibitory effect of Zingiber cassumunar Roxb. (Phlai)on nasal cytokine productions and eosinophilic recruitment in patients with allergic rhinitis

Zingiber cassumunar Roxb. (Phlai) has been used for the treatment of allergies including allergic rhinitis (AR). Although the anti-histamine effects have been reported, assessment of nasal cytokine and eosinophil production had not been investigated.

The natural history of childhood-onset nonallergic rhinitis; a long-term follow-up study

Non-allergic rhinitis (NAR) is characterized by symptoms of nasal inflammation without allergic sensitization. The long-term outcome of NAR in children is poorly defined.

Mucosal brushings for nasal specific IgE to predict house dust mite driven allergic rhinitis

Skin prick testing and serological identification of allergen specific immunoglobulin E (spIgE) are standard tests for allergic rhinitis but can only identify systemic responses. In contrast, nasal allergen challenge (NAC), directly assess localized nasal mucosal reactivity, but is time consuming. Identification of spIgE from nasal brushings (nasal spIgE) is an alternative technique.

Comorbidities & burden of disease in atopic dermatitis

Atopic dermatitis is associated with an increased frequency of other atopic & allergic manifestations, including asthma in 10% to 30% of cases depending on age, allergic rhinitis, food allergies, eosinophilic diseases, and allergic conjunctivitis. The comorbidities outside the atopic march are overall less frequent than in psoriasis.

House dust mite allergen immunotherapy for monosensitized versus polysensitized patients with allergic rhinitis: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Most patients with allergic rhinitis are polysensitized. The efficacy of house dust mite (HDM) allergen immunotherapy (AIT) compared between monosensitized and polysensitized patients remains limited.

An online survey of clinical practice for allergic rhinitis among the Asia-Pacific representatives

Physicians’ knowledge and practice which are consistent with evidence-based guidelines can improve allergic rhinitis (AR) patients’ care. Compared with western countries, the available literature about Asian doctors’ perceptions and clinical practices regarding Allergic Rhinitis and its Impacts on Asthma (ARIA) guidelines is limited.

Maintained disease control and steroid-sparing effect of subcutaneous immunotherapy in allergic rhinitis and asthma

Allergen immunotherapy is the only currently available treatment strategy that modifies the immune response to the causative allergen and induces clinical improvement and a steroid-sparing effect.
