Do So

The house dust mites are considered to be an allergen source and a main cause of allergic rhinitis and allergic asthma. House dust mites, their feces and other allergens which they produce are usually major constituents of house dust. Any stir in the air causes settled dust, and therefore allergen source found in it, to become airborne and thus easier to be inhaled by people, possibly causing different kinds of allergic reactions (sneezing, for example). In this paper, the correlation between common home activities (walking around, bed making, vacuuming etc.) and airborne dust concentration is examined. In order to do so, a novel Internet of things architecture is proposed that is capable of establishing that correlation. This proposed system not only collects dust concentration but it also visualizes it in an easy to understand and interpret way.

Health Complications

Allergies in dogs have become a relatively frequent topic of discussion in veterinary surgeries. Many dogs, both purebred and of mixed breeds, are diagnosed for allergies. Allergies have many causes, from genetic predisposition to the environmental conditions in which the animal lives. Allergies in dogs are troublesome because they can lead to serious health complications when diagnosed late or left untreated. The results of the study support the hypothesis that the percentage of allergies to individual allergens varied by region (Tab. 4). Differences were observed in the case of Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus and Dermatophagoides farinae house dust mites, Acarus siro, and Tyrophagus. The remaining allergens caused allergic reactions in similar percentages of dogs from northern, central and southern Poland.

High Prevalence

Cross-reactivity to proteins is the issue of the day due to the severity of clinical symptoms, high prevalence of this phenomenon and the absence of preventive measures . Cross-reactivity is found in pollen, house dust, insects, food allergy, helminthes etc. Multiple studies have confirmed the important role of the protein tropomyosin in the development of sensitization to house dust mites allergens, food allergens and insects. The presence of tropomyosin is detected in the allergen spectrum of many arthropods, in particular insects and crustaceans. The researchers have noted the possibility of development of various cross-allergic reactions to tropomyosin protein. Arthropods are the main type of the Earth’s fauna. Clinical symptoms of allergic reactions to Arthropods differ in severity; this is the issue of studying of the the cross-reactivity to tropomyosin protein.

Ubiquitous Presence

Aeroallergens are one of the most important environmental factors that induce allergic reactions in sensitized population. Pollen grains, molds, house dust mites, and animal dander are of major concern because of their abundant sources and ubiquitous presence in environments. Identifying the allergens in geographical areas plays an important role in the diagnosis; prevention and management of allergic disorders. Here, we discussed the most common aeroallergens in Iran and suggested appropriate preventive strategies to decrease the morbidity of allergic patients. The sensitivity to the most common aeroallergens affecting Iranian population is summarized in Table 1. Further delineation of these factors is provided below

Prick Test

Beberapa kasus urtikaria pada paparan debu dan diantaranya menghubungkan sensitivitas tungau debu rumah (TDR) dengan urtikaria berdasarkan riwayat pasien dan pemeriksaan uji intradermal. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menentukan korelasi antara kepadatan TDR dan rekurensi urtikaria. Jumlah sampel pada penelitian ini 30 orang. Kepadatan TDR dari tiap kamar sampel dihitung dengan mengumpulkan debu, dan sampel dinilai sensitivitas terhadao TDR dengan pemeriksaan skin prick test (SPT). Diagnosis urtikaria berdasarkan anamnesis, kemudian ditanyaan rekurensinya dalam tiga bulan terakhir. Hasil: Dari 30 peserta, tujuh (23,3%) sampel memiliki kepadatan TDR sedang sementara 23 (76,7%) memiliki kepadatan rendah. Selain itu, 15 sampel positif SPT terhadap alergen TDR. Dari anamnesis, 12 (40%) sampel didiagnosis urtikaria dan diantaranya, 11 orang (91,67%) positif terhadap SPT. Tidak ada sampel yang memiliki rekurensi urtikaria dalam tiga bulan terakhir. Kesimpulan: Meskipun penelitian ini tidak menunjukkan korelasi yang signifikan antara kepadatan TDR dan tingkat kekambuhan urtikaria (p> 0,05), TDR memang bisa memicu eksaserbasi. Penelitian ini membutuhkan penyelidikan lebih lanjut dengan ukuran sampel yang lebih besar.
