Background: Allergic rhinitis is a common ailment with rising trend and worldwide prevalence of some 400 million. Methods: This prospective randomized crosssectional study was done at the Department of Otorhinolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery, Tribhuvan University, Teaching Hospital, Kathmandu, Nepal from June 2016 to August 2017. They were randomly assigned to two groups by lottery method. Group A received mometasone furoate intranasal spray and Group B received oral montelukast for a total duration of one month. Prior to starting medication and one month after medications, total nasal symptom score was documented. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS version 18.Results: Total of 126 patients between 16 to 52 years were enrolled in the study. The mean duration of symptoms was 3.93 years. The mean value of serum total IgE was 833.49 IU/ml. The mean pre and post medication score for mometasone furoate intranasal spray group was 16.32 and 5.44 respectively, which was significant. Similarly, the mean pre and post medication score for oral montelukast group was 15.24 and 7.87 respectively which was also found to be significant. Comparing the means of scores for both the groups, mometasone furoate was found to be more effective than oral montelukast.Conclusions: Both mometasone furoate intranasal spray and oral montelukast were effective in the treatment of patient with allergic rhinitis. Oral montelukast can therefore be used as a first line treatment for patients with allergic rhinitis.

Aim: Bisphenol-A (BPA) is an endocrine disrupting compound and may exacerbate or induce allergic diseases. To the best of our knowledge, there is little evidence regarding the effects of BPA exposure on allergic rhinitis (AR) in children. In the present study, we sought to examine whether exposure to BPA in children is associated with AR. Methods: This study was designed as a case controlled clinical study. 140 children diagnosed as allergic rhinitis and 140 healthy children as control group were recruited. BPA, interleukin-4, interleukin-13, total IgE and interferon-gamma levels were determined. Skin prick tests were performed in patient group. Total nasal symptom score and ARIA classification were used to predict disease severity. Results: Serum IL-4, IgE and BPA levels of children with allergic rhinitis were found to be significantly higher than the control group. BPA and IL-4 levels were significantly higher in moderate to severe-persistent group. There was a positive correlation between total nasal symptom scores and Bisphenol A levels in children with allergic rhinitis. Conclusions: The present study is the first to observe statistically significant relationship between BPA concentrations and allergic rhinitis in children. Also increased levels of BPA are associated with disease severity.

Abstract Objective: Perennial allergic rhinitis (PAR) is clinically defined as an inflammatory condition of the nose characterised by nasal obstruction, sneezing, itching, or rhinorrhea, occurring for an hour or more on most days throughout the year. The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of acupuncture treatment for PAR. Methods: 76 subjects were enrolled with inclusion criteria and randomly divided into the acupuncture group (AG) and drug group (DG) based on Zelen’s design. In AG, Yintang (EX-HN3), LI20 (bilateral), LI11 (left), LI4 (left), ST36 (bilateral) were selected as primary acupoints, and adjunct acupoints were added based on syndrome differentiation. Acupuncture treatment for four weeks was performed once every two days. In DG, Desloratadine Citrate Disodium tablet was administrated orally once every day for four weeks. The variations of total nasal symptom score (TNSS) and overall non-nasal symptom score (TNNSS) were tested within three days before, at Week-4 during, and at Week-4 (follow-up) after the treatment. Results: Thirty-two subjects in the AG and 38 subjects in the DG completed the trial. The differences between TNSS and TNNSS scales in the same groups showed a statistical difference (P<0.05) before, during, and after the treatment. The statistic differences between TNSS and TNNSS in those two groups were not obtained (P＞0.05) before and after the treatment. The differences in those two groups during the follow-up visit were statistically different (P<0.05). Conclusion: Acupuncture could effectively control the nasal and systemic symptoms of PAR, and its effect was more persistent than the administration of Desloratadine Citrate Disodium.

Background. To study efficacy and safety of Dezrinit (mometasone furoate, metered dose nasal spray, 200 pg/day) in comparison with Nasonex® (mometasone furoate, metered dose nasal spray, 200 pg/day) upon administration for 14 days in adult patients with seasonal allergic rhinitis. Materials and methods. A total of 141 patients were enrolled into the study at 8 study centers in the RF, of which 134 patients were randomized: 67 patients into the experimental group (Dezrinit) and 67 patients into the comparison group (Nasonex®). patients were randomized to receive treatment either with Dezrinit or Nasonex®. Efficacy was assessed based on reflective Total Nasal Symptom Score (rTNSS) and instantaneous Total Nasal Symptom Score (iTNSS); reflective Total Ocular Symptom Score (rTOSS) and instantaneous Total Ocular Symptom Score (iTOSS). Overall proportion of patients who responded to treatment was evaluated according to overall assessment of treatment efficacy both by a patient and by an investigator. AEs were reported for safety assessment. Results. After 14 days of treatment a marked improvement of symptoms was observed in both groups based on all assessed scores. Mean change (SD) in rTNSS from baseline was -11,91 (4,625) scores and -11,64 (4,58) scores in the experimental and comparison groups, respectively (within group differences, p

AbstractBackgroundEosinophils are the principal effector cells involved in the pathogenesis of allergic rhinitis. Cell numbers increase in non-allergic rhinitis patients with eosinophilia, aspirin hypersensitivity and nasal polyposis, as well as in allergic rhinitis patients. Exfoliative nasal cytology can be used in the differential diagnosis of allergic rhinitis.ObjectiveTo evaluate nasal eosinophilia in nasal smears of patients with mild, persistent and intermittent allergic rhinitis.MethodsThe study comprised 60 patients with allergic rhinitis and 20 healthy volunteers. The patients were divided into intermittent and persistent allergic rhinitis groups. Nasal smear status, eosinophil numbers and Total Nasal Symptom Scores were compared.ResultsNasal smear results were pathological in 40 of 60 allergic rhinitis patients, which was significantly higher than the rate in controls. The mean nasal eosinophilia score was significantly higher in the intermittent allergic rhinitis than in the persistent allergic rhinitis group (p= 0.029). There was a positive correlation between nasal eosinophilia score and Total Nasal Symptom Score (r = 0.652;p< 0.05) in persistent allergic rhinitis and intermittent allergic rhinitis patients.ConclusionThe nasal smear test is inexpensive, objective and simple to perform, and should be part of the diagnostic investigation.

Latar belakang: Penyakit rinitis alergi (RA) banyak dijumpai dan memberi dampak negatif terhadap produktivitas, kualitas hidup, gangguan tidur, aktivitas di luar rumah, serta gangguan sekolah pada anak. Vitamin E bekerja sebagai antioksidan pada membran sel dan berikatan dengan radikal bebas dengan cara menghambat peroksidasi Poly Unsaturated Fatty Acid (PUFA). Tujuan: Mengetahui pengaruh vitamin E terhadap jumlah eosinofil mukosa hidung dan perbaikan klinis pada penderita rinitis alergi persisten sedang berat. Metode: Menggunakan Randomized Clinical Trial, double blind, pre and post control group dengan perlakuan pemberian terapi semprot hidung triamcinolone acetonide, cetirizine 10 mg, dan vitamin E 400IU selama 4 minggu. Dilakukan penilaian Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) dan Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS), serta pemeriksaan eosinofil mukosa hidung pada awal dan 4 minggu setelah perlakuan. Hasil: Didapatkan perbedaan bermakna antara jumlah eosinofil mukosa hidung sebelum dan sesudah pemberian vitamin E pada kelompok perlakuan (p=<0,001). Penurunan jumlah eosinofil mukosa hidung lebih besar dan bermakna pada kelompok perlakuan dibandingkan dengan kelompok kontrol (p=<0,001). Didapat perbaikan kualitas hidup berdasarkan perbaikan nilai VAS dan TNSS yang bermakna setelah perlakuan pada kelompok kontrol maupun perlakuan (p=<0,001), serta didapatkan perbaikan kualitas hidup berdasarkan nilai VAS dan TNSS pada kedua kelompok dengan selisih nilai perbaikan gejala yang lebih besar pada kelompok perlakuan, namun dari perhitungan statistik tidak didapatkan perbedaan yang bermakna. Kesimpulan: Vitamin E 400IU menurunkan jumlah eosinofil mukosa hidung secara bermakna pada pasien rinitis alergi persisten sedang berat. Perbaikan nilai TNSS pada penggunaan vitamin E 400IU lebih baik dibandingkan subjek yang mendapat plasebo, walaupun tidak berbeda secara bermakna.Kata kunci: rinitis alergi, Vitamin E, Total Nasal Symptom Score ABSTRACT Background: Allergic rhinitis (AR) is an allergic disease frequently found and has a negative impact on productivity, quality of life, sleep disorder, outdoors activities, and school disruption in children. Vitamin E works as an antioxidant in cell membranes through binding free radicals by inhibiting peroxidation of Poly Unsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFA). Purpose: To find out the effect of vitamin E administration on nasal mucosa eosinophil counts and the clinical improvement in patients with moderate severe persistent AR. Methods: A double blind randomized clinical trial, pre and post control group, given therapy of triamcinolone acetonide nasal spray, cetirizine 10 mg, and vitamin E 400 IU orally for 4 weeks. Evaluation by Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS), as well as nasal mucosal eosinophils count at baseline and 4 weeks after treatment. Results: There was a significant difference on the number of nasal mucosal eosinophils before and after vitamin E administration in the treatment group (p = <0.001). A greater and more significant decrease in the number of nasal mucosal eosinophils in the treatment group compared to control group (p = <0.001). Significant improvement of VAS and TNSS after treatment in the control and treatment groups (p = <0.001) and quality of life improvement based on VAS and TNSS values in both control and treatment groups, but the statistical calculations showed no significant differences between the two groups. Conclusion: Vitamin E 400IU significantly reduce the number of nasal mucosal eosinophils in patients with moderate severe persistent AR.

Introduction: The role of virgin coconut oil in the treatment of allergic rhinitis is controversial. Thus, the aim of the present study is to determine the effects of virgin coconut oil ingestion, in addition to standard medications, on allergic rhinitis. We also studied the side effects of consumption of virgin coconut oil. Methods: Fifty two subjects were equally divided into test and control groups. All subjects received a daily dose of 10mg of loratadine for 28 days. The test group was given 10ml of virgin coconut oil three times a day in addition to loratadine. The symptoms of allergic rhinitis were scored at the beginning and end of the study. Results:, the symptom score were divided into nasal and non-nasal symptom scores. Sneezing score showed a significant difference, however the score was more in control group than test group, indicating that improvement in symptom was more in control group. The rest of the nasal symptom and non-nasal symptom score showed no significant difference between test and control groups. Approximately 58% of the test subjects developed side effects from consumption of virgin coconut oil, mainly gastrointestinal side effects. Conclusion: In the present study, ingestion of virgin coconut oil does not improve the overall and individual symptoms of allergic rhinitis, furthermore it has side effects.
