Allergic rhinitis affects more than 20% and is responsible for very high direct and indirect costs. Nasal corticosteroids are the principle pharmaceutical option for the treatment of allergic rhinitis. They are more effective than all other therapeutic options and in addition to improving symptoms of allergic rhinitis they also improve quality of life in patients suffering from allergic rhiniti...

Rhinitis and rhinosinusitis (with/without polyposis), either allergic or non-allergic, represent a major medical problem. Their associated comorbidities and relationship with family history have so far been poorly investigated. We assessed these aspects in a large population of patients suffering from rhinosinusal diseases. Clinical history, nasal cytology, allergy testing and direct nasal exam...

UNLABELLED Allergy and asthma can reduce HRQOL as a result of profound physical and psychosocial complications. Most patients with asthma also suffer from rhinitis, which also impairs quality of life. However, the impact of allergic rhinitis on asthmatic patients has not been investigated. OBJECTIVE To assess Quality of life (QOL) in asthmatic patients and assess relative burden of allergic r...

Rhinitis can be divided into allergic and non-allergic rhinitis. Rhinitis, particularly allergic rhinitis, has been shown to be associated with obstructive sleep apnea; a condition characterized by repetitive upper airway obstruction during sleep. Allergic rhinitis increases the risk of developing obstructive sleep apnea by two major mechanisms: 1) increase in airway resistance due to higher na...

BACKGROUND Subclinical spirometric abnormalities may be detected in patients with rhinitis without asthma, proportional to the severity established by ARIA (Allergic Rhinitis and Its Impact on Asthma) guidelines. New criteria of rhinitis classification were recently validated according to the ARIA modified (m-ARIA), which allow the discrimination between moderate to severe grades. The impact of...

Cellular Rhinitis represent a form of vasomotor rhinitis, they are studied by means of the nasal cytology which allows through the taking of a minimum amount of mucus in the nasal mucosa of studying with an optical microscope such cells. The cells are stained with May Grunwald Giemsa methods, such methods allows to highlight the major cellular components at the level of the surface layer of the...

PURPOSE Rhinitis and conjunctivitis are common diseases worldwide that are frequently associated. Nevertheless, the risk factors for rhinoconjunctivitis are not well-described and the impact of conjunctivitis on rhinitis and asthma in children remains unknown. This study explored the different risk factors and evaluated the burden of rhinoconjunctivitis among adolescents. METHODS This was a c...
