Efficient evaluation of standardized specific immunotherapy in personalized maintenance phase to patients of allergic rhinitis / 临床耳鼻咽喉头颈外科杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the efficacy of individualized subcutaneous immunotherapy (SCIT) in allergic rhinitis(AR) maintain phase.@*METHOD@#Compare nasal symptom scores (VAS) and special disease scale--nasal conjunctivitis quality of life questionnaire(RQLQ) score after 3 years treatment to evaluate the therapeutic effect of each group and the level of improving patients quality of life. Take patients' blood to detect the serum level of IL-10 by enzyme linked immunosorbent test (enzyme linked immunosorbent assay).@*RESULT@#After 3 years treatment, there was no difference of VAS between the conventional SCIT group and the individualized SCIT group. ELISA results showed that the level of IL-10 was significantly higher in the drug symptomatic treatment group than that in the healthy group, the levels of IL-10 were significantly lower in the conventional SCIT group and the individualized SCIT group than that in the healthy group, but there was no difference between the conventional SCIT and the individualized SCIT group.@*CONCLUSION@#After 3 years treatment, there was no difference between conventional and individualized SCIT groups. But the efficacy of the conventional and individualized SCIT groups were significantly better than that in the drug symptomatic treatment group.

OBJECTIVE@#To evaluate symptoms and quality of life in children with allergic rhinitis, and to evaluate the correlations among the skin prick tests results, symptoms and quality of life.@*METHOD@#Visual analog scale (VAS) was used to assess the symptoms severity, rhinoconjunctivitis quality of life questionnaire (RQLQ) was used to assess quality of life, the skin prick tests results were recorded, and statistics analysis was carried out among them.@*RESULT@#(1) There were significant differences among the five aspects of RQLQ (F = 32.03, P < 0.01), nasal symptoms aspect was the most affected aspect of quality of life, moreover, there were significant differences among all the items of RQLQ (F = 7.35, P < 0.01), the scores of nasal blockage, sneezing and rhinorrhea were the highest, there were no significant differences among them. (2) VAS was significantly correlated with RQLQ, moreover, the scores of unable to get to sleep and embarrassed by symptoms were significantly correlated with rhinorrhea VAS scores (r = 0.230, P < 0.05; r = 0.325, P < 0.01), the score of wake up during the night was significantly correlated with nasal itching and sneezing VAS scores (r = 0.385, P < 0.01; r = 0.231, P < 0.05), the score of can't concentrate was significantly correlated with the scores of unable to get to sleep and wake up during the night (r = 0.316, P < 0.01; r = 0.525, P < 0.01), the score of irritable was significantly correlated with the scores of unable to get to sleep (r = 0.243, P < 0.05). (3) The results of the skin prick tests were related with VAS and RQLQ.@*CONCLUSION@#Nasal symptoms severity may significantly correlated with the quality of life. Rhinorrhea, nasal itching and sneezing may be the main factors affecting the quality of sleep, while the quality of sleep may affect non-hay-fever symptoms and emotions, rhinorrhea may be the main factor affecting embarrassed by symptoms. The allergen level was related with the symptoms severity and quality of life.
