Adenoidal hypertrophy and allergic rhinitis: Is there an inverse relationship?
CONCLUSION: This real-life study shows that large adenoids may be associated with absence of allergy, whereas large turbinates may be associated with small adenoids. PMID: 23406587 [PubMed - in process]

Randomized controlled trial of a ragweed allergy immunotherapy tablet in North American and European adults
This study evaluated an allergy immunotherapy tablet (AIT; SCH 39641/MK-3641) for treatment of ragweed-induced AR/C in the first large randomized, double-blind multinational trial of this therapeutic modality for ragweed allergy.Methods: Adults (n = 784) with short ragweed-induced AR/C were randomly assigned to approximately 52 weeks of daily self-administered ragweed AIT of 1.5, 6, or 12 units of Ambrosia artemisiifolia major allergen 1 (Amb a 1-U) or placebo. Subjects could use as-needed allergy rescue medication. Symptoms and medications were recorded daily. The primary efficacy end point was total combined daily sym...

Pediatric sublingual immunotherapy efficacy: evidence analysis, 2009-2012.
CONCLUSION: Evidence for efficacy of SLIT in children with respiratory or food allergy is growing. PMID: 23706708 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Myxomycete (slime mold) spores: unrecognized aeroallergens?
CONCLUSION: Forty-two percent of subjects with SAR were sensitized to myxomycete spores. A significant subset of subjects who had SAR symptoms and otherwise negative skin test results showed sensitization to myxomycetes. These spores are present in the outdoor air during the summer and autumn and might be significant aeroallergens. PMID: 24267365 [PubMed - in process]

Detection of respiratory viruses in adult patients with perennial allergic rhinitis.
CONCLUSION: This study shows that there is a high prevalence of respiratory viruses, especially rhinovirus, in patients with allergic rhinitis. Subsequent studies are needed to determine the clinical significance of highly prevalent respiratory viruses in patients with allergic rhinitis. PMID: 24267360 [PubMed - in process]

Component-Resolved Diagnosis (CRD): Is It Worth It? Frequency and Differentiation in Rhinitis Patients with Mite Reactivity.
Abstract Component-resolved diagnosis (CRD) using microarray technology has recently been introduced with the aim to improve diagnosis of allergy. The aim of this study was to compare performance of this allergen microarray to those of an established extract-based skin prick testing (SPT).45 patients with allergic rhinitis were studied (16 children and 29 adults). SPT to Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus, Dermatophagoides farinae and Blomia tropicalis extracts and allergen microarray ImmunoCAP ISAC were carried out for all patients. Forty out of 45 patients demonstrated positive SPT to all mite extracts tested. These...

Patient initiation and persistence with allergen immunotherapy.
CONCLUSION: A minority of patients initiated AIT according to allergist recommendation and a subset of these patients completed therapy. AIT might be an underused option that could benefit patients unable to manage allergic rhinitis symptoms by other means. TRIAL REGISTRATION: clinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT01549340.

Grass pollen sublingual immunotherapy: A double-blind, placebo-controlled study in elderly patients with seasonal allergic rhinitis.
CONCLUSIONS: SLIT in elderly patients with a grass pollen allergy generated a significant clinical improvement in the active group compared with the placebo group for grass pollen season. This therapy was well tolerated. PMID: 25198030 [PubMed - in process]

Immunotherapy for Mold Allergy
The objective of this article is to review the available studies regarding mold immunotherapy. A literature search was conducted in MEDLINE to identify peer-reviewed articles related to mold immunotherapy using the following keywords: mold, allergy, asthma, and immunotherapy. In addition, references cited within these articles were also reviewed. Articles were selected based on their relevance to the topic. Allergic responses to inhaled mold antigens are a recognized factor in allergic rhinitis and asthma. There are significant problems with respect to the production of relevant allergen material for the diagnosis and trea...

Terminology of allergic phenomena.
Authors: Ring J Abstract Over the last 2,000 years a variety of terms have been used for the description of phenomena possibly related to allergy. Many have been forgotten, while some of them have remained. In Greco-Roman literature the term 'idiosyncrasy' was used to describe an individual characterization of a health condition, possibly comparable to 'constitution'. The same term was also used to describe individual reaction patterns, and the term 'antipathy' was used in a similar sense. 'Hypersensitivity' originated from the German word 'Überempfindlichkeit' and was first used in a medical sense by Emil von Beh...

Specific IgE recognition of pollen allergens from subtropic grasses in patients from the subtropics.
CONCLUSION: Patients living in a subtropical region had species specific IgE recognition of subtropical GP. Most GP allergic patients in Queensland would benefit from allergen specific immunotherapy with a standardized content of subtropical GP allergens. PMID: 25744907 [PubMed - in process]

Identification of the cold receptor TRPM8 in the nasal mucosa.
CONCLUSIONS: The finding of the TRPM8 immunoreactivity underlines the important physiologic role of the nose in temperature regulation, both in patients with allergy and those without allergy. Isometric contraction studies demonstrate the role of TRPM8 in regulating nasal patency and airway resistance. The antiadrenergic effect of menthol showed an effect apparently opposite that of clinical observations, that we usually feel decongested after menthol inhalation. The underlying mechanisms deserve further investigation, and the TRPM8 antagonists deserve consideration for treatment of rhinitis in a therapeutic trial. PM...

Coexisting atopic conditions influence the likelihood of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis in asthma.
CONCLUSION: The absence of atopic eczema and allergic rhinitis in these patients increases the likelihood of ABPA. Eliciting an accurate allergy history may be a useful bedside clinical tool when considering the diagnosis of ABPA. PMID: 27234940 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
