dc.description.abstract | Aim: Allergic rhinitis and asthma are a common health problem affecting the immune system.In this study, the epidemiological markers and laboratory Status were evaluated in subcutaneous specific allergen immunotherapy-treated patients diagnosed with allergic rhino-conjunctivitis and asthma.Material and Method: 626 patients were enrolled in the study. The sociode-mographic characteristics and allergen history of the participants were obtained. The total and specific IgE levels were detected by fluoroenzyme immunoassay method via use of ImmunoCAP kit. The skin prick tests (SPT) were recorded. Results: Total Ig E level was 307.6 ± 14.5 kU/L. Age of 25.6% of the patients was between 30-39 years. The most common irritant that exacerbates the allergic rhinitis and asthma symptoms was air pollution (%77.0) and house dust ranks second (%76.2). The SPT of the cases were evaluated taking the age groups into account and this revealed an decreased rate of positivity to the prick test for plants and cereals with increasing age (p<0.001). Among smokers grass, mold,epidermal prick positivity was signifi-cant. Discussion: In allergic diseases; allergens may have regional variations. That's why; the allergen profiles of the regions must be determined and the dermal Prick tests must be prepared accordingly. | en_US |
