Efficacy of Artemisia Pollen Specific Allergen Immunotherapy
Allergic RhinitisAllergic rhinitis (AR) is a noninfectious inflammatory disease of the nasal mucosa mediated by immunoglobulin E (IgE) after exposure to allergens. Artemisia annua is one of the most important allergen that is responsible for seasonal AR in China during July and October. Allergen specific immunotherapy (AIT) is the only etiological treatment available for AR. The trial is a randomized, Open label, multicentred trial. A total of 150 subjects with allergic rhinitis caused by Artemisia pollen were recruited and randomized to the immunotherapy group and conversation drugs group.
Efficacy, Safety and Underlying Mechanisms of Sphenopalatine Ganglion Acupuncture for Seasonal Allergic...
Seasonal Allergic RhinitisIn recent years, a number of randomized controlled trials have confirmed the efficacy and safety of acupuncture in the treatment of allergic rhinitis (AR). Indeed, the latest American clinical guidelines recommended acupuncture treatment for AR patients who are interested in non-pharmacological treatment. In conventional acupuncture treatment for AR, needles are inserted at specific acupoints in the body; with several studies demonstrating acupuncture of sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG) to improve nasal symptoms and quality of life in nasal inflammatory diseases. The investigators hypothesize that, compared with sham acupuncture and rescue medication (RM), active SPG acupuncture combined with RM would lead to greater improvements in symptoms score and reduction in overall need for antihistamines. To test this hypothesis the investigators design a randomized, double blind, controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of SPG acupuncture in pollen-induced seasonal AR patients and to explore the potential underlying mechanisms.

Acupuncture for Nasal Congestion in Allergic Rhinitis
Allergic RhinitisAllergic rhinitis (AR) is a disorder that affects more than 500 million people worldwide. Nasal congestion is one of the most general and bothersome symptoms in rhinitis, which affects the quality of life (QOL). Current medications are undesirable due to their side-effects. Acupuncture for AR in general can be considered as safe and can be seen as a potential remedial blueprint for nasal congestion. Evidence supported that acupuncture is clinically used for signs and symptoms of nose disorders, such as nasal congestion, with effectiveness, but whether acupuncture has immediate, post-treatment and long-term effects on nasal congestion in AR is not verified by strictly designed clinical study. The ANCAR trial uses a standard treatment protocol with a fixed set of acupuncture points - to be as scientific as possible from Western medical viewpoint - to open the nose and affect underlying energetic imbalance and immunity at the same time, to maintain its nose opening effect. This novel acupuncture treatment protocol can be seen as a solid and profound approach from which every AR patient may benefit.
The Effects of Using Yupingfeng Powder With Variation for the Treatment of Allergic Rhinitis
Allergic RhinitisAllergic rhinitis (AR) is an IgE mediated chronic inflammatory disease of the upper airways characterized by symptoms of sneezing, rhinorrhea, nasal itching, and nasal obstruction . However, not only this disease is difficult to cure, but also its relapse rate is high, therefore exerting a certain impact on their daily life, work and study. Nowadays, the main treatment for allergic rhinitis is the use of western medicine, such as steroids and antihistamines. However, many clinical studies have found that the curative effect of western medicine is often not ideal. Allergic rhinitis belongs to the category of "Rhinitis" in Chinese medicine. From the perspective of Chinese medicine, this disease is resulted from the deficiency of Qi and Yang Qi in the lungs, spleen and kidneys. Therefore, according to Chinese medicine theory, tonifying lung and spleen qi is the treatment principle for AR patients. Among different Chinese herbal formulae for AR, Yupingfeng san is commonly used for allergic diseases and in AR patients, due to its warm nature and able to improve the functions of the lungs and spleen. Yupingfeng san can improve symptoms and quality of life, as well as decrease the levels of interleukin and IgE in AR patients. This study will use Yupingfeng Powder with variation to evaluate its effectiveness and safety in treating AR. Hence, this study would be able to provide evidence on the efficacy and safety of Yupingfeng Powder with variation for AR.
