Active clinical trials for "Rhinitis"

Prospective multi-center study carried out in France involving patients with allergic rhinitis. Study in usual care where no specific diagnostic or therapeutic procedure is required. The patients will be asked to fill in Questionnaires on a daily and weekly basis.

Ambrosia is known for its allergenicity in the USA causing hay fever and asthma. Israel has always been considered "clean" of Ambrosia but over the past years growth of Ambrosia plants has been detected in several locations in Israel. In the proposed study, patients referred for routine allergic evaluation will also be skin tested with Ambrosia allergens, in addition to their regular prick skin tests with all other airborne allergens.

This project is an observational study for the Italian language validation of the CARATKids questionnaire investigating the asthma and coexisting allergic rhinitis control in children. 113 patients with concomitant asthma and allergic rhinitis followed up from at least 3 months will be enrolled for the validation process at outpatient clinic of Pediatric Allergology & Pulmonology (PAP) of Respiratory Disease Research Center (RDRC) within the Institute of Biomedicine and Molecular Immunology (IBIM) of the National Research Council (CNR) of Palermo (RDRC-IBIM CNR), Italy. The study will be completed in two medical examination, within 3-6 weeks of each other. CARATKids questionnaire, VAS (Visual Analogic Scale) and C-ACT (Children Asthma Control Test) will be filled by each patient. The main outcome is the Italian language validation of the CARATKids questionnaire investigating the coexisting asthma and allergic rhinitis control in children.

Inflammatory proteins from eosinophil granulocytes in blood from patients with seasonal allergic hayfever have been shown to predict development of asthma at a six-year follow-up. This study is a 15-year follow-up of the same patients to verify earlier results and study disease development.

A Multi-Center Study Evaluating the Nasal Allergic Symptomatology Induced by a Nasal Allergen Challenge (NAC) in a Dust Mite Population

This observational study aims at developing and validating a simple questionnaire to be routinely applied in the clinical practice, for the evaluation of the quality of life in children with concomitant asthma and allergic rhinitis. The study consists of two phases: Phase 1: Development of the RAPP-children questionnaire starting from the validated RHINASTHMA-children questionnaire. Phase 2: Administration and validation of the RAPP-children questionnaire. 150 children with concomitant asthma and allergic rhinitis will be followed-up for one month. Both at baseline and after one month, the RAPP children and several other standardized questionnaires will be administered.

This is an inception cohort study that analyses data from an administrative medical records database. The two inception cohorts are: 1) patients initiated on intranasal FP and 2) patients initiated on another INS (not FP). The candidates for the inception cohorts did not use any intranasal steroid in the year prior to initiation.

In about 800 children with allergic diseases (asthma, allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis) the investigators will retrospectively and cross-sectionally analyze the influence/correlation of diagnosis, treatment methods, allergy status (skin prick test results), lung function tests results on/with the concentration of nitric oxide in exhaled breath.

The Scottish National and District swimming teams will be screened for asthma and rhinitis using both mannitol challenge and sport-based exercise challenge.

The aim of the study is to find out if allergic diseases can be prevented buy giving probiotic bacteria to pregnant mothers and their newborn infants
