Yoga Training in Allergic Rhinitis Patients
Allergic RhinitisThe purpose of this study was to investigate effects of yoga training on rhinitis symptoms and cytokines in allergic rhinitis patients. Twenty-seven allergic rhinitis patients, aged 18-45 year old, were randomized into 2 groups: control group (CON; n=14) and yoga group (YOG; n=13). The control group had normal life and the yoga group was required to complete protocol with yoga training for a period of 8 weeks, 60 minutes, 3 times a week. Physiological variables, lung function variables, allergic rhinitis symptoms variables, and cytokines level in nasal secretion variables were analyzed during pre-test and post-test. The dependent variables between pre-test and post-test were analyzed by a paired t-test. The dependent variables between groups were analyzed by independent t-test. One way repeated measures ANOVA was used to compare the variables among pre-test, after 4 weeks, and after 8 weeks. Differences were considered to be significant at p < 0.05.
Effect of Health Promotion on Allergic Rhinitis by Infrared-C Ray Irradiation
Allergic RhinitisAllergic rhinitis is one of the chronic illnesses. At present, the major treatments for allergic rhinitis are avoiding allergens, medical treatment and surgery. However, inadequate effects, and possible side effects of these treatments are still problems to these patients. Therefore, to find an effective non-medical and non-surgical treatment will be of great help in treating patients with allergic rhinitis. Infrared-C (far-infrared) ray irradiation is able to promote normal operation of autonomic nervous system, to improve blood circulation and thereby assumed to relieve discomfort symptoms of patients with vascular, specific or non-specific allergic rhinitis. Consequently, infrared-C ray irradiation is expected to be effective for the treatment of allergic rhinitis. The investigators aimed to probe the adjunct effects of infrared-C ray irradiation in terms of infrared-C hot compress in improving allergy symptoms like sneezing, rhinorrhea, nasal obstruction, nose and conjunctiva itching during a medical treatment for patients with allergic rhinitis. Moreover, the impact of infrared-C irradiation on health and life quality enhancement will also be studied.
"Efficacy and Safety of Phlai Capsule Compared to Placebo as the Treatment in Allergic Rhinitis...
Allergic RhinitisBackground: Zingiber cassumunar Roxb., frequently known as Phlai in Thai, has been safely used as an antihistaminic and anti-inflammatory drug in Thai traditional medicine. Individual with allergic rhinitis may have positive response to Phlai. Objective: Investigators assessed the efficacy and safety of Phlai as a treatment for allergic rhinitis Design: The study was a 1-month, double-blind, randomized, parallel-group, intent-to-treat, multicenter, controlled trial in 267 patients at 7 hospitals in Thailand. Skin prick test-positive adults with allergic rhinitis ages 18 to 50 who were randomized into 3 groups (Phlai 8mg/d, Phlai 4mg/d, placebo). Main outcome measures: Primary outcome was defined: improvement of total 5 symptoms scores (nasal obstruction, rhinorrhea, sneezing, itchy nose, itchy eyes) over a 4-week interval among Phlai 8mg/d, Phlai 4mg/d and placebo. Secondary endpoints were: assessments of rhinoconjunctivitis quality of life questionnaire, peak inspiratory nasal flow, nasal examination, adverse events, AST, ALT, Creatinine and BUN over a period of 4 weeks.

Adolescent Mite Allergy Safety Evaluation
Allergic RhinitisAllergic RhinoconjunctivitisThis is a 28-day clinical trial studying the safety of the house dust mite tablet in adolescents with allergic rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis. The purpose of this trial is to collect additional safety information about a tablet used to treat house dust mite allergies, when used to treat adolescents who have these allergies. The trial medication used is already approved to treat allergic rhinitis caused by house dust mite in adults and adolescents (12-17 years old) in several countries.
Demonstration of a Decongestant Effect of "Coldamaris Akut" Compared to Saline Nasal Spray.
Allergic RhinitisAllergic RhinoconjunctivitisAllergic rhinitis (AR) in its seasonal and perennial form is a common allergic condition. The majority of allergic rhinitis sufferers report nasal (congestion, sneezing, itching and rhinorrhea) and ocular (redness, watery eyes, itching and burning) symptoms. Coldamaris akut nasal spray is a Carragelose® containing hyperosmolar solution that is indicated for supportive treatment in case of blocked nose due to rhinitis of any kind. Carragelose® is a sulfated polymer from red seaweed also widely used in the food industry and has GRAS status (FDA). The increased osmolality is based on the addition of sorbitol. This clinical study has the aim to show that Coldamaris akut has a mild decongestant effect. This will be a prospective, controlled, double-blinded randomized two-way cross-over single site study in adult subjects (18 to 65 years) who demonstrate a grass pollen specific Immunoglobulin E (IgE) reactivity and have a history of grass pollen induced allergic rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis with or without controlled asthma. In the cross-over setting two treatments, namely Coldamaris Akut and Coldamaris sine will be evaluated. The objective of the trial is to demonstrate a decongestant effect on the nasal mucosa of patients treated with Coldamaris akut nasal spray compared to subjects treated with Coldamaris sine nasal spray in grass pollen induced rhinitis/rhinoconjunctivitis. The evaluation will be based on the assessment of nasal congestion symptom during grass pollen challenge performed in the Vienna Challenge Chamber (environmental exposure chamber). Secondary objective of the trial is to demonstrate the clinical performance of Coldamaris akut nasal spray on nasal symptoms compared to subjects treated with saline nasal spray.
Novel Dose Adjustment Schedule for Late Injection in SCIT in AR
Allergic RhinitisImmunotherapyAllergen specific immunotherapy is currently the only curative intervention for allergic rhinitis (AR). Subcutaneous immunotherapy (SCIT) need to be reinstituted with an interruption of more than 16 weeks in maintenance period, leading to increased time and economic cost burden and difficulties for continuing further treatment for patients. The aim of present study was to develop a novel dose adjustment schedule for such situation and to compare the clinical efficacy and adverse reactions between novel and conventional schedules for dust mite (DM) SCIT of AR subjects.
