Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To explore the possible role and mechanism of vitamin D on the pathogenesis of allergic rhinitis by adjuvant therapy with vitamin D3. METHODS A total of 60 allergic rhinitis patients and 30 healthy subjects were selected as the combination therapy group, standard treatment group and control group. Vitamin D3 nasal drops to nasal cavity and oral Desloratadine Citrate Disodium at the same time 8.8 mg once a day were given in combined treatment group patients. Standard treatment group patients received oral Desloratadine Citrate Disodium 8.8 mg once a day. The total course of treatment was 4 weeks and then to assess the changes of serum 25(OH)D concentration, eosinophils, IL-4 levels and the therapeutic effect before and after treatment. RESULTS The serum 25(OH)D levels before and after treatment in combination therapy group were(23.67±4.47)ng/ml and (47.57±2.83)ng/ml, the IL-4 levels were (14.576 ± 4.472)pg/ml and (10.381 ± 3.41l)pg/ml, and the eosinophils of peripheral blood counts were (0.71±0.14)× 109/L and (0.34 ± 0.09)×109/L. The total effective rate was 97%. The serum 25(OH)D levels before and after treatment in standard treatment group were (23.42±3.83)ng/ml and(31.51 ±2.95)ng/ml, the IL-4 levels were (15.187±5.144)pg/ml and (12.794 ±5.396)pg/ml, and the eosinophils of peripheral blood counts were (0.67±0.12)×109/L and (0.41 ±0.10)×109/L. The total effective rate was 84%. CONCLUSION Nasal vitamin D3 drops combined with antihistamines for allergic rhinitis can effectively improve the clinical symptoms and reduce the related inflammatory markers.
