Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the distribution characteristics and analyze the clinical significance of dermatophagoides pteronyssinus allergen components in children with allergic rhinitis and asthma in Shenzhen.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study. The clinical data of children with allergic rhinitis and asthma induced by dust mites admitted to the allergy clinic of Shenzhen Children′s Hospital from 2021 to 2024 were collected and the serum sIgE levels of dermatophagoides pteronyssinus, dermatophagoides farinae (Der p, Der f) and dermatophagoides pteronyssinus components (Der p 1, Der p 2, Der p 10, Der p 23) were detected by magnetic bead chemiluminescence method. The correlation between dermatophagoides pteronyssinus allergen components and clinical data of children was analyzed. According to the diagnosis, the children were divided into allergic rhinitis (AR) group and AR with asthma (ARAS) group. According to the age, the children were divided into preschool age (5 years ≤age<7 years), school age (7 years ≤age<10 years) and adolescence (10 years ≤age≤15 years). The expression differences of dermatophagoides pteronyssinus components among AR group and ARAS group and different age groups were compared.Results:A total of 314 children with allergic rhinitis and asthma caused by dust mites were included in the study, of whom 112 were male and 202 were female. There were 188 cases of AR and 126 cases of ARAS, aged 5-15 years, with a median age of 7.54 years and an average age of (8.02±2.24) years. BMI was 13.89-31.76 kg/m 2,the median BMI was 15.87 kg/m2 and average BMI was (16.55±3.05) kg/m2. There was not statistically significant difference in gender, age, BMI, blood eosinophils, blood basophils, FeNO, FVC and FEV1 between the AR group and the ARAS group ( P>0.05). There was significant difference in FEV1/FVC and small airway function indexes MMEF, MEF75%, MEF50% and MEF25% between the AR group and the ARAS group ( P<0.05). In the 314 children, the dermatophagoides pteronyssinus allergen components sensitization rates were in the order of Der p 1 (97.1%), Der p 2 (89.8%), Der p 23 (55.1%), Der p 10 (8.6%), and the difference in the positive rate was statistically significant (χ 2=658.31, P<0.001). There was not significant difference in Der p 1, Der p 2 and Der p 10 among children of different ages ( P>0.05). There was significant difference in Der p 23 among children of different ages (χ 2=7.29, P=0.03). A correlation analysis showed that Der p, Der f, Der p 1 and Der p 2 had a high positive correlation ( P<0.001). Eosinophils are positively correlated with Der p, Der f, Der p 1, Der p 2, Der p 10 and Der p 23 ( P<0.001). FeNO is positively correlated with Der p, Der f, and Der p 23 ( P<0.05). Small airway function indicators MMEF, MEF50% and MEF25% are negatively correlated with Der p, Der f and Der p 1 ( P<0.05). The sIgE levels of Der p, Der f, Der p 1, Der p 2 and Der p 10 in the AR group were significantly lower than those in the ARAS group ( P<0.05). In the ARAS group, 120 cases (95.24%) showed positive results for at least 2 dermatophagoides pteronyssinus components, while 71 cases (56.35%) showed positive results for at least 3 dermatophagoides pteronyssinus components. In the AR group, 171 cases (90.96%) showed positive results for at least 2 dermatophagoides pteronyssinus components, while 94 cases (50.00%) showed positive results for at least 3 dermatophagoides pteronyssinus components. Conclusion:Der p 1, Der p 2 and Der p 23 may be the main dermatophagoides pteronyssinus allergen components that induce allergic rhinitis and asthma in Shenzhen City. The elevation of sIgE levels in the dermatophagoides pteronyssinus components can aggravate the severity of lower airway eosinophilic inflammation and airway obstruction. Attention should be paid to the detection of dermatophagoides pteronyssinus components in children with poor response to dust mite-allergen specific immunotherapy.
