Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the aeroallergen spectrum in allergic rhinitis in Xinjiang area and analyze its relating factors.
Methods:Skin prick test was carried out in 480 cases with allergic rhinitis using 20 inhaled allergens. The major change in recent years with allergic rhinitis and allergen distribution was compared.SPSS 17.0 software was used to analyze the data.
Results:Among 480 cases, 406 showed positive reaction. The most common allergens found in patients were chenopodium (61.6%) and mugwort (44.1%), followed by willow(37.7%), maple(37.7%), poplar(30.3%), house dust mite(30.3%), plantain(29.8%), acacia(25.9%), dust mite maple(25.4%), and so on. The rate of positive reaction to only one allergen was 9.6%, of which 21 were mite allergens. The positiverate to allergensin male and female were 84.2% and 85.1%, the distribution of allergens in both sexes did not differ(χ2=0.001, P=0.978). The positiverate to allergens in patients aged 21 to 35 years old was 88.6%, in patients aged 36 to 54 years old was 78.4%, the difference was statistically significant(χ2=0.258, P<0.01). The positive rate to allergens in Kazakhs was slightly higher than that in other ethnic groups (91.7%). The positive rates to allergens in the Han, Uygur and other ethnic groups were 84.8%, 86.4% and 63.3% respectively, the difference was statistically significant(χ2=9.779, P=0.044). Seventy-five point four percent of all allergen-positive patients(306 cases) combined with asthma.
Conclusions:The major allergen with allergic rhinitis is chenopodium. Among them, Kazakh allergic positive rate is higher than other ethnic groups.
