Objective:To observe the efficacy and safety of the M receptor antagonist Bencycloquidium bromide nasal spray in treatment of seasonal allergic rhinitis with runny nose as the main symptom. Methods:From August 2021 to September 2021, 134 patients with seasonal allergic rhinitis were enrolled in the otolaryngology Outpatient Department of Peking University Third Hospital, First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University and China-Japanese Friendship Hospital of Jilin University, including 71 males and 63 females, with a median age of 38 years. TNSS score and visual analogue scale（VAS） of total nasal symptoms were observed during 2 weeks of treatment with Bencycloquidium bromide nasal spray. Results:TNSS score decreased from （8.89±3.31） on day 0 to （3.71±2.51） on day 14（P<0.001）, VAS score of nasal symptoms decreased from （24.86±7.40） on day 0 to （6.84±5.94） on day 14（P<0.001）, VAS score of rhinorrhoea decreased from （6.88±2.06） on day 0 to （1.91±1.81） on day 14（P<0.001）. Rhinoconjunctivitis quality of life questionnaire（RQLQ） score decreased from （94.63±33.35） on day 0 to （44.95±32.28） on day 14（P<0.001）. The incidence of adverse reaction was low and no serious adverse events occurred during the whole experiment. Conclusion:Bencycloquidium bromide nasal spray has significant efficacy and good safety in the treatment of seasonal allergic rhinitis.

Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) describes a broad category of practices and treatments for the prevention or treatment of disease outside the realm of conventional medicine. CAM is widely used in the treatment of allergic rhinitis, acute and chronic rhinosinusitis. This article summarizes a variety of CAM and the efficacy in the treatment of rhinitis and sinusitis, with the purpose of increasing people′s awareness of CAM and enriching the treatment of rhinitis and sinusitis, so that patients can benefit from it.

Intralymphatic immunotherapy (ILIT) is an effective and safe causative treatment for allergic diseases. Compared with conventional specific immunotherapy such as subcutaneous immunotherapy (SCIT) and sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT), ILIT could significantly reduce treatment duration. This article will review the results of previous researches focusing on ILIT.

Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a nasal inflammatory,IgE-mediated disease that occurs when some individuals inhales something he or she is allergic to,such as pollen or animal dander.It is also a refractory disease with high prevalence in the field of rhinology.The treatment of AR is really a difficult and challenging task because of the high prevalence,economic burden and the interference to the quality of life.At present,nasal corticosteroid and antihistamines were the mainly therapies,however,there is up to 40％ patients not satisfactory to these therapies.So exploring new therapy or target is necessary.This article will review the results of previous studies focused on the new therapies of AR.

Objective To investigate the role of lymph vessel density (LVD) and microvessel pericyte coverage index (MPI) in the pathogenesis of nasal polyps.Methods Using immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence double staining method,the expressions of albumin,D2-40 and CD34-α-SMA in 11 specimens of normal nasal mucosa,26 specimens of nasal polyp and 26 specimens of inferior turbinate tissue from patients with nasal polyps were investigated.The counts of microvessel density (MVD),lymph vessel density (LVD) and microvessel pericyte coverage index (MPI) were compared.SPSS 17.0 software was used to analyze the data.Results The nasal polyp group(0.269 ±0.096) had more albumin than inferior turbinate tissue group (0.159 ± 0.078) and normal nasal mucosa group (0.138 ± 0.045),the differences were significant (q value was 4.873,4.446,both P ＜ 0.05).The counts of MVD in nasal polyp group (30.52 ± 4.42) were not significantly higher than those in inferior turbinate tissue group (30.33 ± 6.03) and normal nasal mucosa group(28.21 ±6.84),the differences were not significant (q value was 0.130,1.147,both P ＞0.05).The MPI in nasal polyp group (0.291 ±0.096) was significantly lower than those in inferior turbinate tissue group(0.432 ± 0.101) and normal nasal mucosa group(0.416 ± 0.071),the difference was significant (q value was 5.399,3.680,both P ＜ 0.05).The counts of LVD in the nasal polyp group (0.245 ± 0.073) were significantly lower than those in inferior turbinate tissue group (0.431 ± 0.054) and normal nasal mucosa group (0.470 ± 0.078),the difference was significant (q value was 10.004,9.328,both P ＜ 0.05).MPI expression in the nasal polyp group was negetively correlated to albumin expression(r =-0.889,P ＜ 0.05).The LVD expression in the nasal polyp group was negetively correlated to albumin expression(r =-0.901,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Different LVD and MIP in nasal polyp tissues and normal nasal mucosa tissues imply that microcirculatory dysfunction plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of nasal polyps.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether the allergic factors impact the severity of chronic rhinosinusitis or not, further more, to explore the relationship between allergic rhinitis and chronic rhinosinusitis. METHOD: A retrospective review was done on 103 patients. All of these patients were under functional intranasal endoscopic sinus surgery after expectant treatment is ineffective. We devided the patients into different groups according to the result of skin prick and specific IgE and if there is difference in VAS score, Lund and Kennedy endoscopic score, Lund-Mackay CT score between the groups. We also analysed the symptoms in different chronic rhinosinusitis patients allerged to variant kinds of allergen. The SPSS 17.0 software was used to analyze the data. Statistical analysis was performed by t-test, rank order test or χ2 test. RESULT: The duration of the disease, VAS score of nasal blockage, score of Lund-Mackay CT and Lund and Kennedy endoscopic before the operation were in no statistical sense after when compared with the two groups of patients with chronic rhiriosinusitis who grouped according the result of skin prick and specific IgE. The VAS score of facial pressure and loss of smell was higher in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis which the skin prick and specific IgE were positive. The VAS score of nasal discharge was higher in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis who got negative skin prick and specific IgE result. The symptoms of chronic rhinosinusitis improved with operation no matter the group of skin prick and specific IgE positive or negative and VAS score of nasal blockage improved significantly in negative group. The symptoms of sneezing, rhinorrhoea and rhinocnesmus improved after operation among the chronic rhinosinusitis patients with skin prick and specific IgE. The number of cockroach allergy is larger among the patients with chronic rhinosinusitis without polyps than the one among the patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with polyps. CONCLUSION Allergic factor didn't impact much the severity of chronic rhinosinusitis patients who were failed in expectant treatment, besidesthe postoperative outcomes showed that only influence the severity of nasal discharge, facial pressure and loss of smell. Different kinds of allergen were found between the patients of chronic rhinosinusitis with or without polyps. No significantly functional endoscopic sinusitis sugrery outcome were related to the allergic factor. But the allergic factor may interfere the remission of nasal discharge after surgery.
