Allergic rhinitis can influence patient's daily activity severely and may precede the development of asthma, especially if it is not diagnosed and treated correctly. In addition to subcutaneous immunotherapy, sublingual immunotherapy(SLIT) represents the only treatment being potentially able to cure allergic respiratory diseases, by modulating the immune system activity. This review clearly summarizes and analyzes the available randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trials, which aimed at evaluating the effectiveness and the safety of grass pollen and house dust mite SLIT for the specific treatment of pediatric allergic rhinitis. Our analysis demonstrates the good evidence supporting the efficacy of SLIT for allergic rhinitis to grass pollens in children, whereas trials regarding pediatric allergic rhinitis to house dust mites present lower quality, although several studies supported its usefulness.展开更多
目的:观察舌下免疫治疗(SLIT)疗效与尘螨组分sIgE和sIgG4水平变化的相关性。方法:回顾性分析2018年4月~2021年10月就诊于某院过敏反应科并行SLIT的过敏性鼻炎患儿(n=37),根据治疗1年后症状和药物综合评分(CSMS)分为控制稳定组(n=25)和...目的:观察舌下免疫治疗(SLIT)疗效与尘螨组分sIgE和sIgG4水平变化的相关性。方法:回顾性分析2018年4月~2021年10月就诊于某院过敏反应科并行SLIT的过敏性鼻炎患儿(n=37),根据治疗1年后症状和药物综合评分(CSMS)分为控制稳定组(n=25)和控制不稳定组(n=12),比较两组患儿9种重要尘螨致敏蛋白组分(Derp1/Derf1、Derp2/Derf2、Derp5、Derp7、Derp10、Derp21和Derp23)sIgE和sIgG4的水平变化。结果:Derp1/Derf1和Derp2/Derf2为主要致敏蛋白组分,其治疗前sIgE阳性率为86.5%~94.6%,其中Der p 2的sIgE浓度高于Derp1(P<0.0001)、Derp5(P<0.001)、Derp7(P<0.001)、Derp10(P<0.001)、Derp21(P<0.01);Derf2的sIgE浓度高于Derf1(P<0.0001)、Derp5(P<0.0001)、Derp7(P<0.0001)、Der p 10(P<0.0001)、Der p 21(P<0.0001)和Der p 23(P<0.01)。治疗前Der f 2的sIgG4浓度高于其他组分(P<0.0001),控制不稳定组中Der f 1的sIgG4阳性率(33.3%)高于控制稳定组(4.0%,P<0.05),且控制不稳定组中Derf1和Derp10的sIgG4浓度高于控制稳定组(P<0.05)。治疗1年后,控制稳定组患儿Der f 1和Der p 2的sIgG4水平高于治疗前(P<0.05)。结论:尘螨致敏过敏性鼻炎患儿应用SLIT治疗后,Der f 1和Der p 2的sIgG4浓度升高明显,提示SLIT疗效较好,为临床评估SLIT疗效提供了线索。展开更多
