Patient needs and benefits of sublingual immunotherapy for grass pollen-induced allergic rhinitis: an observational study.

Clinical efficacy of sublingual immunotherapy for grass pollen-induced allergic rhinitis (AR) needs to translate into patient benefit. Patients received Oralair (Stallergenes, Antony, France) in real-life medical practice. Patient-relevant treatment benefits were measured with the AR-specific Patient Benefit Index.

Relevant Patient Benefit of Sublingual Immunotherapy with Birch Pollen Allergen Extract in Allergic Rhinitis: An Open, Prospective, Non-Interventional Study.

Introduction: Sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) with birch pollen extract has been shown to be an efficacious treatment of allergic rhinitis (AR). An as-yet unanswered question is whether and how clinical benefit translates into patient benefit, i.e.

Treatment Satisfaction During Sublingual Immunotherapy with a Five-Grass Pollen Tablet for Allergic Rhinoconjunctivitis: A Prospective, Non-Interventional Study.

Background: Sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) is a safe/well-tolerated alternative to allergen injection immunotherapy for allergic rhinoconjunctivitis (ARC). Patient adherence is essential and patient-related outcome measures including treatment satisfaction are informative/indicative of adherence.

Objective: The aim was to assess treatment satisfaction with five-grass pollen tablet SLIT under real-life conditions.

Management of Grass Pollen Allergy with 5-Grass Pollen Tablet: Results of a 2-Year Real-Life Study.

Introduction: Allergen immunotherapy is the only treatment option for allergic rhinitis with disease-altering potential. It was the objective of this study to assess the effectiveness and tolerability of a 5-grass pollen tablet in a large population of non-selected grass pollen allergic patients, i.e.

Optimum treatment strategies for polyallergic patients - analysis of a large observational trial.

Objectives: To document the effectiveness and safety of sublingual allergen immunotherapy (SLIT) with a five-grass pollen tablet (Oralair ) and compare different treatment options in a broad, non-selected population of patients in a real-world clinical setting.

Research Design And Methods: This was a 2 year, open, prospective, multicenter, single-arm, non-interventional study. Patients with a history of clinically relevant allergic symptoms caused by grass pollen, confirmed by skin prick testing, received treatment with the five-grass pollen tablet.

Sublingual Immunotherapy with a Five-Grass Pollen Tablet in Adult Patients with Allergic Rhinitis: An Open, Prospective, Noninterventional, Multicenter Study.

Background: Although the safety and efficacy of sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) with a five-grass pollen tablet have been demonstrated in randomized clinical trials (RCTs), these outcomes must always be evaluated in real-life medical practice.

Methods: In a prospective, open-label, noninterventional, "real-life" study in Germany, we evaluated the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of SLIT with a five-grass pollen tablet in adults with grass-pollen-induced allergic rhinoconjunctivitis.

Results: 808 adults were enrolled between September 2008 and December 2009.

An observational, real-life safety study of a 5-grass pollen sublingual tablet in children and adolescents.

Background: The safety and efficacy of pre- and coseasonal sublingual allergen immunotherapy (SLIT) with a 5-grass pollen sublingual tablet have been demonstrated in a randomized clinical trial (RCT) in children and adolescents. Observational, 'real-life' studies can usefully complement the results of RCTs.

Methods: A prospective, open-label, observational, multicentre post-marketing study of children and adolescents (aged 5-17, with grass pollen-induced allergic rhinitis) treated with the 5-grass pollen sublingual tablet was performed between June 2009 and January 2011 in Germany.

Speeded production of inflected words in children and adults.

This study examines the production of regular and irregular participle forms of German with high and low frequencies using a speeded production task. 40 children in two age groups (five- to seven-year olds, eleven- to twelve-year olds) and 35 adult native speakers of German listened to stem forms of verbs presented in a sentential context and were asked to produce corresponding participle forms as quickly and accurately as possible. Dependent variables were the subjects' participle-production latencies and error rates.
