Nasal food challenge with hen's egg white allergen.

Background: Nasal allergen provocation tests are an important part of the diagnostics of allergic diseases triggered by environmental factors. Recently, increased attention has been paid to the potential use of this method in the diagnosis of food allergy. The objective of the study was to evaluate the usefulness of the nasal allergen provocation test in a group of subjects allergic to hen's egg white allergens.

Intranasal combo: fixed-dose combination of mometasone furoate and olopatadine hydrochloride in therapeutic strategies for rhinosinusitis.

A novel strategy for the treatment of allergic rhinitis results from the innovative combination of antihistamine and intranasal corticosteroid drugs. By combining two preparations with different mechanism of action, this novel approach facilitates quick and effective controls of all upper respiratory tract allergy symptoms. The article presents the results of a study of olopatadine hydrochloride and mometasone furoate fixed-dose combination (GSP301) administered intranasally from a spray formulation, with an attempt at positioning the treatment within the ARIA and EPOS guidelines.

Co-occurrence of otitis media with effusion and another environment-dependent disease (selected allergic conditions).

Introduction: Otitis media eith effusion (OME) is an inflammatory condition of the middle ear that involves accumulation of sterile fluid or effusion in the tympanic cavity with the tympanic membrane intact. The pathophysiology of OME is undoubtedly multifactorial.

Aim: To assess the co-occurrence of OME, allergic rhinitis, and asthma.

Why the role of mHealth in allergy diagnosis and treatment adherence cannot be overlooked.

Background: Allergic diseases-rhinitis and asthma-are the most common chronic conditions affecting adults. Traditional approaches to allergy diagnosis and treatment do not meet the health needs of all patients. Treatment adherence remains a challenge for physicians.
