In about 3% of children, viral infections of the airways that develop in early childhood lead to narrowing of the laryngeal lumen in the subglottic region resulting in symptoms such as hoarseness, abarking cough, stridor, and dyspnea. These infections may eventually cause respiratory failure. The disease is often called acute subglottic laryngitis (ASL).

The aim of the study was to evaluate the inflammatory reaction in children with pseudocroup and compare it with other laryngological diseases according to the available literature data. The study group included 51 children hospitalized because of pseudocroup. The measurements of the acute phase proteins (APP), such as C-reactive protein (CRP), alpha-1-antitrypsin (AT), alpha-1-antichymotrypsin (ACT), alpha-1-acid glycoprotein (AGP), ceruloplasmin (Cp), transferrin (Tf), alpha-2-macroglobulin (A2M), and haptoglobin (Hp) were obtained at 3 time points.

Background: The efficacy and safety of 300 index of reactivity (IR) tablets of house dust mite (HDM) allergen extracts in Japanese pediatric (5-16 years old) patients with allergic rhinitis (AR) were assessed in a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study (JAPIC CTI-152981).
Methods: Patients were randomized 1:1 to HDM sublingual tablets or placebo once daily for 52 weeks. The primary end-point was average adjusted symptom score (AASS; average of daily Rhinitis Total Symptom Scores, comprising sneezing, rhinorrhea, nasal congestion, and nasal pruritus, adjusted for rescue medication use), analyzed during Weeks 48-52 (mixed-effects model for repeated measures).
