Introduction: Local allergic rhinitis (LAR) is one of the endotypes of rhinitis which occurs commonly in different age groups.
Aim: To present the occurrence and characteristics of LAR in Polish children and adolescents.
Material And Methods: In the study protocol, three hundred sixty-one patients aged 5-17 with chronic rhinitis were included from 8 centres in Poland. Medical history and diagnostic procedures were performed with aeroallergens: skin prick tests, allergen-specific serum IgE and nasal provocation tests. In addition to LAR, allergic rhinitis (AR), dual allergic rhinitis (DUAL) and non-allergic rhinitis (NAR) were explored and compared.
Results: LAR was confirmed in 21% of patients, systemic allergic rhinitis (SAR) in 43.9%, DUAL in 9.4% and NAR in 33.9% of patients. Based on nasal provocation test (NPT), allergy to HDM prevailed in the LAR group (68%), grass in the SAR group (58%), and grass and HDM in the DUAL group (32% and 64%). Girls were prevalent in the LAR group, and severe rhinitis and asthma were more common than other endotypes ( < 0.05).
Conclusions: LAR is a common disease in children and adolescents and is often associated with severe rhinitis and frequently coexists with asthma.

Department of Biopharmaceutics and Clinical Pharmacy, School of Pharmacy, University of Jordan, Amman, Jordan.
Background: Chronic respiratory disorders such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) may deteriorate into acute exacerbations requiring hospitalization. Assessing the predictors of prolonged hospital stays could help identify potential interventions to reduce the burden on patients and healthcare systems.
Aim: This study aimed to identify the risk factors attributed to prolonged hospital stays among patients admitted with acute exacerbations of chronic respiratory disorders in Jordan.

Shuanghuanglian (SHL) and its primary constituents have demonstrated protective effects against allergenic diseases. This review examines the anaphylactic and anti-allergenic activities of SHL and its constituents. We also discuss potential avenues for future research, particularly regarding the expansion of the clinical applications of SHL formulations (oral or nebulized) for the treatment of allergenic disorders.

Clinical Metabolomics Core Laboratory, Chang Gung Memorial Hospital at Linkou, Taoyuan, Taiwan.
Background: Childhood rhinitis and asthma are allergic respiratory diseases triggered by common allergens, but they affect different parts of the respiratory system, leading to distinct symptoms. However, a comprehensive multi-biofluid metabolomics-based approach to uncover valuable insights into childhood allergies and allergen sensitization remains unaddressed.
Methods: Seventy-six children, comprising 26 with rhinitis, 26 with asthma, and 24 healthy controls, were enrolled.

Department of Biomedical Sciences, Humanitas University, Pieve Emanuele, MI, Italy.
Background: Allergen immunotherapy (AIT) is the only treatment that modifies the natural course of allergies. However, AIT is only used in some eligible patients, is frequently underused, and only a few studies investigated this aspects. Understanding AIT utilization patterns might disclose information about why it is underused, thus providing valuable insights on how to broaden the positive impact it can have on the population.
