Objective: This study was conducted in order to view the effect of eucalyptus oil in the treatment of allergic rhinitis by reducing allergic symptoms.
Data Sources: Databases including PubMed, The Cochrane Library, PLOS ONE and JSTOR were searched for articles from inception to 31st December, 2023.
Study Selections: The criteria for selection involved clinical trials in English with full text, having patients of allergic rhinitis. Screening and selection were done according to PRISMA guidelines after registration of protocol on PROSPERO (CRD42024498763).
Results: Out of 1772 studies searched only 3 clinical trials were included. Eucalyptus oil reduced allergic symptoms evaluated using RQLQ placebo (MD -0.40; 95% CI [-0.68, -0.12], = 0.005) and total nasal symptom score (MD -3.86; 95% CI [-8.06, 0.34], = 0.07). Nasal itching length exanthema and heart burn were the most common adverse effects.
Conclusion: This review showed that eucalyptus oil was beneficial in reducing the symptoms of allergic rhinitis and improving the quality of life thus providing a way for future studies to establish its dose and duration for the management of allergic rhinitis.

Ectoine, a cytoprotective compound derived from bacteria and categorized as a postbiotic, is increasingly recognized as a viable alternative to traditional therapeutic agents, frequently presenting considerable side effects. This extensive review underscores the effectiveness of ectoine as a postbiotic in managing conditions such as rhinosinusitis, atopic dermatitis, and allergic rhinitis, all while demonstrating a commendable safety profile. Its capacity to establish robust hydrogen bonds without compromising cellular integrity supports its potential application in anti-aging and cancer prevention strategies.

Background: Epidemiological investigations provide considerable evidence supporting the coexistence of upper airway ailments with lower airway disorders, but the association between common nasal diseases, such as allergic rhinitis, chronic sinusitis, nasal polyps, and chronic respiratory conditions require further exploration.
Methods: In this study, a two-sample mendelian randomization was employed to explore the potential association between allergic rhinitis, nasal polyps, and chronic sinusitis with various chronic respiratory diseases. For the primary analysis, summary statistics related to chronic respiratory diseases were obtained from the UK Biobank of European ancestry.
