Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the clinical efficacy and safety of ganciclovir (GCV) capsules in the treatment of refractory moderate-to-severe allergic rhinitis. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Whether ganciclovir improve nasal symptoms and life quality in patients with refractory moderate-to-severe allergic rhinitis. 2. Whether ganciclovir is safe for the treatment of allergic rhinitis. Participants with refractory moderate-to-severe allergic rhinitis will be included in the trial based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and randomized into experimental and control groups. The two groups will be treated with blinded ganciclovir capsules or placebo for two weeks, with the background therapy of mometasone furoate aqueous nasal spray. A placebo is a look-alike capsule that contains no active drug. Nasal symptom scores, nasal secretions, blood samples and adverse events will be collected during the visits. Researchers will compare the experimental and control groups to see whether ganciclovir improve symptoms and is safe for the treatment of refractory moderate-to-severe allergic rhinitis.
Chronic rhinitis affects 10-40% of China's population, or over 300 million people, and can lead to respiratory and psychological issues. Despite treatment progress, 30% of patients have poor outcomes, likely due to the disease's complexity and a lack of new treatment targets. The incidence is rising, but there's a lack of nationwide studies on its variations. This study addresses this through a multicentric survey to create a national database on chronic rhinitis, including epidemiological, clinical, and biological data. The goal is to understand chronic rhinitis's causes and risks, improve treatments, and develop preventive strategies. The study will survey 30,000 patients across China, using questionnaires and nasal exams, and preserve biological samples in a biobank for detailed analysis. This will lay the groundwork for understanding the disease's mechanisms, developing new diagnostics, and tailoring prevention and treatment approaches for different forms of chronic rhinitis.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of lebrikizumab in adult participants with perennial allergic rhinitis. The study will last about 18 months
Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a global health problem affecting approximately 10% to 40% of the population worldwide, with an increasing trend. It significantly impacts health and quality of life. Current treatments for AR include allergen avoidance, symptom-relieving medications, anti-inflammatory therapy, and allergen-specific immunotherapy. However, many patients still experience uncontrolled symptoms despite these approaches, either as monotherapy or in combination, along with medication side effects such as drowsiness, dry eyes, nasal mucosal damage, and immunosuppression. Auricular acupressure therapy (AAT) utilizes ear acupoints by applying pressure with ear seeds. The neurobiological mechanisms of AAT on the human body have gained increasing attention in clinical and experimental studies, involving anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and immunomodulatory effects. Its efficacy has been recognized, becoming a potential alternative therapy for various conditions such as sleep disorders, obesity, and chronic pain. Previous clinical studies have reported the efficacy and safety of AAT in treating AR. However, the primary outcomes of these studies remain inconsistent and lack specific criteria for evaluating AR treatment efficacy. This study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of AAT in treating AR based on the ARIA guideline 2019 treatment efficacy criteria. It will provide a basis for applying AAT as a complementary approach in the multimodal treatment of AR.
Septoplasty or septal reconstruction is a corrective surgical procedure performed to straighten the nasal septum. It may be associated with numerous complications. To minimize these complications, both nasal cavities are frequently packed with different types of nasal packing. In our study we will try to find relationship between duration of nasal packing and postrhinoplasty sore throat and pharyngitis.
Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a common condition, with nearly 300 million affected individuals in China, significantly impacting the quality of life. Despite standardized drug treatments, approximately 20% of AR patients experience inadequate control and require surgical intervention. AR manifests as nasal itching, sneezing, clear nasal discharge, nasal congestion, primarily associated with inflammation-induced hypertrophy of nasal turbinates and a heightened neurogenic state of the nasal mucosa. Surgical treatment focuses on "reducing hypertrophy" of nasal turbinates and "desensitizing" neurogenic hyperreactivity.High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), as a minimally invasive therapeutic modality in AR, is still in its early stages of application and requires further multicenter clinical studies and widespread adoption. This project collaborates with six established institutions proficient in ultrasound treatment for AR. It aims to conduct a prospective multicenter observational study and subsequent dissemination, emphasizing the application of "reduction of hypertrophy" and "desensitization" in AR.Through standardized case selection, subjective and objective measures such as subjective symptom scores, quality of life assessments, nasal reflex, and nasal resistance tests before and after treatment will be employed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of HIFU in "reducing hypertrophy" and "desensitizing" aspects of AR. Simultaneously, building on our established Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery Alliance and Southwest Allergy Alliance, the research results will be promoted through lectures, hands-on guidance, training sessions, academic conferences, and other means to facilitate the application of HIFU in AR and benefit a larger population of AR patients.
Allergic rhinitis (AR) currently affects ~25% of Canadians, and due to factors of climate change, this number is expected to increase over the coming decade. AR symptoms can significantly impact individuals' quality of life by compromising sleep, productivity, and social interactions. To alleviate AR symptoms, North Americans tend to rely on H1 antihistamine medications available over-the-counter (OTC) at most pharmacies. However, public health authorities currently suggest restraining all antihistamines during heat waves due to beliefs that M3 muscarinic receptor and H1 receptor antagonism, independent pharmacological mechanisms of H1 antihistamines, might suppress thermoregulatory responses to heat stress and increase individuals' susceptibility to heat-related illness/injury. To date, studies using supramaximal doses of antihistamines have demonstrated reductions in sweating, however these doses and administration routes are not the typical use case. Additional studies utilizing fexofenadine, a second-generation H1 antihistamine, have linked H1 receptor antagonism to reductions in skin blood flow, potentially impacting thermoregulation by reducing peripheral blood redistribution. Empirical evidence supporting OTC H1 antihistamines impacting thermoregulatory control at recommended doses is scarce. Thus, this study aims to systematically assess whether three common OTC H1 antihistamines, taken as prescribed, alter thermoregulatory responses during thermal stress.
