Comparison of 1α-25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and IgE Levels between Allergic Rhinitis Patients and Healthy People

Abstract: Introduction  Allergic rhinitis is one of the most common allergic diseases that cause a decrease in quality of life. Over the last decades, the increase in the number of cases is supposed to be a result of industrialization and lifestyle changes. Vitamin D, which is a steroid hormone, has a significant immunomodulatory and antioxidant role in the human body. Objective  The objective of the present study is to investigate the role of 1α-25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 levels in allergic rhinitis patients and to compar… Show more

“…In this study, the mean serum IgE level in moderate-severe AR patients was 383.69±154.86 IU/mL. This is comparable to a study conducted in Turkey in 2018 by Mehmet Gokhan Demir, which included 256 patients and reported levels of 453.6±15.3 IU/ml in patients [18]. Our study findings are also comparable to the study of Osisi K et al conducted in Nigeria in 2017, which revealed a statistically significant difference in serum IgE levels in the AR and normal population (252±60 IU/ml in patients and 106±117.95 IU/ml in healthy population) [19].…”

“…The prevalence of self-reported AR has been estimated to range from 2 to 25% in children and from 1 to 40% in adults. The prevalence of confirmed AR in adults in Europe ranges from 17 to 28.5% [2]. Recent studies have shown that the prevalence of AR has increased from 11.1 to 17.6% in Chinese adults [3].…”

“…The relationship between vitamin D status and risk of aeroallergen sensitization and atopic pathology is supported by many observational studies and reviews 9‐12 . However, a Mendelian randomization study design did not find that evidence 29 ; neither did birth cohort studies reveal consistent results, 30,31 finding only an apparent protective effect for lower respiratory tract infection and wheezing 32,33 .…”

“…The relationship between vitamin D status and risk of aeroallergen sensitization and atopic pathology is supported by many observational studies and reviews. [9][10][11][12] However, a Mendelian randomization study design did not find that evidence 29 ; neither did birth cohort studies reveal consistent results, 30,31 finding only an apparent protective effect for lower respiratory tract infection and wheezing. 32,33 In addition, trial studies that supplemented with vitamin D found no benefit in preventing allergic diseases, 34 while the only benefit found was for the control of asthma symptoms and in reducing the severity of atopic dermatitis.…”
