“…All studies obtained bilateral NPIF results. All studies used a nasal inspiratory flow meter (In‐Check; Clement Clarke International, Harlow, United Kingdom), except for one study where this was not specified 38 . Most studies performed NPIF in the sitting position except for one where patients were standing, 3 and six where position was not specified 2,4,15,32,38,40 .…”

Objectives Nasal peak inspiratory flow (NPIF) is a practical and affordable tool that measures maximum inspiratory flow rate through both nostrils. Although NPIF values for healthy controls and patients appear to differ considerably, a generally expected value for populations with and without nasal obstruction has yet to be established. The aim of this systematic review and meta‐analysis was to determine the mean NPIF value in populations with and without nasal obstruction. Methods Medline (1946–) and Embase (1947–) were searched until July 1, 2017. A search strategy was used to identify studies that reported NPIF values for defined healthy or disease states. All studies providing original data were included. The study population was defined as having either normal nasal breathing or nasal obstruction. A meta‐analysis of the mean data was presented in forest plots, and data were presented as mean (95% confidence interval [CI]). Results The search yielded 1,526 studies, of which 29 were included. The included studies involved 1,634 subjects with normal nasal breathing and 817 subjects with nasal obstruction. The mean NPIF value for populations with normal nasal breathing was 138.4 (95% CI: 127.9‐148.8) L/min. The mean value for populations with nasal obstruction was 97.5 (95% CI: 86.1‐108.8) L/min. Conclusions Current evidence confirms a difference between mean NPIF values of populations with and without nasal obstruction. The mean value of subjects with no nasal obstruction is 138.4 L/min, and the mean value of nasally obstructed populations is 97.5 L/min. Prospective studies adopting a standardized procedure are required to further assess normative NPIF values. Laryngoscope, 131:260–267, 2021

Impacto de la Inmunoterapia subcutánea con Dermatophagoides farinae y Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus sobre la calidad de vida de pacientes con rinitis y asma alérgica

Impacto de la inmunoterapia subcutánea conDermatophagoides farinae y Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus sobre la calidad de vida de pacientes con rinitis y asma alérgica Introducción. Como sucede en otras partes del mundo, la prevalencia de asma y rinitis alérgica en Colombia está en aumento. Se ha establecido que la inmunoterapia subcutánea con alérgenos es eficaz a largo plazo en pacientes con rinitis alérgica y asma sensibilizados a Dermophagoides. Objetivo. Proveer evidencia sobre los cambios relacionados con la calidad de vida inducidos por la inmunoterapia subcutánea en sujetos con alergia respiratoria. Materiales y métodos. Se seleccionaron 76 sujetos con diagnóstico de alergia respiratoria con sensibilización a Dermatophagoides farinae y Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus. Para la evaluación de la calidad de vida se emplearon los instrumentos Kidscreen-27 y SF-36 (Short form 36). Estos instrumentos se aplicaron en dos ocasiones: durante la primera visita, en la cual se iniciaba la inmunoterapia subcutánea, y un año después de haberse iniciado el tratamiento.Resultados. Al año de estar recibiendo la inmunoterapia, los 22 sujetos que completaron el estudio presentaron cambios positivos en términos de calidad de vida. En los niños, el principal cambio se presentó en el dominio del 'entorno escolar' mientras que en los adultos fue en el de la 'función física'. Discusión. Se evaluaron por primera vez en Colombia los beneficios inducidos por la inmunoterapia subcutánea para ácaros de polvo en la calidad de vida de sujetos con rinitis alérgica y asma mediante los cuestionarios Kidscreen-27 y SF-36. Los resultados proveen evidencia de que la inmunoterapia subcutánea influye positivamente en la calidad de vida en sujetos con rinitis asmática y asma sensibilizados a los ácaros de polvo. The impact of subcutaneous immunotherapy with Dermatophagoides farinae and Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus on the quality of life of patients with allergic rhinitis and asthma Introduction: The prevalence of asthma and allergic rhinitis in Colombia is increasing at the same rate as it is in other parts of the world. It has been determined that allergen-specific subcutaneous immunotherapy is effective in subjects with allergic rhinitis and asthma that are sensitized to house dust mites: Dermatophagoides farinae and Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus. Objective: To provide evidence on changes in the quality of life of subjects induced by allergen-specific subcutaneous immunotherapy with Dermatophagoides farinae and Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus. Materials and methods:We selected 76 subjects with a diagnosis of respiratory allergy with sensitization to Dermatophagoides farinae and Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus. The instruments used for evaluating the quality of life were Kidscreen-27 and SF-36. These instruments were applied twice for each subject: once during the fir...

“…The impact of AR in populations can be measured by the economic loss due to absenteeism from work and school, as well as low performance in daily activities of adults and children (5) . Additionally, AR decreases quality of life, because respiratory symptoms are the main factors related with low quality of life (6,7) .…”

Health-related quality of life in children and adults with respiratory allergy in Colombia: Prospective study

Abstract: Mental health is more affected than physical health in Colombian subjects with respiratory allergy. There was a strong correlation between the mental health domain and the values of PEF in patients with asthma/allergic rhinitis.
