Abstract In a trial to evaluate the functional status of the bronchial system in allergic rhinitis and studying the clinical and physiologic links between allergic rhinitis and asthma, this study was carried out on 107 patients with allergic rhinitis. 53.3% of them proved to have asthma and 28.03% proved to have different grades of bronchial hyper-reactivity. BHR positive patients had lower FEF 25-75 values than BHR negative. There was a positive correlation between degree of BHR and eosinophils in blood and sputum. |
