Allergic Rhinitis and Its Impact on Asthma

TL;DR: This systematic review and meta-analyses confirmed the findings of a previous study published in “Rhinitis and Asthma: Causes and Prevention, 2nd Ed.” (2015) as well as new findings of “Mechanisms of Respiratory Disease and Allergology,” which confirmed the role of EMTs in the development of these diseases.

Safety and tolerability profiles of intranasal antihistamines and intranasal corticosteroids in the treatment of allergic rhinitis.

TL;DR: Intranasal therapy has a very favourable benefit/risk ratio and is the preferred route of administration for corticosteroids in the treatment of this disease, as well as an important option for antihistaminic therapy, particularly if rapid symptom relief is required.

Inhibition of calcium ionophore (A23187)-stimulated histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells by azelastine: implications for its mode of action.

TL;DR: The data suggest that azelastine inhibits A23187-stimulated histamine release by interfering with the influx of Ca2+ into the mast cells, which is antagonized by high concentrations of exogenous Ca2- ions.

Inhibition of allergic histamine release by azelastine and selected antiallergic drugs from rabbit leukocytes.

TL;DR: Azelastine is a potent inhibitor of allergic histamine secretion from the leukocytes of ragweed-sensitized rabbits and is about 2, 4, 13 and greater than 200 times as effective as ketotifen, diphenhydramine, theophylline and DSCG, respectively.

Inhibition of leukotriene (SRS-A)-mediated acute lung anaphylaxis by azelastine in guinea pigs.

TL;DR: Azelastine is an orally effective and long‐acting inhibitor of in vivo synthesis and/or release of leukotrienes and produced weak, inconsistent and nondose‐related antianaphylactic effects.

Beneficial effects of propylene and polyethylene glycol and saline in the treatment of perennial rhinitis

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that wetting agents offer both subjective and objective improvement in the treatment of perennial rhinitis and merit consideration prior to (or along with) other agents with known systemic side effects.
