简要总结
The aim of the study is to assess the effect of specific immunotherapy (SIT) to dust mites on clinical symptoms, reliever drugs usage, inhaled glucocorticosteroid usage, quality of life, lung function, chosen markers of inflammation, induction of regulatory lymphocytes, bronchial hyperreactivity with methacholine, and presence and type of allergy after two years of SIT in children with asthma.
详细描述
Specific immunotherapy is the only one causal treatment method of atopic diseases including bronchial asthma in children.
The aim of the study is to assess the effect of specific immunotherapy (SIT) to dust mites on clinical symptoms,reliever drugs usage, inhaled glucocorticosteroid usage, quality of life, lung function, chosen markers of inflammation, induction of regulatory lymphocytes, bronchial hyperreactivity with methacholine, and presence and type of allergy after two years of SIT in children with asthma.
