简要总结
Allergic rhinitis is a common inflammatory condition of the nasal mucosa, characterized by symptoms such as nasal congestion, rhinorrhoea, sneezing, and nasal itching, often triggered by allergens. It affects a noteworthy portion of the population worldwide, leading to impaired quality of life, productivity losses, and substantial healthcare costs. The current standard treatments for allergic rhinitis include antihistamines, intranasal corticosteroids, and allergen immunotherapy.
Recent research has increasingly focused on the role of the gut microbiota in modulating immune responses and inflammatory conditions, including allergic diseases.
Probiotics, are defined as live microorganisms that offer health benefits when administered in adequate amounts.
Several studies have suggested that specific probiotic strains can promote immune tolerance and reduce allergic responses.
Despite the promising evidence we have failed to document the evidence of the use of probiotics in individuals with allergic rhinitis in the area specific to Pondicherry and Cuddalore of Tamil Nadu.
This study aims to contribute to the growing body of evidence by conducting a randomized controlled trial to investigate the impact of probiotics on allergic rhinitis symptoms and immune markers.
Aim
- To asses Effectiveness of reducing symptoms and immunology marker levels .i.e. AEC count and Ige using probiotics as an adjunct with standard treatment for patients having Allergic Rhinitis.
