    Notizen: Cetirizine, an antihistamine widely used in the treatment of allergic rhinoconjunctivitis, also has antiallergic activity. The present study aimed to evaluate cetirizine as a treatment for children with allergic cough due to pollen allergy. This was a parallel-group, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study. Twenty children with pollinosis were enrolled: they were subdivided into two groups receiving a 1-month treatment during the pollen season. The following variables were monitored: 1) clinical symptoms and respiratory data (spirometry and PEF) evaluated at baseline and at the end of the study by allergists and by a daily diary card, and 2) pollen count. This study shows that cetirizine treatment reduces cough intensity (P 〈 0.05) and frequency (p 〈 0.01). In conclusion, cetirizine does clinically improve cough due to pollen allergy.

    Notizen: Background Loratadine and cetirizine are new generation antihistamines, which are clinically effective in the treatment of allergic rhinitis.Objective The aim of the study was to evaluate antiallergic activity of loratadine compared with cetirizine, over a 2 week period under natural allergen exposure, in a double-blind parallel groups, randomized, controlled trial.Methods Twenty patients, sensitized to grass and/or Parietaria pollen, were subdivided into two groups, one receiving loratadine the other cetirizine respectively. Both were dosed at 10 mg/day. Evaluated parameters were: clinical symptoms, nasal inflammatory cell (such as neutrophil, eosinophil and metachromatic cells) counts, ICAM-1 expression on nasal epithelial cells, and nasal mediators (e.g. histamine, ECP, EPO and MPO).Results Loratadine and cetirizine significantly improved symptoms (P 〈 0.002), significantly reduced eosinophil (P 〈 0.016) and metachromatic cell (P 〈 0.01) infiltration, levels of ECP (F 〈 0.002), EPO (P 〈 0.006) and histamine (P 〈 0.01) and ICAM-1 expression on nasal epithelial cells (P 〈 0.02). No difference was demonstrated between the two drugs.Conclusion The antiallergic activity of loratadine and cetirizine is documented by their actions on the inflammatory and clinical parameters, especially ICAM-1 modulation.

    Notizen: Background Cetirizine is an antihistamine, largely used in the treatment of allergic rhinoconjunctivitis, which also exerts anti-allergic activity.Objectives To evaluate cetirizine as treatment for children with rhinitis due to pollen allergy, and to evaluate its anti-allergic activity in such a clinical condition.Methods The study was designed as parallel groups, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized. Twenty allergic children were enroled and subdivided in two groups, receiving a 4 week treatment during the pollen season. The following parameters were monitored: clinical symptoms evaluated by the allergist before and after treatment and by the patients through a daily diary card, inflammatory cells count, expression of ICAM-1 on nasal epithelial cells, inflammatory mediator levels in nasal Iavage and peripheral blood before and after treatment, and pollen counts.Results This study shows that cetirizine treatment is able to reduce: clinical symptoms (P 〈 0.01), inflammatory cell infiltrate (P 〈 0.03), ICAM-1 expression on epithelial cells (P 〈 0.05), and soluble ICAM-1 (P 〈 0.05) and ECP (P 〈 0.05) in nasal lavage.Conclusion Cetirizine is able to clinically improve nasal symptoms due to pollen allergy and to reduce allergic inflammation, which is related to allergen exposure.

    Notizen: Background: Rhinoconjunetivitis caused by pollen allergy is characterized by typical signs and symptoms and mucosal infiltration by inflammatory cells during the pollen season. It has recently been demonstrated that the adhesion molecule system is deeply involved in cell-to-cell interaction during the inflammatory response which follows allergic reactions.Objective: The aim of the present study (placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized) was the evaluation of the antiallergic activity of Terfenadine in the model of the allergic rhinitis due to natural pollen exposure.Methods: Two groups of patients with pollen allergy were enrolled in this study. Ten patients were treated with Terfenadine (120mg/die) for 7 days and 10 with placebo. Evaluation criteria were: (a) clinical: signs and symptoms (recorded daily in a dian card by patients): (b) cytological: inflammatory cell count (neutrophils, eosinophils, metachromatic cells) from nasal lavage at T0 and T7; (c) immunocytochemical: ICAM-1/CD54 expression on nasal epithelial cells at T0 and T7; and (d) mediators dosage (ECP-MPO) on nasal lavage at T0 and T7.Results: As opposed to the placebo group, patients treated with Terfenadine showed a significant improvement of both symptoms (P〈 0.022) and signs P〈 0.001), a significant reduction of inflammatory cells infiltrate (P〈 0.005), of ECP levels (P 〈 0.002) and ICAM-I expression on nasal epithelial cells (P 〈 0.005).Conlusions: In conclusion, these data demonstrate that Terfenadine exerts antiallergic activity since it is able to reduce inflammatory cell infiltrate and downregulates ICAM-1 expression.

    Notizen: Background: Allergic reaction is characterized by a complex inflammatory process. Some of the new antihistamines have antiallergic effects and can affect the inflammatory cell recruitment via adhesion molecule downregulation. We aimed to assess in a 12-month study whether continuous treatment with an antihistamine (terfenadine) can reduce respiratory symptoms and local inflammation in children with mite allergy. Methods: The study was double-blind and placebo-controlled: it involved two parallel groups of children suffering from rhinoconjunctivitis and/or mild intermittent asthma due to mite allergy. They received either terfenadine (1 mg/kg per body weight per day) or placebo for 1 year. Nasal, conjunctival, and bronchial symptoms were recorded by diary cards; at each of the programmed control visits, a nasal scraping for inflammatory cells and ICAM-1 was performed. Some additional clinical parameters were also recorded: days of school absence, extra visits for acute respiratory symptoms, and days of hospital admission. Results: Only children treated with terfenadine achieved significant control of symptoms (P〈0.05 in 8 out of 12 months) and allergic inflammation, as shown by inflammatory cell infiltrate and ICAM-1 expression at nasal level (P〈0.001), and had significantly fewer extra visits and school absences than the placebo group (P〈0.03). No side-effects were reported in either group. Conclusions: The present study demonstrates that continuous terfenadine treatment (1 mg/kg body weight per day) could decrease respiratory symptoms and allergic inflammation, and it had an additional antiallergic effect in reducing ICAM-1 expression on nasal epithelial cells. Therefore, the present results confirm the efficacy of a long-term therapeutic strategy in controlling allergic inflammation.
