The Allergic Rhinitis and its Impact on Asthma (ARIA) initiative commenced during a World Health Organization workshop in 1999.
The selection of pharmacotherapy for patients with allergic rhinitis aims to control the disease and depends on many factors.
Given the relationship between allergic rhinitis (AR) and asthma, it can be hypothesized that reducing inflammation in the upper airway with intranasal corticosteroid (INCS) medications may improve asthma outcomes.
Asthma is often associated with various comorbidities. The most frequently reported asthma comorbid conditions include rhinitis, sinusitis, gastroesophageal reflux disease, obstructive sleep apnea, hormonal disorders and psychopathologies.
The revised guideline includes assessment of diagnosis/treatment and prescriptions for children and pregnant women, for broad clinical applications.
Backround: Visual analogue scales (VAS) are psychometric measuring instruments designed to document the characteristics of disease-related symptom severity in individual patients and use this to achieve a rapid (statistically measurable and reproducible) classification of symptom severity and disease control.
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) is a validated tool to assess control in allergic rhinitispatients .
Background: Chronic respiratory diseases are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. We sought to evaluate the impact of asthma, chronic bronchitis and allergic rhinitis on all-cause hospitalizations and limitations in daily activities in adults.

Background: The aim of this study was to describe differences between allergic and non-allergic asthma in a large community-based sample of Danish adolescents and adults.
