ARIA 2016: Care pathways implementing emerging technologies for predictive medicine in rhinitis and asthma across the life cycle
2016
The Allergic Rhinitis and its Impact on Asthma (ARIA) initiative commenced during a World Health Organization workshop in 1999. The initial goals were (1) to propose a new allergic rhinitis classification, (2) to promote the concept of multi-morbidity in asthma and rhinitis and (3) to develop guidelines with all stakeholders that could be used globally for all countries and populations. ARIA-disseminated and implemented in over 70 countries globally-is now focusing on the implementation of emerging technologies for individualized and predictive medicine. MASK [MACVIA (Contre les Maladies Chroniques pour un Vieillissement Actif)-ARIA Sentinel NetworK] uses mobile technology to develop care p…
Relationship between airway sensitivity to adenosine 5' monophosphate and the shape of the concentration-response curve to methacholine in subjects w…
2001
Abstract The objective of this study was to determine differences in airway sensitivity to adenosine 5′-monophosphate (AMP) between allergic rhinitis subjects with plateau and those without evidence of plateau on the concentration–response curves to methacholine. A total of 51 adults (38 subjects with allergic rhinitis and 13 healthy controls) were challenged with increasing concentrations of methacholine and AMP. The methacholine challenge was terminated when there was a 40% or more decrease in forced expiratory volume in 1 sec (FEV 1 ), whereas the AMP challenge was stopped when FEV 1 had fallen by more than 20%. A plateau for methacholine was detected in all 13 healthy controls and in 27…
Climate advocacy among Italian pediatric pulmonologists: A national survey on the effects of climate change on respiratory allergies.
2022
Climate change (CC) is expected to negatively impact respiratory health due to air pollution and increased aeroallergen exposure. Children are among the most vulnerable populations due to high ventilation rates, small peripheral airways, and developing respiratory and immunological systems. To assess the current knowledge among Italian pediatric pulmonologists on the potential effects of CC on pediatric respiratory allergic diseases, a national survey was launched online from February 2020 to February 2021. The members of the Italian Pediatric Respiratory Society (SIMRI) were contacted by email and 117 questionnaires were returned (response rate 16.4%). 72.6% of respondents were females, 53…

Scaling up strategies of the chronic respiratory disease programme of the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing (Action Plan B…
2016
Action Plan B3 of the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing (EIP on AHA) focuses on the integrated care of chronic diseases. Area 5 (Care Pathways) was initiated using chronic respiratory diseases as a model. The chronic respiratory disease action plan includes (1) AIRWAYS integrated care pathways (ICPs), (2) the joint initiative between the Reference site MACVIA-LR (Contre les MAladies Chroniques pour un VIeillissement Actif) and ARIA (Allergic Rhinitis and its Impact on Asthma), (3) Commitments for Action to the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing and the AIRWAYS ICPs network. It is deployed in collaboration with the World Health Organizatio…
A survey on features of allergic rhinitis in children
2013
Objective: A number of epidemiologic studies evaluated the prevalence of allergic rhinitis (AR), but few data are available on its different clinical presentations. We addressed this survey to assess the features of AR in children and adolescents. Methods: Thirty-five centers in Italy included 2623 pediatric patients with rhinitis, of whom 2319 suffered from AR, while 304 had other kinds of rhinitis. For each patient a standardized questionnaire was filled in, including ARIA classification, the duration of symptoms, the allergen identified as clinically relevant, the co-morbidities, the kind of treatment, the response to treatment, the satisfaction with the treatment, and the feasibility of…
Nasal provocation testing as an international standard for evaluation of allergic and nonallergic rhinitis.
2005
Standardized nasal provocation testing (NPT) has been shown to be a safe and very useful tool in the diagnosis of allergic and nonallergic rhinitis. However, in the United States, its use has been mostly limited to scientific investigations, and it has not yet been widely accepted as a standard diagnostic procedure in clinical practice. NPT aims to identify and quantify the clinical relevance of inhalant allergens or occupational irritants. During NPT, nasal respiratory mucosa is exposed to an airborne substance suspected to cause symptoms in the respective individual. Clinical reactions are monitored in a controlled and standardized fashion. Nasal secretions, symptoms such as itching, snee…
Guidance to 2018 good practice: ARIA digitally-enabled, integrated, person-centred care for rhinitis and asthma
2019
AIMS: Mobile Airways Sentinel NetworK (MASK) belongs to the Fondation Partenariale MACVIA-LR of Montpellier, France and aims to provide an active and healthy life to rhinitis sufferers and to those with asthma multimorbidity across the life cycle, whatever their gender or socio-economic status, in order to reduce health and social inequities incurred by the disease and to improve the digital transformation of health and care. The ultimate goal is to change the management strategy in chronic diseases. METHODS: MASK implements ICT technologies for individualized and predictive medicine to develop novel care pathways by a multi-disciplinary group centred around the patients. STAKEHOLDERS: Incl…
Tendencia temporal y variaciones geográficas de la prevalencia de síntomas de rinitis alérgica en escolares de 6-7 años de ocho áreas españolas, segú…
2005
Antecedentes: Se presenta la fase III del estudio ISAAC (International Study of Asthma and other Allergies in Childhood) en escolares de 6-7 años de ocho áreas españolas para estimar la tendencia temporal y variaciones geográficas de los síntomas de rinitis alérgica. Material y método: Se comparan las prevalencias de síntomas de rinitis alérgica entre la fase I y fase III, efectuadas entre los años 1993-1994 y 2001-2002, mediante un cuestionario estandarizado y validado según metodología ISAAC, cumplimentado por los padres de los escolares. Participaron ocho centros de Asturias, Barcelona, Bilbao, Cartagena, Castellón, Madrid, Pamplona y Valencia. Se empleó la regresión de Poisson en el aná…
Respiratoro alerģisko reakciju novērtējums Latvijas populācijā
2016
Pasaulē saslimstība ar alerģijām aizvien turpina pieaugt. No dažādām alerģiskām slimībām cieš aptuveni 30 – 40% pasaules iedzīvotāju. Respiratorās alerģijas ir biežāk sastopamās alerģijas formas. Zināms, ka no alerģiska rinīta pasaulē cieš aptuveni 5 – 50% populācijas, bet no bronhiālās astmas 5 – 12%. Par maģistra darba pētījuma mērķi izvirzījām, izmantojot Paula Stradiņa Klīniskās universitātes slimnīcas plaušu funkcionālās diagnostikas kabineta datu bāzi, noskaidrot kādi ir biežākie alergēni Latvijas populācijā, kas izraisa respiratorās alerģijas un kādi medikamenti visbiežāk tiek izmantoti to terapijai. Tika noskaidrots, ka biežākie alergēni Latvijas populācijā, kas izsauc respiratorās …
