Injection allergen immunotherapy for asthma Abramson MJ, Puy RM, Weiner JM Search strategy We searched the Cochrane Airways Group Trials Register up to 2005, This version first published online: July 27. 1998 Last assessed as up-to-date: April 12. 2009 Authors' conclusions Immunotherapy reduces asthma symptoms and use of asthma medications and improves bronchial hyper-reactivity. One trial found that the size of the benefit is possibly comparable to inhaled steroids. The possibility of local or systemic adverse effects (such as anaphylaxis) must be considered.
Γιατί αυτή η σχέση ρινίτιδας/άσθματος είναι σημαντική;;

SLIT is certainly indicated in allergic rhinitis in both adults and children SLIT may exert a preventative effect on the development of asthma SLIT can be used also when asthma is associated to rhinitis, whereas it is not the first choice for the treatment of isolated asthma

How strong is the evidence that immunotherapy in children prevents the progression of allergy and asthma? Lars Jacobsen and Erkka Valovirta Current Opinion in Allergy and Clinical Immunology 2007, 7:556 560 Recent findings: long-term follow-up on IT studies demonstrates that: SIT for 3 years shows persistent long-term effects on clinical symptoms after termination of treatment and preventive effects on later development of asthma in children with seasonal rhinoconjunctivitis. IT seems to reduce the development of new allergic sensitivities

How strong is the evidence that immunotherapy in children prevents the progression of allergy and asthma? Lars Jacobsen and Erkka Valovirta Current Opinion in Allergy and Clinical Immunology 2007, 7:556 560 Evidence for long-term prevention The category of evidence for the long-term effect of SIT is Ib for SCIT Since BHR in children with seasonal allergic rhinitis is significantly related to an increased risk for later development of asthma it could be considered to include evaluation of BHR in the indication of immunotherapy.
