Background and Objectives : Although the incidence of allergic rhinitis has increased specific therapeutics with a certain medicine is not well developed yet. In therapeutics of allergic rhinitis, limited medicines just have been used in the clinin. Sochungyong-tang has been a widespread medicine for allergic rhinitis. However, okbyeongpung-san has been taken for raising immunity. In medical treatment of allergic rhinitis, raising immunity is a necessary part of the process. In this reason, this study aimed to find out therapeutic effects of combination of sochungyoung-tang and okbyeongpung-san extract on allergic rhinintis of nasal tissue in rats. Materials and Methods : The Sprague-Dawley male rats, about 200g of body weight, were divided into three groups: the normal group, the control groups, and the sample groups. With the Levine and Vaz method, the allergic reaction was induced with ovalbumin as antigen in the intraperitoneal route. Rats of the sample groups were treated with 2cc of sochungyoung-tang plus okbyeongpung-san extract once a day for 28days. I observed historical changes in nasal tissue. I also found changes in the segment of lympocyte and neutrophil of Leukocyte and erythrocyte. I used the statistical methods of post Hoc test(p<0.05) Results : The increase of the goblet cell and mucous secretion in the sample groups was rare when compared to the control groups. Effects of sochungyoung-tang plus okbyeongpung-san extract on the liver function were also studied in rats. Treatment of sochungyoung-tang plus okbyeongpung-san extract did not affect GOT and GPT. The number of lymphocyte was decreased, while the number of erythrocyte was increased in sample groups. Conclusion : This study shows that sochungyoung-tang plus okbyeongpung-san plus okbyeongpung-san extract has considerable effects on allergic rhinitis.

Background : Allergic rhinitis is an inflammation of the nasal mucosa which is characterized by sneezing, coughing itchy nose, mouth and throat, congestion and/or nasal discharge. Object : We have studied effects of the Okbyeongpung-san plus Socheongryong-tang on the change of the amounts of IL-4, II-5, $IFN-{\gamma}$ and total IgE in rats OVA-induced allergic rhinitis. Method : The 15 rats were divided into three groups ; normal group, control group, and sample group. To induce allergic rhinitis in control group and sample group , rats were sensitized intraperitoneally with 0.1% ovalbumin(OVA) solution 3 times at intervals of 1 week. Then intranasal sensitization was performed by diffusing 0.1% ovalbumin(OVA) solution 3 times at intervals of 2 days. After that time, rats in the sample group were oral administration treated by Okbyeongpung-san plus Socheongryong-tang 28 days. We observed the change of the amounts of IL-4, II-5, $IFN-{\gamma}$ and total IgE in rats in each grout. Result : 1. In Total IgE study, the treated group was proved significant inhibitory effect(p<0.05) 2. In Interleukin-4(IL-4) study, the treated group was proved significant inhibitory effect(p<0.001> 3. In IL-5 study, the treated group was proved significant inhibitory effect(p<0.001> 4. In Interferone-${\gamma}(IFN-{\gamma})$ study, the treated group was proved significant inhibitory effect(p<0.005) Conclusion : According to the above results, it is considered that the Okbyeongpung-san flus Socheongyong-tang has inhibitory effects on the allergic rhinitis of rats.

Objective: To research the trends of study related to rhinitis and acupuncture in PubMed, and to establish the hereafter direction of treating rhinitis with acupuncture Methods: We searched PubMed and chinese medical journals related to rhinitis and acupuncture. Results: 1. The pattern of the study was as follows: Review article(3), Randomized controlled trials(2), Clinical trial(11), Case report(12). 2. The effect of acupuncture on rhinitis is reported as follows: Acupucture treatment improves the scale of symptoms, nasal airways resistance and velocity of the mucociliary transport, decreasing absolute numbers of blood eosinophils, serum IgE and percentage of nasal eosinophils. Immunologically acupuncture treatment could reduce plasma IL-10 level, control IL-2, and balance between cell-specific pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines, TNF-${\alpha}$ and IL-10. After acupuncture treatment, there is statistically significant changes in IgA, IgE, E-rosette formative rate. 3. Many of these article have affirmative view for therapeutic effect of rhinitis with acupuncture. Statistical test was done only in 6 papers. There showed statically significant results in 4 articles, and in 2 article there showed some clinical improvement but no statically significant changes. 4. In Western countries, alternative treatments are frequent among adults with rhinitis or other allergic disease, and affirmative tendency for acupuncture treatment is increased.

Objectives : The study was designed to find out the relationships between rhinitis, quality of sleep, growth among children with chronic rhinitis. Methods : This research was performed in 50 children from November 2007 to May 2008. We measured height, weight, body mass index of those children and asked to answer to the questionnaires that consist of nasal symptoms, period of time with rhinitis, sleep symptoms, parent's height, present illness, and medical history. We also analyzed correlations with this factors obtained from questionnaires. Results : 1. In 50 subjects, there were significant correlations between nasal obstruction, the quality of sleep, and the between quality of sleep and growth. But, there were not significant correlations between nasal symptoms and growth. 2. In 24 preschool children, frequency of waking up during sleeping and the number of snorers were higher and quality of sleeping was worse than those in the children who were attending school. And there were significant correlations between quality of sleep and nasal obstruction. An average of RH-MPH(Recent Height-Mid-Parental Height) is $-7.74{\pm}36.51(%)$ which means they aren't as tall as MPH(Mid-Parental Height). 3. In 26 school children, there were significant correlations between symptoms and period of rhinitis, quality of sleep and growth. Conclusions : Children with chronic rhinitis have low quality of sleep and low growth. But more studies are needed.

Objectives: This study investigated the effects of Douchi Hataedock on Th2-skewed conditions to control allergic rhinitis. Methods: NC/Nga mice were divided into three groups: 10 mice were assigned to the control group (CTRL; no treatment), 10 mice to allergic rhinitis-induced (ARE) without treatment group, and 10 mice to the allergic rhinitis-induced (FGT) after Douchi Hataedock treatment group. The 3-week-old mice of the FGT group were given one 10 mg/kg dose of Douchi Hataedock extract and resensitized to allergic antigens at weeks four, five, and six. Allergic rhinitis was induced primarily in mice nasal cavities for five days after one week of final sensitization. The second induction used the same method one week after the first induction was completed. After one week, the nasal mucosal tissues of each group were observed. Immunohistochemical staining for IL-4, STAT6, CD40, $Fc{\varepsilon}RI$, substance P, MMP-9, $NF-{\kappa}B$ p65, p-IkB, and iNOS in the nasal mucosa was also performed. Results: The FGT group had less respiratory epithelial damage and less mucin secretion in goblet cells than the ARE group and showed a 62% decrease in IL-4, 85% decrease in STAT6, 71% decrease in CD40, 69% decrease in $Fc{\varepsilon}RI$, 43% decrease in substance P, 49% decrease in MMP-9, 43% decrease in NF-kB p65, 38% decrease in p-IkB, and 73% decrease in iNOS compared to the ARE group. Conclusions: Douchi Hataedock lessens inflammation in epithelial and goblet cells and reduces inflammatory mediator secretion in a mouse allergic rhinitis model.

E. N. T. Clinic에 내원하는 환자중 nasal symptoms을 호소하는 환자의 높은 비율에서 알레르기 질환이 있는 것을 느끼게 되며 특히 nasal cavity내에 오는 질환의 원인 중 알레르기가 놀라울 정도로 많은 것을 생각하면 이비인후과 영역에서의 알레르기에 대한 관심도 높다고 하겠읍니다. 일반적으로 비용증, 만성비염. 만성부비동염의 치료 방법으로는 약물요법과 수술요법을 병행하여 시행하는데 치료후 증상이 호전되다가 다시 계속적인 치료전의 증상이 재발되는 경우를 흔히 경험하게 된다. 특히 비용증 환자의 치료에서는 높은율의 재발을 경험하게 되는데 nasal symptoms을 일으키는 질환의 많은 원인이 allergy 라는데 착안하여 allegy symptoms은 호소하지 않았으나 비용증을 동반한 만성부비동염 환자에 수술 및 일반치료를 시행하였으나 얼마후 증상이 재현되어 Rinkels technique의 allergy test를 시행 하였다. 특정한 allergen에 양성을 보이지는 않았으나 일반적으로 nasal allergy의 많은 원인이 되는 House dust와 Mold groups의 allergen을 이용 (#2 ∼ #3 Solution)하여 계속적인 Desensitization을 시행함으로서 근치에 가까운 효과를 얻었기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이며 이러한 환자들에게 계속적인 allergy test상 양성반응을 보이지 않더라도 위의 방법을 적용하여 치료한 결과를 추후 발표드릴 것을 약속드립니다.

Background & Objectives : Rhinitis is an inflammation of nasal mucosa and the symtoms are watery rhinorrhea, sneezing, itchy nose, and nasal obstruction. Rhinitis is classified into allergic rhinitis and nonallergic. Allergic rhinitis is an immune reaction by allergen, and vasomotor rhinitis which is nonallergic noninfectious hypersensitive reaction. The incidence of allergic rhinitis has increased and the rate of vasomotor rhinitis is high. However there have been no studies about vasomotor rhinitis compared with allergic rhinitis. And there have been no studies so far performed on the effect of Tongkwansan. Therefore this study is aimed to find out the effects of Tongkwansan on allergic rhinitis and vasomotor rhinitis. Materials and Methods : Fifteen BALC/c mouses divided into three groups : normal group, control group and sample group. To induce the allergic rhinitis in control group and sample group, mouses were sensitized intrapertioneally 0.1 % ovalvumin solution three times at intervals of 1 week. Then intranasal sensitization was performed by diffusing 0.1 % ovalbumin solution 3 times at intervals of 2 days. After that time, mouses in the sample group were oral and administration treated by Tongkwansan for 28 days. We observed changes in nasal mucosa and submucosa; also changes in the segment of leucocyte, erythrocyte, neutrophil, lymphocyte, monocyte, eosinophil, IL-4 and $IFN-{\gamma}$ in blood. We used the statistical methods of ANOVA test(p<0.05). Results : There were no significant changes statistically in leucocyte, erythrocyte, neutrophil, lymphocytem, monocyte, eosinophil, IL-4 and $IFN-{\gamma}$ in blood(p<0.05). Hypertrophy of epithelium in nasal mucosa and expansion of glandular cells in nasal submucosa were decreased in treated group when compared with control group. Conclusion : According to above results, it is supposed that Tongkwansan has significant effects on vasomotor rhinitis which is nonallergic and noninfectious.

Objectives : Allergic rhinitis is an inflammation or irritation of the mucous membranes that in the nose. Common symptoms include sneezing; a stuffy or runny nose; itch eyes, nose and throat; and watery eyes. We aimed to determine therapeutic effect of Onpye-tang by observing changes in blood cells and the nasal mucosal tissue. Methods : Twenty-four Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups: normal, control, and sample group. Allergic rhinitis was induced in the control and sample group by intraperitoneal and intranasal sensitization with 0.l% Ovalbumin solution. Then Onpye-tang was orally administered only to the sample group for 28days, while the rats in the control group was given normal saline. We observed changes in the number of RBC and WBC; changes of neutrophils, lymphocyte, monocyte, and eosinophil proportions; total IgE level and AST & ALT change; also, changes in the nasal mucosal tissue. We used Student T-test statistically(p<0.05). Results : Onpye-tang showed significantly decreased IgE level on the serum of the rat model. Onpye-tang showed significantly decreased eosinophil level on the blood of the rat model. Onpye-tang inhibited the inflammatory reaction on the nasal mucosal tissue, according to nasal mucosal biopsy. Onpye-tang showed an inhibitory effect on the process of allergic rhinitis, according to IgE level, Eosinophil level, nasal mucosal biopsy. Onpye-tang had no hepatoxicity, according to AST and ALT on the serum. Conclusion : According to the above results, it is considered that Onpye-tang has an inhibitory effect on the process of allergic rhinitis and it can be used in relieving symptoms of allergic rhinitis.

Objectives : We performed a clinical study to investigate characteristics of pattern identifications using nasal endoscopy for allergic rhinitis (AR). Methods : We assessed 32 patients with allergic rhinitis using nasal endoscopy, classifications of allergic rhinitis and it's impact on asthma (ARIA) and total nasal symptom score (TNSS). Results : The watery rhinorrhea score of nasal endoscopy was significantly high in 'persistent and moderate/severe' group (P<0.05). Patients were classified as rhinorrhea group and nasal obstruction group according to nasal endoscopy. TNSS and rhinorrhea score was significantly high in rhinorrhea group (P<0.05). Conclusions : The result may provide that the watery rhinorrhea of nasal endoscopy is useful as 'Cold' and 'Deficiency' pattern identification diagnostic tool.
