About

Chronic rhinitis is a common chronic nasal mucosal inflammatory disease. Its clinical symptoms and severity are diverse, mainly including allergic rhinitis, local allergic rhinitis, non-allergic rhinitis with hypereosinophilia syndrome and idiopathic rhinitis. All kinds of rhinitis have clinical symptoms such as nasal congestion, runny nose, sneezing, and nasal itching, but the causes are different. At present, the complicated diagnostic methods of different subtypes of chronic rhinitis are an important factor restricting the improvement of clinical diagnosis and treatment. Based on the found key markers of each subtype of chronic rhinitis, the establishment of a non-invasive classification diagnostic method of chronic rhinitis with nasal secretion as the core is of great practical significance for optimizing the existing clinical diagnosis system and improving the efficiency of clinical diagnosis

Full description

To study the characteristic transcriptome, proteome and metabolome molecules of nasal secretions of different subtypes of chronic rhinitis, and to establish a non-invasive diagnostic method for chronic rhinitis based on nasal secretions.Nasal secretions and blood were collected from patients with chronic rhinitis.
