%0 Journal Article %T Allergy Tests in Allergic Rinite Patients %A Z¨¹beyde D£¿N£¿ER %J - %D 2019 %X Objective: Allergic Rhinitis (AR) is seasonal or year-round, common disease seen with several symptoms (pruritis at throat or nose, sneezing). The diagnosis of allergic rhinitis is made by detailed anamnesis, physical examination and laboratory tests. In the laboratory, skin testing, serum total IgE, specific IgE levels, nasal secretions are helpful in the diagnosis. Material and methods: In our study, 52 patients with AR were screened for blood eosinophil counts and percentages, allergy skin test results, and allergy-specific IgE levels. Only blood eosinophil counts and percentages of 55 healthy control patients without chronic disease at the same age and gender were studied. Results. Eosinophili was found in 22 (42.3%) patients who have AR. The comparison of Eosinophil Percentage values £¿£¿of AR and Control Groups was statistically significant (p = 0.009). When AR patients were compared within themselves, allergen-specific IgE positivity was found to be positive in 10 patients, positivity in skin test with allergen in 10 patients, Allergen skin test and calorie specific IgE test in 18 (%34,6) £¿patients were positive. Conclusion: As a result of our study, eosinophilia was found to be superior to allergy test in AR %K alerjik rinit %K alerji testleri %K eozinofili %U http://dergipark.org.tr/ksutfd/issue/45521/454413
