无论是否过敏,COVID-19住院患者的结局相似

无论是否过敏,COVID-19住院患者的结局相似

研究表明,ICU住院率和疾病严重程度相似。

阿灵顿高地,病了。(2020年11月13日)-在2019冠状病毒病大流行期间,人们关注的焦点是既有过敏症状又有过敏症状的人Asthma is a chronic, inflammatory lung disease characterized by recurrent breathing problems. People with asthma have acute episodes where the air passages in their lungs get narrower, and breathing becomes more difficult. Sometimes episodes of asthma are triggered by allergens, although infection, exercise, cold air and other factors are also important triggers." rel="tooltip">哮喘如果他们生病了,可能也会受到影响。一项新的研究在今年的虚拟美国学院Allergies are inappropriate or exaggerated reactions of the immune system to substances that, in the majority of people, cause no symptoms. Symptoms of the allergic diseases may be caused by exposure of the skin to a chemical, of the respiratory system to particles of dust or pollen (or other substances), or of the stomach and intestines to a particular food." rel="tooltip">过敏美国哮喘与免疫学(ACAAI)年度科学会议检查了医院数据,以确定有过敏症状的人是否比没有过敏症状的人患有更严重的covid - 19相关疾病。

“我们检查了275名入院患者的图表,他们的SARS-CoV-2病毒检测呈阳性,没有任何过敏性疾病史,”ACAAI成员、过敏专科医师Dylan Timberlake医学博士说。“在两个月的时间里,当我们检查图表时,我们发现有过敏症状的COVID-19患者与没有过敏症状的COVID-19患者之间的疾病严重程度似乎没有差别。”

决定疾病严重程度的因素包括ICU住院、住院时间、辅助供氧量和插管率。

“研究基于过敏等过敏性疾病的患者的结果Rhinitis is an inflammation of the mucous membrane that lines the nose, often due to an allergy to pollen, dust or other airborne substances. Seasonal allergic rhinitis also is known as "hay fever," a disorder which causes sneezing, itching, a runny nose and nasal congestion." rel="tooltip">鼻炎、哮喘、An inflammation of the skin, usually causing itching and sometimes accompanied by crusting, scaling or blisters. A type of eczema often made worse by allergen exposure is termed "atopic dermatitis."" rel="tooltip">湿疹ACAAI成员、该研究的合著者、过敏专科医生米切尔·格雷森医学博士说。“例如,在ICU住院方面,43%的变应性疾病患者住院,而45%的患者没有。79%的过敏患者需要补充氧气,而没有过敏的患者需要补充氧气的比例是74%。”

在这项研究中,更多过敏患者患有慢性阻塞性肺病(39% vs. 17%),这是COVID导致严重疾病的已知风险因素。在对COPD的存在及其与更严重的covid - 19相关疾病的相关性进行统计控制后,研究人员发现了一种统计趋势,表明对那些已有过敏性疾病但没有哮喘的人可能有保护。

Immunotherapy involves giving gradually increasing doses of the substance, or allergen, to which the person is allergic. The incremental increases of the allergen cause the immune system to become less sensitive to the substance, perhaps by causing production of a particular "blocking" antibody, which reduces the symptoms of allergy when the substance is encountered in the future." rel="tooltip">免疫疗法并为患者提供最好的治疗效果。欲了解更多信息并寻求缓解,请访问AllergyandAsthmaRelief.org.加入我们脸谱网Pinterest推特
