Association between Dyslipidaemia and Allergic Rhinitis

Abstract

Allergic rhinitis (AR) is an immunoglobulin (Ig)E-mediated inflammatory nasal condition resulting from allergen introduction in a sensitized individual (Wise et al., 2018). AR was defined in 1929 as a process which included 3 cardinal symptoms: sneezing, nasal obstruction, and mucus discharge (Hansel, 1929). Symptoms occur with allergen exposure in the allergic patient. AR is a widely prevalent condition that can result in significant physical sequelae and recurrent or persistent morbidities (Wise et al., 2018).
