          Abstract

          Vasomotor rhinitis is the most common form of nonallergic rhinitis, comprising approximately 71% of all nonallergic rhinitis conditions. Although the epidemiology of this subtype of nonallergic rhinitis has not been definitively studied, it is estimated that 14 million Americans suffer from vasomotor rhinitis, with a worldwide prevalence approaching 320 million.

              Perennial rhinitis: An independent risk factor for asthma in nonatopic subjects: results from the European Community Respiratory Health Survey.

              F Neukirch, B Leynaert, C Neukirch … (1999)
              Although clinical and experimental studies suggest that upper respiratory tract dysfunction may affect the lower airways, rhinitis is usually not studied as a potential risk factor for asthma. This is because both diseases share key elements of pathogenesis and are usually considered as different manifestations of the same underlying "atopic" state. We sought to assess whether asthma is associated with rhinitis in the absence of immunologic disorders in a population study. Data from 34 centers participating in the European Community Respiratory Health Survey were analyzed. Random samples of 20- to 44-year-old subjects were invited to complete a detailed questionnaire and undergo total and specific IgE measurements, skin prick tests to 9 allergens, and bronchoprovocation challenges with methacholine. Subjects with perennial rhinitis (n = 1412) were more likely than control subjects (n = 5198) to have current asthma. After adjustment for sex, age, smoking habit, family history of asthma, geographic area, and season at the time of examination, asthma was strongly associated with rhinitis among atopic subjects (odds ratio [OR] = 8.1; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 5.4-12.1) but also among nonatopic subjects (OR = 11.6; 95% CI = 6.2-21.9). Moreover, the association remained very strong when the analysis was restricted to nonatopic subjects with IgE levels of 80 kIU/L or less (OR = 13.3; 95% CI = 6. 7-26.5). In nonasthmatic subjects bronchial hyperresponsiveness was also more frequent in subjects with rhinitis than in those without rhinitis (OR = 1.7; 95%CI = 1.2-2.6 in nonatopic subjects with IgE levels of
