Popis: Aim. To investigate differences in the efficacy of sublingual immunotherapy withDermatophagoides farinaedrops in monosensitized and polysensitized allergic rhinitis patients.Methods. The patients enrolled in the study were treated for more than one year by sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) usingDermatophagoides farinaedrops and were divided into a monosensitized group (n=20) and a polysensitized group (n=30). Total nasal symptom scores of patients before and after SLIT were analyzed to evaluate the curative effect. The phylogenetic tree of dust mite allergens as well as other allergens that were tested by skin prick test was constructed to help the analysis.Results. There was no significant difference in the efficacy of SLIT between dust mite monosensitized and polysensitized patients.Conclusions. Both dust mite monosensitized and polysensitized patients could be cured by SLIT usingDermatophagoides farinaedrops. This study provides a reference for the selection of allergens to be used in immunotherapy for polysensitized AR patients.
