BACKGROUND: Allergen skin prick test (SPT) and serum specific immunoglobulin E (sIgE) are effective diagnostic tests in allergic rhinitis (AR), however, positive results may not always correlate with clinical allergies. A nasal provocation test (NPT) can identify the causative allergen for immunotherapy, but it's not routinely performed.
OBJECTIVE: To establish the cutoff value for the house dust mite (HDM) SPT mean wheal diameter (MWD) and HDM sIgE level for identifying children with HDM-induced AR diagnosed from NPT.
METHODS: Children aged 5 to 18 years old with chronic rhinitis were evaluated by HDM SPT, sIgE, and NPT. Children with positive NPT results indicated HDM-induced AR. The cutoff values of the HDM SPT and sIgE level for predicting positive NPT were determined using a receiver operating characteristic curve.
RESULTS: A total of 245 children with a mean age of 9.53 ± 3 years were enrolled. HDM SPT results were positive (≥ 3 mm) in 160 (65.3%) children. HDM NPT results were positive in 176 (71.8%) children. Among children with positive HDM SPT (n = 160), 153 children (95.6%) were confirmed as having AR on NPT findings. The cutoff values for positive NPT responses were 6.6 mm for HDM SPT (yielding 100% specificity and 100% positive predictive value) and 17.0 kUA/L for sIgE (98.6% specificity and 99.2% positive predictive value).
CONCLUSIONS: This study proposes HDM SPT and sIgE cutoff values for use in the diagnosis of HDM-induced AR based on NPT. These cutoff values can be used to identify HDM-induced AR children who might benefit from immunotherapy.
