Algorithms in Allergy: Assessment of Rhinitis Using Allergen Exposure Chambers.

The article discusses the use of allergen exposure chambers (AECs) in diagnosing allergic rhinitis (AR) through provocation tests. AECs simulate real-life allergen exposure in a controlled environment, allowing for comprehensive and controlled exposure to airborne allergens. The European Medicines Agency recognizes the importance of AECs in allergy research, emphasizing the need to validate outcomes against natural exposure scenarios. AECs offer a more accurate reflection of daily allergen exposure and can be valuable in monitoring treatment efficacy and refining management plans for AR. [Extracted from the article]
