Incidence of exercise-induced bronchospasm in chronic non-allergic rhinitis in children.
Out of 20 children diagnosed as suffering from chronic non-allergic rhinitis, only one (5.0%) suffered from exercise-induced bronchospasm, as compared with 47.2% of children with allergic chronic rhinitis, who showed bronchospasm after running. These findings support the view that mediators of hypersensitivity are released in E-IB and may play an important role in its pathogenesis.
