Abstract. House dust mites are the most found allergens in homes scattered throughout the world that associated with allergic manifestations in the respiratory tract and skin, such as bronchial asthma, allergic rhinitis and atopic dermatitis. The most common house dust mite is from the family Pyroglyphidae, four of which have a close relationship with the incidence of allergy: Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus, Dermatophagoides farinae, Dermatophagoides microceras, and Euroglyphus maynei. This study aims to determine the type and density of house dust mites in several habitats in the homes of people with allergic diseases. This study is a descriptive study using cross-sectional method. Samples were dust in allergic patient’s home in Malalayang I, taken from three habitats, namely bed (mattress and bed linen), bedrooms floor and sofa, as many as 96 samples. Of the 96 samples, there are 60 samples positive of dust mites and 36 negative samples. This study found 157 mites (124 adults and 33 larvae mites). Of the 124 adult mites were identified, there are 122 from order Astigmata with the dominant species is Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus, and two others of the order Prostigmata. In each habitat that is in the bed (mattress and bed linen), bedrooms floor and sofa, Pyroglyphidae is the most prevalent.Keywords: house dust mite, allergiesAbstrak.

Abstract OBJECTIVE: To investigate the risk factors associated with allergic rhinitis in adults. METHODS: Using the 1:1 matching principle, 1096 cases of allergic rhinitis patients aged 18-65 years were selected as the observation group, and another group of healthy medical checkups were selected as the control group, and the data related to allergic rhinitis were collected by allergen testing and questionnaire survey, and univariate and multifactorial analyses were performed respectively. RESULTS: The univariate analysis showed that allergic rhinitis may be related to temperature changes, dryness and humidity, air pressure, wind speed, seasonal changes and exposure to allergens such as dust mites and house dust mites. After allergen testing of all patients in the observation group, it was found that dust mite and house dust mite were the highest percentage of allergens, accounting for 40.51%, indicating that environmental factors play a decisive role in allergic rhinitis. Multi-factor analysis showed that exposure to dust mites, house dust mites, Penicillium punctatum, Streptomyces crossatus and Aspergillus fumigatus were independent risk factors for allergic rhinitis when it was humid, when it was cold, when it was windy and when the air pressure was low. CONCLUSION: The epidemiological status of allergic rhinitis in adults in China was initially understood, and the main allergens were house dust mite and dust mite, which provided scientific epidemiological information for the standardized prevention and treatment of allergic rhinitis in this region.

Bedding dust is a mixture of many components, of which the house dust mite (HDM) allergen, Der p 1, is the most allergenic. There has been little work to investigate the effect of other bedding dust components on HDM sensitisation. The objective of the study was to determine the effect of endotoxin in bedding dust on the allergic response in HDM-sensitised individuals. Twenty-nine house dust mite-sensitised adults were skin prick and allergen patch tested against a sterile solution of their own bedding dust and against a solution containing the same concentration of Der p 1 as the bedding solution for comparison. There was no significant difference in wheal size between the diluted house dust mite solution and the bedding dust in spite of their high levels of endotoxin. Symptomatic subjects had larger, but not statistically significant, responses to commercial house dust mite solution than asymptomatic subjects. Allergen patch test responses were negative in 22/29 of subjects using either bedding dust solutions or comparable diluted house dust mite solutions. An individual's own bedding dust does not appear to contain factors that enhance skin prick test or atopy patch test responses to house dust mites.

ABSTRACTObjective: The avoidance of house dust mite (HDM) is crucial in the management of HDM allergies. We aimed to demonstrate the implementation and perspective of the parents whose children had HDM allergy/sensitization to HDM avoidance measures. Materials and Methods: Parents of the patients with HDM sensitization were interviewed via telephone questionnaires.Results: One hundred and three patients with asthma (73.8%), allergic rhinitis (AR) (77.7%) and/or atopic dermatitis (AD) (29.1%) aged four to 18 years were included in the study. Seventy-one patients had multiple allergic diseases (68.9%). Of the parents, 39.8% fully adhered to HDM avoidance measures, and their education status was as follows: 41.5% illiterate/elementary/middle school, 31.7% high school, and 26.8% associate’s degree/university. In addition, 32.2% of the mothers who were partially adherent (n=62) were illiterate or had graduated from elementary/middle school, 33.9% had graduated from high school, and 33.9% had an associate’s degree or had graduated from university. Forty-one (39.8%) mothers were working, and most of them (61%) had graduated from university or had an associate’s degree. Nearly half of the mothers who were partially adherent to HDM measures were working (n=32). In the multivariate analysis, the risk factors for partial adherence to measures was to be a working mother [OR:4.072, 95%CI: 1.350-12.882, p=0.013] and to have the belief that the measures were useless [OR:4.886, 95%CI: 1.499-15.923, p=0.008]. However, no relationship was shown between adherence to the measures and the severity of AR or AD, asthma control status and having multiple allergic diseases.Conclusion: Full adherence to HDM avoidance measures was considerably dependent on the mothers’ working status and belief in the ineffectiveness of the measures whereas there was no relationship to the severity of allergic diseases. This study also revealed how the education status of the mothers affected the adherence to allergen avoidance measures in real life.Keywords: Children, Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus,Dermatophagoides farinae, house dust mites, avoidance measures, parents, pediatrics, questionnaire
