Article Abstract

Allergen immunotherapy (AIT) is a proven therapeutic option for the treatment of allergic rhinitis and/or asthma. Many international or national practice guidelines have been produced, but the evidence-based method varies and they do not usually propose care pathways. The present article considers the possible role of mobile health in AIT for allergic rhinitis/asthma. There are no currently available validated biologic biomarkers that can predict AIT success, and mobile health biomarkers have some relevance. In the current article, the following aspects will be discussed: patient stratification for AIT, symptom-medication scores for the follow-up of patients, clinical trials, as well as the approach of the European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology.

Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is vital for effective optimization of pharmacological treatments. In this study, we engineered a chromatography column that is sensitive to temperature fluctuations, thereby enabling safe and straightforward TDM without relying on organic solvents. Silica beads were modified by applying poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) hydrogels, using a condensation reaction to modify the initiator, followed by radical polymerization to integrate the PNIPAAm hydrogel.
