AB  - OBJECTIVE: To investigate the positive rates of some allergens in different age 
      groups of allergic rhinitis patients, and to analyze the relationship between 
      serum specific immunoglobulin E(sIgE) and total immunoglobulin E(IgE). METHOD: 
      Six hundred and fifty-three patients with allergic rhinitis, tested by 
      AllergyScreen system, were enrolled in our research. RESULT: The positive rate of 
      sIgE in all patients was 85.5%. The positive rate of dust mite was the highest 
      with the result of 76.3%, and the positive rate of feline or dogs hair was the 
      lowest of 20.3%. The statistical significance of different positive rate of some 
      allergens were found in the different age groups. All the patients were divided 
      into two groups, one was younger than 18 years old group, which including 18 
      years old and another was older than 18 years old group. Except Mx, the positive 
      rate of other allergens existed statistical difference. The level of serum total 
      IgE could not reflect the positive rate of sIgE completely. CONCLUSION: It is an 
      effective and reliable method of the diagnosis of allergic rhinitis to combine 
      the analysis of total serum IgE and sIgE levels with patients clinical 
      manifestations. Different strategies should be employed for the prevention and 
      treatment of allergic rhinitis according to their ages.
