The auxiliary diagnostic value of ECP and MPO expression in nasal secretions in different types of rhinitis].

Objective:To evaluate the expression of eosinophil cationic protein and myeloperoxidase in nasal secretions in different types of rhinitis, and to explore their values in the differential diagnosis of different types of rhinitis. Methods:Six hundred and eighty-four subjects were selected, including 62 subjects in the acute rhinitis group, 378 subjects in the allergic rhinitis group, 94 subjects in the vasomotor rhinitis group, 70 subjects in the eosinophilic non-allergic rhinitis group, and 80 subjects in the control group. Nasal secretion samples were collected from the five groups, and the percentages of inflammatory cells were counted by Rachel's staining, and the expression of ECP/MPO was detected by colloidal gold assay. The correlation between the clinical diagnosis, the inflammatory cells in the nasal secretions and the expression of ECP/MPO was analyzed. Results:Nasal cytological smears showed that compared with the control group, the percentage of eosinophils in the AR and NARES groups were significantly higher （P<0.05）, while the percentage of neutrophils was not different （P>0.05）; the percentage of neutrophils was significantly higher in the acute rhinitis group compared with the control group （P<0.05）, while the percentage of eosinophils was not statistically different （P>0.05）; in vasomotor rhinitis group, the eosinophils and neutrophils were not statistically different compared with the control group（P> 0.05）. The colloidal gold results showed that there were differences in the expression of ECP/MPO in different types of rhinitis, among which 49 cases （79.0%） in the acute rhinitis group expressed ECP+/MPO+; 267 cases （70.6%） in the AR group and 56 cases （75.7%） in the NARES group expressed ECP+/MPO-; 80 cases （85.1%） in the vasomotor rhinitis group and 69 cases （86.3%） in the control group expressed ECP-/MPO-. Conclusion:The differences in ECP and MPO expression between different types of rhinitis have certain reference value for the differential diagnosis of different types of rhinitis and the selection of treatment programs.
