Abstract：
:Three main types of inflammatory Non-Allergic Rhinitis (NAR) have been defined: NAR infiltrated by eosinophils (NARES), by mast cells (NARMA), and by neutrophils (NARNE). In the absence of studies that investigated the Quality of Life (QoL) in NAR, the present work is aimed at evaluating the Quality of Life of patients with NARES, NARMA, and NARNE. One hundred thirty one (131) NAR patients were prospectively and consecutively evaluated: 54 patients with NARES, 38 with NARMA, and 39 with NARNE. Their history, nasal infiltration and rhinomanometry were characterized, and Quality of Life (using 2 instruments) was evaluated, and associated to clinical and histological features. Quality of Life was significantly different in the 3 groups (p less than 0.001); NARES patients had the worst Quality of Life. Nasal resistances were significantly higher in the NARES group. Significant associations were shown in NARES patients between Quality of Life and nasal function. This study provides the first evidence that Quality of Life is impaired in NAR as well as in allergic rhinitis. Furthermore, Quality of Life impairment differs among the various forms of NAR, and there is a correlation with the cellular infiltrating type.
