Is there any correlation between the results of skin-prick test and the severity of symptoms in allergic rhinitis?

abstract：BACKGROUND:Patients report that nasal congestion is the most bothersome symptom of allergic rhinitis (AR). Recently, a short, patient-reported congestion screener questionnaire, the Congestion Quantifier Seven-Item Test (CQ7), was developed to identify a level of congestion that may warrant patients seeking evaluation ...
