摘要
We correlated the grade of nasal smear eosinophilia with severity of allergic rhinitis, in 50 children in a cross sectional study conducted at a tertiary care referral hospital, between August 2007 to July 2009. The grade of nasal smear eosinophilia correlated well with increasing severity of allergic rhinitis (P<0.001)(r=0.83).
