ResumoBackground: Multiple animal antigens, spores and pollens were collected and identified from the Kuwaiti atmosphere.The role for these antigens in mediating allergic rhinitis for Kuwaiti residents needs to be evaluated.Objective: To investigate the causes (both indoors and outdoors) of allergic rhinitis for Kuwaiti residents.Method: This is a retrospective study of all positive skin tests that we obtained in our Allergy clinic in Mubarak Alkabeer Hospital in Kuwait, during the period between May 2013 and December 2015, from patients who presented with allergic rhinitis symptoms and/or signs.They underwent skin prick tests to a battery of common allergens (german cockroach, cat dander, dog dander, house dustmites mix, cladosporium, aspergillus mix, penicillium mix, alternaria, grass pollens mix, Russian thistle pollens, mugwort pollens, rough pigweed pollens, sorrel pollens, compositae pollens, olive pollens, and date palm pollens).A wheal of ≥3 mm was considered a positive skin test.Results: A total of 177 patients with rhinitis (90 females and 87 males) had positive test results to at least one allergen and were considered allergic.77.9% of the patients had positive results to Russian thistle pollens, 39.9% to cat dander, 29.9% to grass pollens mix, 22.6% to compositae pollens, 22.6% to mugwort pollens, 22% to house dust mites mix, 21.4% to olive pollens, 20.9% to German cockroach, 20.3% to dog dander, 18.1% to rough pigweed pollens, 15.8% to date palm pollens, and 12.4% to sorrel pollens, 14.7% to penicillium, 10.7% to cladosporium, 10.7% to aspergillus mix, and 4% to alternaria.Conclusion: Russian Thistle pollen is the commonest sensitization for Kuwaiti residents with allergic rhinitis.
