All Events

Event Type Organ System Event Term

Change in Sneezing Symptom

Sneezes. The change is calculated by adding the number of sneezes following both antigen challenges minus twice the number of sneezes after the diluent challenge.

Change in Runny Nose Symptom

The nasal symptoms on a scale of 0-3 (0=no symptoms, 1=mild, 2= moderate, 3= severe). The change is calculated by adding the score of runny nose following both antigen challenges minus twice the score of runny nose after the diluent challenge.

Change in Itching Symptom

The nasal symptoms on a scale of 0-3 (0=no symptoms, 1=mild, 2= moderate, 3= severe). The change is calculated by adding the score of itchy nose following both antigen challenges minus twice the score of itchy nose after the diluent challenge.
