common in the Elbasan region, Albania. Presenting the plants
according to the morphological description and the flowering period,
allergologists are assisted in accurate diagnosis, patients receive
information on the plants from which they should be aware of; by
correctly determining the cause of the allergy, sensitize appropriate
instances for taking measures to minimize allergic plants, but at the
same time they serve as ornamental plants. To see how this disease
varies in gender, place of residence and age group, there have been
study cases of allergies from 374 patients 2018-2019 in three different
laboratories. To determine the cause of the allergy, about 20 plant
allergens (Graminaceae family, Artemisia vulgaris, Ambrosia
artemisiifolia, Chenopodium album, Ligustrum vulgare, Fraxinus
ornus, Quercus ilex, Olea europea, Cupressus sempervirens, Plantago
lanceolata, Platanus hybrida, Parietaria officinalis, Betulla pendula,
Alnus glutinosa, Pinus sylvestris) were used through Allergy Euroline
Mediterranean Inhalation. Results of this study have demonstrated
that the main cause of allergic diseases is the pollen of the
Graminaceae family (146 cases); it is followed by the pollen grains of
Artemisia vulgaris and Chenopodium album, respectively with 46 and
44 cases. At the end of the study, it turned out that for the period 2018-
2019, allergic cases are most common in populated areas where about 225 patients were affected while in the village only 149 patients.
Furthermore, based on the statistics, the male gender and the age
group 21-30 (101 cases) seemed to be more sensitive to this herbal
allergen for non-fully explained reasons. | | Keywords : | | | allergic diseases, pollen grains, Elbasan, variability |
