Özet

BackgroundAlthough the effectiveness of allergen monotherapy immunotherapy for allergic rhinitis (AR) has been well established by many prior studies, other aspects of immunotherapy are still incompletely documented by high-quality studies. The many published papers describe various results. The aim of the present study was to conduct a meta-analysis on the effectiveness of allergen immunotherapy.
