Grass Pollen Season

Objective: The objective of this study was to compare driving ability, memory, and psychomotor performance during grass pollen season with winter season in untreated patients with SAR. Methods: Patients with SAR were trained and tested during the grass pollen season (summer) and winter. An on-the-road driving test during normal traffic conditions was performed. Primary parameter is the Standard Deviation of Lateral Position (SDLP), i.e. the weaving of the car. In addition, a word learning test and continuous performance test were performed and quality of life was assessed. Patients were included if in winter the Total 5-Symptoms Score (T5SS) was < 3 and in summer the T5SS was > 3. Results: 70 patients were recruited of which 22 started the study. Fifteen patients completed the study of which 11 met the inclusion criteria. These 11 patients had a mean T5SS of 6.8 in summer and 0.6 in winter. Patient reported a significantly reduced overall quality of life during grass pollen season (p<0.0001). No significant effects were found on the driving test, except a significant (but not relevant) decrease in mean speed during the grass pollen season (p<0.035). No significant effects were found on the word learning test and continuous performance test. Conclusion: Our data suggest that moderate SAR symptoms do not impair driving ability, memory functioning and continuous performance. However, given the small sample size future studies should confirm these findings.

The measurements of pollen fall were carried out in Lublin in 1995 - 2000 years by the gravimetric method. The modified Durham sampler was applied, located at 9 m above ground level. On the base of results 6 year observations - the pollen calendar for Lublin was prepared. The following 15 plant taxa were taken under consideration: <i>Alnus</i>, <i>Corylus</i>, Cupressaceae, <i>Populus</i>, <i>Fraxinus</i>, <i>Betula</i>, <i>Quercus</i>, Pinaceae, Poaceae, <i>Rumex</i>, <i>Plantago</i>, <i>Urtica</i>, Chenopodiaceae, <i>Artemisia</i> and <i>Ambrosia</i>. The anemophilous plants' pollen season in Lublin began in half of February and lasted till half of September. First appeared pollen grains of decidous tress' and shrubs, then the coniferous. High values of pollen fall of these plants were noted till the end of May. Start of grass pollen season was recorded from the half of May, and at the latter part of this month, also other herbaceous plants. The highest concentrations of pollen were found in April and May when trees and shrubs pollinated. The highest annual totals were marked for plants of the following taxa: <i>Betula</i>, Poaceae, Pinaceae, <i>Alnus</i>, <i>Urtica</i>.

The aim of the study was to analyse the grass pollen season dynamics in Cracow in 1991-2008 and to find the relationship between the meteorological conditions and season parameters. The pollen season started on average on the 138th day of the year (±10 days) and ended on the 211th day (±10 days). The median of the SPI value (calculated by the 95/90% method) was 2041, peak concentration - 111 pgm<sup>-3</sup> (achieved on average on the 34th day of the season/173th day of the year). The average temperature in April-May showed the greatest effect on the start and end of the season (negative correlation). T<sub>mean</sub> of the third decade of June influenced the season end (rs negative). T<sub>mean</sub> of April-May correlated negatively with the time of peak concentration. Rainfall in January and April influenced the season start. Relative sunshine in March-April was related to the season start, in the third decade of June it was related to the season end (negative correlation), in March-April it influenced the time of peak concentration (positive correlation), while in January-March the peak concentration (positively). Cloudiness in February-May and also in the third decade of June had an impact on the season end and time of peak concentration (positive correlation). Humidity in February influenced the season start (negatively). The SPI value was influenced by relative sunshine (positively) in February-May, by humidity in April, and cloudiness in February-March (negatively).
