Cell numbers increase in non-allergic rhinitis patients with eosinophilia, aspirin hypersensitivity and nasal polyposis, as well as in allergic rhinitis patients. Exfoliative nasal cytology can be used in the differential diagnosis of allergic rhinitis.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0022215118001986_sec_a2\"><jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title><jats:p>To evaluate nasal eosinophilia in nasal smears of patients with mild, persistent and intermittent allergic rhinitis.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0022215118001986_sec_a3\" sec-type=\"methods\"><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>The study comprised 60 patients with allergic rhinitis and 20 healthy volunteers.
