MAST, which stand for multiple antigen simultaneous test, uses enzyme-linked anti-human IgE and chemiluminogenic substate to determine IgE. This system is characterized by simultaneous analysis of multiple allergen items, up to 35, together with total IgE determination. We evaluated usefulness of
Immediate and delayed cutaneous hypersensitivity are believed to be implicated in the physiopathology atopic dermatitis (AD). The purpose of this study was to evaluate Type I and Type IV allergy to aeroallergens in children with AD. 59 children (mean age 5.2 years), presenting with AD according to
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of the current study is to evaluate the relation between various specific class E immunoglobulins (IgE) in the serum and allergic conjunctivitis in autumn.
METHODS
Total IgE and specific IgE to 12 inhalant allergens were measured using the CAP system in 32 patients with
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) population and family studies were performed to determine whether a specific HLA type is associated with allergic rhinitis. We analyzed hereditary characteristics of allergic rhinitis using 27 nuclear families. According to the results of HLA typing, we concluded that
BACKGROUND
Recent advances in medical care have drastically improved life prognosis of severe life-threatening diseases in newborns and young children. However, 'intact' survival without sequelae for all the children is still to be achieved and prevalence of severe motor and intellectual
Recently, it is pointed out that the incidence of Japanese cedar pollinosis has increased in children. We studied on the rate of sensitization and the onset of the disease in children under sixteen who visited allergy clinic in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology in Mie University Hospital. The
One hundred and twenty-six allergic subjects were divided into three groups based on the RAST results for Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (D.p) and Japanese cedar (J.C.). We compared sex, age of examination for RAST, serum IgE, family history of allergic diseases, prevalence rate of bronchial asthma
Allergic conditions are prevalent equine diseases that can be diagnosed by clinical examination alone, but definitive diagnosis is more likely with laboratory testing. The ELISA Allercept© test was used to analyse the serum samples of 73 horses with allergic diseases. Sixty-one horses
The incidence of nasal allergy in medical students was studied in our University from 1983 to 1987. Intradermal skin tests were performed using six allergens: house dust (HD), ragweed, Japanese cedar, orchard grass, candida and broncasma berna. 154 out of 471 students (32.7%) had symptoms indicative
BACKGROUND
ImmunoCAP® Rapid is a rapid test kit to measure the allergen-specific IgE to the eight major inhalation allergen (cat, mite, orchard grass, ragweed, wormwood, dog, cockroach, Japan cedar).
METHODS
We performed ImmunoCAP® Rapid 83 patients with allergic disease (26 males, 57 females,
To determine the importance of silkworm moth allergens, we tested 267 patients with allergic rhinitis with CAP-RAST, a new assay system for detecting specific IgE in sera. We used the following allergen sources: house-dust mite, Candida, Alternaria, cat dander, orchard grass, ragweed, mugwort,
Five-year changes in the percentage of positive intradermal test to allergens in patients with bronchial asthma (BA) and allergic rhinitis (AR) over a period of 30 years from 1969 to 1998 were analyzed, with consideration of their association with the yearly changes in the levels of airborne pollens
Seasonal allergic rhinitis (SAR) is an inflammatory disease of the nose and eyes that follows sensitization to air-born pollens. We conducted a genome-wide linkage screening of 48 Japanese families (188 members) with orchard grass (OG)-sensitive SAR children (67 affected sib-pairs) in a farming
The humoral immune system of reptiles is not well-studied. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this case report describes the first case of a type I allergic conjunctivitis associated with orchard grass in an African spur-thighed tortoise (Centrochelys sulcata) supported by intradermal allergen
We investigated the positive rate of specific IgE to various allergens in 548 patients with allergic rhinitis who visited 13 hospitals in Hokkaido in 2001. House dust and mite were most common allergen in our study. On the other hand, the positive rate for pollens were in the order of birch,
