The effects of 3 topical applications of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), diclofenac 1%, naproxene 10% and salicylic acid 5% in gel vehicles, on immediate contact reactions to 500 mM benzoic acid, 500 mM cinnamic aldehyde, 50 mM methyl nicotinate, all in pet., and 14.1 M (100%)

To investigate the mechanisms of non-immunologic contact urticaria (NICU), the effect of 120 mg of terfenadine (H1-antagonist) on contact reactions to methyl nicotinate, diethyl fumarate, benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, cinnamic aldehyde and dimethyl sulfoxide was studied in 20 subjects. Erythema and

BACKGROUND The burning mouth syndrome is poorly understood and mainly affects postmenopausal women. Dental allergens have seldom explained the burning. OBJECTIVE Eight patients (seven women, one man) (mean age 62.5 years) who wore dentures and had the burning mouth syndrome were investigated to

To investigate the mechanisms of non-immunologic contact urticaria (NICU), the effects of 1g + 1g of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) on contact reactions to methyl nicotinate, diethyl fumarate, benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, cinnamic aldehyde and dimethyl sulfoxide were studied in 21 test subjects.
