多化学物质过敏症及其所致变应性皮肤敏感

Multiple Chemical Sensitivity and Induced Skin Sensitivity

多化学物质过敏症(MCS)又叫变应性环境不耐症(IEI),是随着环境不断污染而出现的一组综合症候群。即患者接触日常环境中低浓度化学物后产生的过敏性不良反应或一组病症;敏感性皮肤是指人们对化妆品、环境气候等诸多因素所表现出的无明显皮损的不耐受性。敏感性皮肤可能是MCS或IEI在皮肤临床上的表现而已。人们在敏感性肌肤的定义、分类及检测方法方面的研究取得了一定的进展,对深入研究MCS具有比较明显的借鉴意义。

Multiple chemical sensitivity（MCS）, also named as idiopathic environment intolerance（IEI）, is a syndrome that comes with the aggravation of environment pollution. It is an adverse health effect or a group of symptoms due to hypersensitivity to chemicals at low concentrations from daily environment. Sensitive skin is a complicated skin state of intolerance to cosmetics or environmental factors without obvious skin lesions, which is possibly a clinical manifestation of MCS or IEI. The progress on identification, classification, and detection methods of sensitive skin will help scientists to further explore MCS.
