Methods 7 085 patients were examined for tlgE and slgE to 15 allergens, based on the protocols of reversed enzyme allergosorbent test and the sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results 3 758 （53.04%） patients tested positive for tlgE, and 4 640 （65.49%） for slgE. Der pteronyssinus, Derfarinae, eggs, and cow＇s milk were the most common allergens leading to higher positive rates of slgE responses. Several peaks of sensitization were： Der pteronyssinus, Derfarinae, and Blomia tropicalis at age 10-12; cow＇s milk at age below 3; eggs at age 4-6. The mean level and positive rate of tlgE tended to increase in subjects sensitized to more allergens. Sensitization to Der pteronyssinus （OR, 1.6; P〈O.05）, Der farinae （OR, 1.5; P〈O.05）, Blomia tropicalis （OR, 1.4; P〈O.05）, Blattella germanica （OR, 1.5; P〈O.05）, cow＇s milk （OR, 1.3; P〈O.05）, and soy beans （OR, 2.0; P〈O.05） were independently correlated with allergy-related conditions in preliminary diagnosis. Conclusion The major allergens in Guangzhou include Derpteronyssinus, Derfarinae, cow＇s milk, and eggs. Sensitization to these allergens appears to be predictors of allergy-related disorder.展开更多
