Summary: In order to study the relationship between serum specific IgE (sIgE) and allergen skin test, allergen skin tests and detections of sIgE in 220 allergic patients of Wuhan area were analyzed.

The coherent rate of the two methods was beyond 70 % (P<0.01). It was concluded that the in vitro and in vivo detection methods of allergens have a high coherence and can be used as the effective ways to diagnose the allergic diseases in clinical practice.展开更多

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
