Patterns of food allergen sensitization and co-sensitizationin Jordan: A laboratory-based analysis
Food allergy is an increasing global health concern, yet laboratory-based data on food allergen sensitization in Jordan remain limited.
The natural history of childhood-onset nonallergic rhinitis; a long-term follow-up study
Non-allergic rhinitis (NAR) is characterized by symptoms of nasal inflammation without allergic sensitization. The long-term outcome of NAR in children is poorly defined.
Sensitization to cat and dog components and prediction of symptoms in cat-sensitized children
Sensitization to cat and/or dog allergens during childhood represents a risk factor for the development of allergic diseases later in life.
Threshold dose of cow’s milk in sensitization to casein higher than those of casein and β-lactoglobulin in children with cow’s milk allergy
Recent treatment for food allergies involves the intake of allergy-causing foods at doses lower than the threshold dose determined by the oral food challenge (OFC). For a more successful treatment, it is necessary to identify a biomarker to establish safer doses of allergens in foods consumed at home.
Interaction of the TLR4 rs1927911 polymorphism with house dust mite sensitization in allergic rhinitis with its prognosis
Sensitization to the house dust mite (HDM) plays important roles in the development of allergic rhinitis (AR). Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is a key initiator of the innate immune system upon exposure to environmental factors.
Prevalence of rat and mouse sensitization in Asian patients with respiratory allergy
Skin prick test (SPT) is useful in identifying rat and mouse sensitization.
Evaluation of proteins in natural rubber latex gloves and pulmonary function amongst female nurses in two tertiary hospitals in southern, Thailand
Inhaled natural rubber latex (NRL) allergens in a healthcare environment can cause NRL sensitization and reduce pulmonary functions.
Association between sensitization and allergic diseases in 7-years-old Korean children
Sensitization is associated with the exacerbation, severity, and prognosis of allergic diseases in children
Sensitization to house dust mite allergens might be related to the low sensitivity of ImmunoCAP to pollen allergen
Skin prick test (SPT) and ImmunoCAP are widely used to diagnose allergies. However, previous studies showed discordance between the results of SPT and ImmunoCAP and there remains a lack of research to better understand the differences in results between the two tests.
Patterns of sensitization to aeroallergens and their effect on airway hyper-responsiveness in Busan, Korea
Allergen sensitization and its influence on allergic disease can vary depending on ethnicity and geography.
