Evaluation of the utility of autologous serum skin test and the efficacy of autologous serum therapy in chronic spontaneous urticaria
Background: Autologous serum skin test (ASST) evaluates the presence of any serum histamine-releasing factors and histamine-releasing autoantibodies. Autologous serum therapy (AST) is a therapy in which repeated injections of autologous serum are administered intramuscularly for treatment of chronicspontaneous urticaria (CSU). The aim of this study is to evaluate the advantages and compare the ...
متن کاملAutologous Serum Skin Test versus Autologous Plasma Skin Test in Patients with Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria
Previous studies indicate that 25-45% of chronic urticaria patients have an autoimmune etiology. Autologous serum skin test (ASST) and autologous plasma skin test (APST) are simple tests for diagnosing chronic autoimmune urticaria (CAU). However, there are still some questions about the specificity of these tests. This study consisted of 50 patients with chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) and ...
متن کاملAutologous serum and plasma skin test to predict 2-year outcome in chronic spontaneous urticaria
BACKGROUND Autologous serum skin test (ASST) and autologous plasma skin test (APST) are simple methods to diagnose autoimmune chronic urticaria. However, the association data of ASST or APST with disease severity and long-term outcome are still unclear. OBJECTIVE The results of ASST and APST might be used to predict urticaria symptom severity and long-term outcomes among chronic spontaneous u...
متن کاملHLA among Brazilian patients with spontaneous chronic urticaria and positive autologous serum skin test.
BACKGROUND An association between class I and II alleles of the major histocompatibility complex and idiopathic chronic urticaria has previously been observed in different populations, but there are still no studies on Brazilian populations in this regard. OBJECTIVE The involvement of the major histocompatibility complex classes I and II (loci A, B and DR) in Brazilian patients with idiopathi...
متن کاملAllergic diseases of the skin and drug allergies – 2024. Autoserum therapy in autologous serum skin test positive patients of chronic spontaneous urticaria
Background Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) patients demonstrate functional autoantibodies against high affinity receptors of IgE (FcerI). Autologous serum skin test(ASST)is mostly used in chronic spontaneous urticaria to show its autoreactivity. ASST positive patients represent a severe group which can be benefited from autoserum therapy (AST). So, aim of our study is to evaluate the effica...
