House dust mite allergy
The importance of the allergens in sensitisation and disease can be readily demonstrated in regions with and without mite infestation. Dose-responce relationships in regions with high infestation are less easy to detect pointing to the importance of variations of other factors. The relationship between allergic disease and IgE antibody shows that only people with very high responses become pers...
متن کاملHouse dust mite sensitivity in childhood asthma.
The clinical features of perennial asthmatic children with a skin or bronchial reaction to the house dust mite (Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus) were compared with those of asthmatic children without mite sensitivity. Mite sensitive asthma was characterised by an early age of onset of symptoms, these being predominantly nocturnal. A history of wheezing precipitated by dust exposure, during vacuu...
متن کاملImmunotherapy of house dust mite allergy
House dust mite (HDM) is a predominant source of indoor aeroallergen worldwide, which induces allergic diseases including allergic rhinoconjunctivitis, allergic asthma, atopic eczema and other allergic skin diseases. Allergen specific immunotherapy (AIT) is the only potential disease-modifying treatment of HDM allergic subjects. However, AIT remains underused due to no universally accepted alle...

متن کاملUsefulness of House Dust Mite Nasal Provocation Test in Asthma
PURPOSE We previously reported that the skin prick test was sensitive and the serum specific immunoglobulin E test was specific for predicting positive airway responses to house dust mites (HDMs) in patients with asthma. Because the nose and bronchus are one airway, the nasal provocation test would be more specific for predicting the bronchial responses to HDM than the skin test. METHODS The ...
