Allergic examination using PPD-tuberculins is the main method of life-time tuberculosis diagnostics in farm animals and poultry. However, it known about a decrease diagnostic value allergic reactions after irradiation animals, occurrence non-specific, pseudo-allergic reactions. One reasons for manifestation non-specific may be autosensitisation (autoallergisation) body by breakdown products per...

Antinuclear antibodies (ANA) are primarily significant in the diagnosis of systemic connective tissue diseases. The relationship between their occurrence in allergic diseases is poorly documented. However, the mechanism of allergic and autoimmune diseases has a common thread. In both cases, an increased production of IgE antibodies and presence of ANA in selected disease entities is observed. E...

background: the possible association between allergy and neoplastic disorders has been the subject of many investigations but no general relationship has been determined. little attention, however, has been paid to the possible role of allergy in the clinical manifestations of these diseases. in this study, the role of allergy in the susceptibility to uterine leiomyomas and in their growth was ...

BACKGROUND Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) provide modern agriculture with improvements in efficiency and the benefits of enhanced food production; however, the potential impact of GMOs on human health has not yet been clarified. OBJECTIVE To investigate the allergenicity of isopentenyltransferase (ipt)-transformed broccoli compared with non-GM broccoli. METHODS Sera from allergic ind...

BACKGROUND The prevalence of allergic diseases such as asthma, allergic rhinitis and atopic dermatitis is increasing rapidly worldwide, especially among children and in western countries. This coincides with an increase in body mass index (BMI), which might be a major risk factor for atopic diseases. OBJECTIVES To study the relationship between high BMI and allergic diseases, as well as skin-...

BACKGROUND Allergic asthma is a globally respiratory inflammatory disease. Influenza virus is a respiratory pathogen that causes yearly epidemics and results in high rates of morbidity and mortality. Patients with allergic asthma had a more severe symptom and a higher mortality when they were infected with influenza virus. Hence, influenza vaccination is recommended for patients with asthma. ...

BACKGROUND Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways driven by T cell activation. Th2 cells and their cytokines are thought to play a role in the pathophysiology of allergic as well as non-allergic asthma. METHODS Airway cells were obtained by sputum induction from 15 healthy and 39 asthmatic individuals and the airway T cell cytokine profiles (interleukin (IL)-4, IL-5, IL-13, ...

Background: Chronic rhinitis in children is a common problem. Investigation to diagnose allergic (AR) using skin prick test for aeroallergens requires specialist doctor, which not simply performed primary health care facilities. Therefore, diagnosing patients with AR and non-allergic (NAR) based on clinical symptoms essential treatment planning. This study compared between NAR, comorbidities, d...
