BACKGROUND Detection of specific IgE antibodies against food materials indicates allergic sensitization. Some very widely consumed foods materials such as garlic and onion have rarely been investigated for their allergenic potential. OBJECTIVES To assess the presence of garlic and onion specific IgE antibodies in patients investigated for food allergy. METHODS Radioallergosorbent test (RAST...

background: diagnosis of food allergy is difficult in children. food allergies are diagnosed using several methods that include medical histories, clinical examinations, skin prick and serum-specific immunoglobulin e (ige) tests, radio-allergosorbent test (rast), food challenge, and supervised elimination diets. in this study we evaluated allergies to cow's milk, egg, peanut, and fish in c...

In 2004, the SEED (http://pubseed.theseed.org/) was created to provide consistent and accurate genome annotations across thousands of genomes and as a platform for discovering and developing de novo annotations. The SEED is a constantly updated integration of genomic data with a genome database, web front end, API and server scripts. It is used by many scientists for predicting gene functions a...

The repeated sprint ability (RSA), counter-movement jump (CMJ) performance and upper-body strength are very important variables in high-level basketball competition. However, the relationships among these variables are poorly studied in elite basketball players. Thus, the purpose of this research is to study the relationships among the Running-Based Anaerobic Speed Test (RAST), the CMJ and uppe...

THE PURPOSE OF THIS STUDY WAS TO PROPOSE A SPECIFIC LACTATE MINIMUM TEST FOR ELITE BASKETBALL PLAYERS CONSIDERING THE: Running Anaerobic Sprint Test (RAST) as a hyperlactatemia inductor, short distances (specific distance, 20 m) during progressive intensity and mathematical analysis to interpret aerobic and anaerobic variables. The basketball players were assigned to four groups: All positions ...

This paper presents the development of a nodal diffusion code, RAST-V, and its verification validation for VVER (vodo–vodyanoi energetichesky reactor) analysis. A analytic solver has been implemented in an in-house RAST-K. The new RAST-K version, uses triangle-based polynomial expansion method. code provides stand-alone two-step computation modes steady-state transient calculations. An lattice ...

Background: In our 1976 controlled venom immunotherapy trial, 33% of 182 patients with a history of systemic reactions to insect stings were excluded because of negative venom skin test responses. There have been reports of patients with negative skin test responses who have had severe reactions to subsequent stings. Objective: Our aim is to increase awareness about the patient with a negative ...
