Results In 16 patients (42.1%) with negative serum specific IgE tests for both fungi and HDM, total IgE ( 76.1 + 64.7 KU/L) was significantly lower than in 14(36.8%) patients with positive serum specific IgE tests for fungi (730.1 + 948.41 KU/L) and in 16 patients (42.1%). with positive serum specific IgE tests for HDM (783.5 + 854.1 KU/L), respectively. In patients with negative serum specific...

Serum IgE concentrations were determined and IgE turnover studies were performed in control individuals as well as in patients with several disease states. Patients with common variable hypogammaglobulinemia, thymoma and hypogammaglobulinemia, ataxia telangiectasia, and selective IgA deficiency had significantly decreased mean serum IgE concentrations. In turnover studies, this was found to be ...

serum ige assay is a mainstay step in the allergy work up. allergenic extracts and molecular components are available at present. this real life study compared the serum specific ige levels against allergenic extracts with allergenic molecules in patients allergic to parietaria, betulaceae , and mites. this retrospective real life study included 489 subjects with respiratory allergy. inclusion ...

Events mediated by immunoglobulin E (IgE) may be related to platelet activation and aggregation, and there may be an association between IgE and pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE). Fourteen patients with PTE were studied with regard to serum concentrations of IgE, IgA, IgG, IgM, fibrinogen, and D-dimer and with regard to blood neutrophil, lymphocyte, platelet, and eosinophil counts during acute an...

Determining the normal range of Immunoglobulin E (IgE) in any population is important for diagnosis of allergic diseases. The aim of this study was to determine normal values of IgE in children living in Tehran. Two-handed and fifty six healthy children aged one month to 14 years were selected. These children had neither parasitic infections nor atopic disease. They were divided into six groups...

psoriasis is a chronic relapsing disorder that involves the skin, nails and joints. with regard to the role of the immune system in psoriasis, the current study compared serum ige concentration in patients with psoriasis with control group. current case-control study was conducted in dermatology clinic of razi hospital, tehran university of medical sciences, tehran, iran in 2012. fifty-eight pa...

BACKGROUND Elevated serum immunoglobulin (Ig) E is a diagnostic marker of immediate-type allergic reactions. We hypothesize that serum IgE does not necessarily reflect total body IgE because in vivo IgE can be bound to cell surface receptors such as FcepsilonRI and FcepsilonRII (CD23). The aim of this study was to analyze the relationships between levels of serum IgE, cell-bound IgE, and IgE-re...

This retrospective study included 133 children aged between 2 and 16 years with elevated serum food-specific immunoglobulin E (IgE), including 59 children clinically diagnosed with atopic dermatitis (AD) and 74 children clinically diagnosed with atopic disease without AD (asthma, allergic rhinitis, or both). Six common serum food-specific IgEs were detected by the Pharmacia ImmunoCAP test, incl...
