RESUMO
Objective:To study the total serum IgE level of infant's asthmatic diseases in acute attacks and its effect on the development of wheezing.Method:The serum IgE levels of 964 children(younger than two years old)diag- nosed as asthmatic bronchitis or bronehiolitis were measured by immune dispersion nephelometer.Result:78.9% childrens had high E levels(females took up 25.9% and males,74.1%),asthmatic bronchitis accounted for 92.3% of the total and bronehiolitis,60.3%.Of the 328 infants involved in our research,76 were diagnosed as asthma at last,which accoun- ted for 23.2%.Conclusion:78.9% infants had a high level of IgE in an acute phase.There was a prominent relativity be- tween IgE and the development of asthma.The increased IgE level of asthmatic bronchitis was obviously higher than that of the bronchiolitis.There appeared to be a connection between the IgE level and the occurrence of asthmatic bronchitis to- gether with the development of asthma.
RESUMO
We evaluated median value and lower confidence limit of total serum IgE level in each age group of 1,493 pure atopic dermatitis patient without respiratory atopic diseases. The results were as follows . 1. The median value of total serum IgE level of each age group in patients with atopic dermatitis distributed from 56.5 IU/@Ll to 660It.J/C. The distributions of the median value of total serum IgE levels of total patients with atopic dermatitis, total male patients with atopic dermatitis, and total female patients with atopic dermatitis were 185 IU/C, 220 IUj'@C, and 165 IUj'C. There was no statistical significance of median value of total serum IgE level between mole patients and female patients. 2. The 95% and 99% lower confidence limit(one-sided) of total serum IgE level of ea.ch age group in patients with atopic dermatitis distributed from 32.6 IU /n4 to 287IU/v4 and from 31 IU/m0 to 202 IU4. The 95% lower confidence limit (one-sided) of total serum IgE level of total patients with atopic dermatitis, tatal male patients with atopic dermatitis, and. total female patients with atopic dermatitis were 170 II.J/m0, 185 IU,m/l, and 133 IUm/l. The 99% lower confidence limit.(one-sided) of total serum IgE level of total patient with atopic dermatitis, total male patient with atopic dermatitis, and total female patients with atopic dermatitis were 165 IU/ml, 180 IU/ml, and 125 IU/ml.
