Application of Food-specific IgG Antibody Detection in Allergy Dermatosis.

The application of food-specific IgG antibody detection in allergy dermatoses was explored. 181 patients with allergy dermatoses were diagnosed from January to September 2014 and 20 healthy subjects were selected. Fourteen kinds of food-specific IgG antibodies were detected by ELISA method among all the subjects. The positive rates of IgG antibody of the patient group and the healthy group were respectively 65.2% and 5.0%. The positive rates of IgG antibody of egg, milk, shrimp and crab took a large proportion in three groups of patients with three kinds of allergy dermatoses of urticaria, eczema and allergic dermatitis, the proportion of which was respectively 70.2%, 77.8% and 71.7%. Among urticaria and allergic dermatitis patients with positive antibody, the positive rate of children was significantly higher than that of adults (p<0.05) while there was no significant difference between children and adults among eczema patients with positive antibody (p>0.05). Allergy dermatoses are closely related to food-specific IgG antibodies, and the allergy dermatoses patients have a high incidence rate of food intolerance; detecting IgG antibody in the serum of patients is of great significance for the diagnosis and treatment of allergy dermatoses.

Effect of moutan cortex extract on Th17 cells of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus / 中国生化药物杂志

Objective To study the effect of moutan cortex extract on Th17 cells of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients, so as to provide reference for clinical practice.Methods A total of 168 SLE patients admitted to our hospital from March 2012 to August 2013 were selected as subjects, andrandomized into the observation group and control group.84 patients in observation group received moutan cortex extract treatment and 84 patients in control group received conventional medical treatment.The Th17 and Th1 cell percentage of two groups before and after treatment were compared, and the incidence of adverse reactions were observed.Results All the indicators before treatment showed no statistically significant differences between two groups.After treatment, the Th17 cell percentage of observation group decreased to (0.27 ±0.15)%, and the Th1 cell percentage increased to (2.53 ± 1.72)%, showing more significant changes than control group (P<0.05).The reduction of IL-6 level, SLEDAI score and ESR after treatment were more significant in observation group than in control group(P<0.05).The incidence of adverse reactions was lower in observation group than in control group ( P <0.05 ) .Conclusion Moutan cortex extract can effectively improve the condition of SLE through reducing the Th17 cell percentage and increasing Th1 cell percentage with less adverse reactions.
