Abstract EN
may be an important factor in children with atopic eczema under 4 years.
Our objective was to assess the extent and characteristics of confirmed and unconfirmed diagnoses of AD in 112 children who were diagnosed by Pediatric Allergy Clinic at El-Beyda’s hospital with a high possibility of having AD at some point in their lifetimes.
Sera from the patients were analyzed for specific IgE antibodies to 20 allergens.
About 95% of children with AD have IgE-mediated clinical reactivity.
The prevalence of positive cases with food allergens ranged from 19-20%, and environmental factors ranged from 11-14% for boys and girls respectively.
Positive cases of environmental factors in this population were recorded against some species of plants.
As a result, a combined sensitization to food and environmental allergens not only has an additive increase in serum IgE antibody production, but also increases the risk of developing allergic diseases such as asthma during childhood.
An evaluation for AD should be considered to these children.
