1. Allergic sensitization pattern of patients in Brazil
Abstract Objective Allergic sensitization is one of the key components for the development of allergies. Polysensitization seems to be related to the persistence and severity of allergic diseases. Furthermore, allergic sensitization has a predictive role in the development of allergies. The aim of this study was to characterize the pattern of sensitization

5. Parâmetros espirométricos e níveis de IFN-y e IL-5 no escarro induzido de pacientes com asma ou rinite alérgicas
Asthma and allergic rhinitis are mediated by IgE antibodies through the development of allergen-specific Th2 cells in genetically predisposed and sensitized subjects. Asthma and rinithis are frequently associated, suggesting the concept of one airway, one disease. The aims of this study were to analyze spirometrics parameters and IFN-γ and IL-5 levels i

6. Clinical and immunological investigations of respiratory disease in workers using reactive dyes.
A questionnaire survey of over 400 workers handling reactive dyes showed that over 15% had work related respiratory or nasal symptoms. Forty nine employees with symptoms were referred to chest clinics for detailed assessment. It was considered that in 19 the symptoms could be attributed to an irritant response to a variety of chemicals, including hydrochlori

7. Respiratory disease in cork workers (`suberosis') 1
Pimentel, J. Cortez, and Avila, Ramiro (1973).Thorax, 28, 409-423. Respiratory disease in cork workers (`suberosis'). A clinical, immunological, and histological study of 63 workers in the cork industry with bronchopulmonary manifestations is described. From this study, it was possible to recognize three types of reaction to the inhalation of cork dust: asth

8. Infant feeding, wheezing, and allergy: a prospective study.
The determinants of wheezing and allergy were investigated in 453 children with a family history of allergic disease. A randomised controlled trial examined the effects of withholding cows' milk protein during the first three months of life and replacing cows' milk with soya milk. The children were followed up to the age of 7 years. Withholding cows' milk di

9. Occupational respiratory disease in the United Kingdom 1989: a report to the British Thoracic Society and the Society of Occupational Medicine by the SWORD project group.
A voluntary scheme for the surveillance of work related and occupational respiratory disease (SWORD) was established in January 1989 with help from the British Thoracic Society and the Society of Occupational Medicine and support from the Health and Safety Executive. Three hundred and fifty four chest physicians representing 90% of the chest clinics in the U

10. Measurement of exposure to mouse urinary proteins in an epidemiological study.
OBJECTIVES: To develop an assay to measure airborne mouse urinary protein (MUP) and to assess the occupational exposure to MUP in the workforce of three establishments as part of an epidemiological study examining the influence of aeroallergen exposure on the development of allergic respiratory disease. METHODS: Personal air samples were collected from nine

11. Allergic airway disease in Italian bakers and pastry makers.
A survey was carried out on respiratory symptoms and skin prick test response to common allergens (atopy), storage mites, and occupational allergens among 226 bakers and pastry makers from 105 small businesses in northern Italy. Atopy was present in 54 workers (23.4%); 40 workers (17.7%) were skin positive to at least one storage mite, 27 (11.9%) to wheat fl

12. Asthma, allergy, and atopy in three south-east Asian populations.
BACKGROUND--Whilst many recent reports have suggested a rise in the prevalence of asthma and allergic disease in Western countries, little is known about the epidemiology of these common conditions in south-east Asia. This study compared the prevalence of asthma and allergic disease amongst secondary school students in three south-east Asian populations--Hon
