Allergen detection result analysis of 1062 patients with chronic urticaria in Anhui province

Objective To investigate Anhui province patients with chronic urticaria in ingestion and inhalation allergen conditions respectively,in order to provide evidence for prevention and treatment.Methods Enzyme immunoassay method was used to test 1 062 patients with chronic urticaria in allergen-specific lgE antibodies.Results The testing results of 1 062 cases showed that the total of the positive reaction rates reached 48.78%(518 positive cases).Inhalation allergen positive rate was significantly higher than that of ingestion allergen group.The positive reaction rates of the mites and the house dust reached 34.56% and 10.37% respectively,which were the first and the second in the allergens tested.Conclusion Both ingestion allergens and inhalation allergens are contributing causes to chronic urticaria.The mites and the house dust were perhaps the ordinary pathogenic allergens for the patients with chronic urticaria in Anhui province.Identifying the causative factors is of instructive significance for the clinical treatment of chronic urticaria.
