Abstract:
The study was carried out on 56 asthma patients to show some remarks on value of method of quantifying specific antibodies IgE in identifying acute atopy in asthma patients. Primary results showed that method of quantifying specific antibodies IgE in serum had sensitivity of 67.56% and specificity of 89.47% according to ≥2 score scale. Acute atopy diagnosis by clinical standards correlated strongly with acute atopy diagnosis by method of quantifying specific antibodies IgE in serum.
