Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between allergic reaction and fungus sensitinogen in patients with chronic colitis. Methods Skin test with 3 groups of fungus allergen (6 types), eosinophil detection in serum and intestinal secretion and serum specific IgE (SIgE) test were tested in 246 patients with chronic colitis. The other 61 patients with chronic diarrhea were served as control. Results Fungus positive was found in 110 patients (43.09%) in dermal fungus allergen test, but only 8.20% in control (P<0.01). In patients with chronic colitis, the positive rates of eosinophil in intestinal secretion and specific IgE induced by fungus allergen were 29.35% and 41.60% respectively. Conclusion It is indicated that some patients with chronic colitis have correlation with allergic reaction of digestive system induced by food with fungus allergen.
