title: [Studies of specific IgE and IgG antibodies in allergic children. Changes in specific IgE and IgG antibodies to egg white, milk, soybean and mite from children with atopic dermatitis].
abstract: Egg, milk, soybean, mite (DF)-specific IgG and IgE antibodies were measured in 276 atopic dermatitis children in whom dietary restrictions had never been done. We recommend cleaning house and bed clothes to decrease number of mites and elimination diet according to clinical symptoms and laboratory findings. After elimination periods (approximately 140 days) the same specific antibodies were examined again. In the patients who improved clinically by elimination of foods, the specific IgG antibodies to the foods decreased significantly. The other patients did not improved clinically suggesting that inadequate elimination diet were done and cleaning house and bed clothes was incomplete and/or other types of allergic reactions might exist.
