[The food bronchial stimulation test (FBST) is a new method for the diagnosis of food allergens. Study of 86 children with food allergy with respiratory manifestations].
The study has been conducted an one hundred children with positive anamnesis for eczema, nasal obstruction, restriction of larynx and/or trachea and bronchus, under-hearing and nightly snoring. The use of the method of bronchial stimulation test with food has demonstrated to useful in the diagnosis of food allergens. Examination of food's allergen allowed me to formulate a table of foods allergenicity and to underline some anamnestic and physiopathologic data of lung capacity and the opening of nasal ways associated with food allergy. I've noted some important rays and bronchoscopic data in association with particular kinds of symptomatology due to the foods introduction. The exclusion of foods thought responsible of the obstructive symptomatology in the subjects caused the return to normality of spirometers rhinomanometric values and, in the subjects rather deaf, of audiometric and impedantiometric values.
