title: [Serum IgE values in human scabies: study of 79 cases (author's transl)].
abstract: The authors studied seric IgE levels in 79 patients with scabies: 48 p. 100 had significant elevated concentration of IgE (greater than 300 U. I./ml) (p less than 0,001). This is the fact of scabies infestation and is not the result of internal parasitic infestation, associated illnesses or atopic disease. There is a statistically significant correlation between high IgE levels and degree of extension (p less than 0,1) and, overall, eczematization (or) and superinfection (p less than 0,001).
