title: [The correlation between levels of IgE in cord blood in newborn infants and a family history of allergy].
abstract: The cord blood IgE level was assayed in 110 unselected newborn infants during the period from Jan. 15-March 24, 1993. Serum IgE levels ranged between 0.19-2.8 IU/ml with a median value of 0.34 IU/ml. The group of newborn was subdivided into two groups based on family history of allergy: high risk and low risk. The geometric means, range and median values of cord blood IgE levels were calculated in each of these groups. The median value of the cord blood IgE level was significantly higher in the high risk group (0.40 IU/ml) than in the low risk group (0.34 IU/ml) (p < 0.005).
