[Diagnostic value of immunoglobulin E in serum of infants with spastic bronchitis and cow milk protein allergy depending on the method of examination].
We examined 83 infants suffering from spastic bronchitis and cow milk protein allergy and analyzed the diagnostic value of two allergic tests (Mancini, FAST) commonly used for measuring total IgE (t-IgE) level in serum. The aim of the study was to establish the sensitivity of these two methods. Our statistical analysis proved FAST test to be more sensitive than Mancini one (p < 0.01).
