title: [Ragweed pollinosis in the Gard and the Vaucluse: myth or reality? For the Associated Group of Independent Allergologues and Hospital Staff of Nimes].
abstract: Thirteen allergists reviewed 18 patients living and working in Vaucluse and Gard who suffered from ragweed from August 15 to October 15 2004. This preliminary study showed how difficult it is to realise a clinical data collection about pollinosis. It is entirely necessary to work together to build the protocol, with a clear and valid definition of inclusion and exclusion criteria.
