[Clinical aspects and allergy-immunologic parameters in 40 children 0-7 years of age with atopic dermatitis].
Monatsschr Kinderheilkd. 1991 Sep; 139(9):618-25.MK

Abstract

Forty children with atopic dermatitis were evaluated for history, clinical features and allergologic-immunologic parameters. Lichenoid skin lesions were found in 67.5%, follicular lesions in 57.5%, and eczematoid lesions in 50% in children. 25% of children suffered from associated food allergy, 15% from respiratory atopy, and 5% from contact urticaria. The diagnostic efficiency to show specific sensitization was 93% for Pediatric Phadiatop, 90% for Food-Multidisc (fx5 Pharmacia), 88% for skin tests (Prick), 73% for elevated total serum IgE, 65% for Phadiatop, and 60% for family history. The classification of atopic dermatitis into an extrinsic type with specific sensitizations to allergens and into an intrinsic type without specific sensitizations appears to be useful because specific sensitizations significantly correlate with severer skin condition and disease course.
