We find that the risks of immediate hypersensitivity to grass and mug wort pollens, as measured by a skin test, are positively correlated with the intensity of the first pollen season encountered in infancy. However, only indirect measures of the int

Early markers of atopic predisposition are needed for targeting allergy preventive measures to high-risk infants. An elevated cord serum immunoglobulin E (CS-IgE) level is considered a risk factor for subsequent allergy in childhood. However, the pre

Cell locomotion and chemotaxis are usually assayed by the Boyden chamber technique, in which the response is measured by microscopical counting of the cells migrated into a micropore filter. We report a simplified Boyden chamber method which utilizes

We evaluated the usefulness of eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) in induced sputum and in serum as markers of asthmatic inflammation in children. We measured ECP in serum and in total induced sputum samples from 14 children (7-11 years) with newly de
