Abstract

The aim of our study was to describe the spectrum of sensitization in infants with atopic dermatitis (AD) and to assess its relationship with the severity of disease. 62 young children aged from 10 to 36 months with mild to severe AD were included into the study. Sensitization was detected by measurement of specific IgE antibodies (ImmunoCAP, Sweden). Sensitization was determined in 51 AD infants (82,2%): 40 patients (64,5%) were sensitized to food allergens, 36 (61,2%) - to aeroallergens, 26 (41,9%) - to both food and inhalant allergens. Statistical analysis has revealed the strong positive association between severity of AD and sensitization to aeroallergens (molds, pollen, and animal dander).
