Hypersensitivity, Immediate
Research News and Information
Definition of 'Hypersensitivity, Immediate'Hypersensitivity reactions which occur within minutes of exposure to challenging antigen due to the release of histamine which follows the antigen-antibody reaction and causes smooth muscle contraction and increased vascular permeability. Common names: Hypersensitivity, Immediate; Hypersensitivities, Immediate; Immediate Hypersensitivities; Immediate Hypersensitivity; Hypersensitivity, Atopic; IgE-Mediated Hypersensitivity; Hypersensitivities, IgE-Mediated; Hypersensitivity, IgE-Mediated; IgE Mediated Hypersensitivity |

The role of viruses in the development and exacerbation of atopic disease.
30 Aug 2009
OBJECTIVE: To examine data in support of the viral hypothesis of atopic disease. DATA SOURCES: We retrieved review articles and original research from MEDLINE, OVID, and PubMed (1950-June 2009) that addressed our topic of interest, using the terms ... Read more...
Exhaled nitric oxide in evaluation of young adults with chronic cough.
30 Aug 2009
BACKGROUND: Bronchial asthma (A) is frequently diagnosed in patients with chronic cough. The study was conducted to determine whether an evaluation of fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) concentration can be used as a screening test for asthma in ... Read more...
Probiotics and prebiotics: immunological and clinical effects in allergic disease.
17 Aug 2009
The intestinal microbiota plays an important role in immune development and may play a role in the development of allergic disorders. Manipulation of the intestinal microbiota may therefore offer an approach to the prevention or treatment of ... Read more...
