    Anaphylactic reaction to ranitidine (1993)

    Notes: Ranitidine is a well-tolerated H2-receptor antagonist with a furan ring a nucleus. Anaphylactic reactions are seldom reported despite the wide use the drug. We report a patient who presented an anaphylactic reaction with ranitidine (Zantac). The positive skin prick test and oral challenge suggest type I hypersensitivity. Specific IgE determination by RAST technique and histamine release test with ranitidine were negative. The patient did not react to other H2-receptor antagonists or to another furan-derivative (nitrofurantoin).

    Severe anaphylactic reaction to thymostimulin (1991)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd

    Notes: Thymostimulin is a partially purified extract of calf thymus, consisting of a group of polypeptides with a total molecular weight of approximately 12,000 D. It is used as an immunologic response modifier in primary and secondary immunodeficiencies. We report a patient who had a severe anaphylactic reaction with the first injection of thymostimulin. Type I hypersensitivity to thymostimulin was suggested by an immediate skin test response, specific IgE determination by indirect ELISA and a positive histamine release test. This patient also reacted to bovine serum albumin (BSA), fetal calf serum (PCS) and cow hair and dander. The controls did not react to any of these tests. Clinicians need to be aware that the use of medical products of xenogeneic origin may lead to severe allergic reactions.

    Occupational asthma in a hairdresser caused by persulphate salts (1992)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Persulphate salts, which are common constituents of hair bleaches, have occasionally been reported to cause occupational asthma in hairdressers. We describe the clinical and immunological studies carried out in a hairdresser who developed cutaneous and respiratory symptoms, about 1 year after being employed in a hairdressing salon. Skin prick tests with 1:5 w/v potassium and sodium persulphate extracts were positive in our patient at 15 min and negative in control subjects. The European standard contactans (ECDRG) and a battery of hairdressing agents were patch tested with positive result to KATHON CG (isothiazolinone). The methacholine-inhalation test showed airway hyper responsiveness. Bronchial provocation test with a 1:50 w/v potassium persulphate extract elicited a non immediate asthmatic reaction, followed by recurrent nocturnal fall in FEV, lasting up to 3 days after the test. Plethysmography results revealed air trapping caused by a marked increase of airway resistance 3 h after the specific bronchial challenge. Histamine release test was not conclusive, and the determinations of specific IgA, IgM, IgG and IgG subclasses by EIA and IgE by RAST against persulphate salts were negative.

    Hypersensitivity pneumonitis due to an ultrasonic humidifier (1998)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Allergy 53 (1998), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1398-9995

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: We describe a woman with hypersensitivity pneumonitis that was related to using a home ultrasonic humidifier. A micronodular infiltrate was seen in her chest radiograph. The inhalation challenge test was performed with the humidifier, and she exhibited a positive response. The cultures of the humidifier water grew Candida albicans, Rhodotorula spp., and Aspergillus spp. The test for precipitating antibodies against the humidifier water gave a positive response, and specific IgG, IgM, and IgA antibodies against extracts of A. fumigattis, C. albicans, and Rhodotorula spp. were demonstrated in the patient's serum by ELISA. A strong, dose-dependent inhibition of Rhodotorula IgG-ELISA by humidifier water was observed, suggesting that Rhodotorula might be the cause of hypersensitivity pneumonitis in this patient.

    Bronchial asthma induced by chick pea and lentil (1992)

    Notes: Martin JA, Compaired JA, dc la Hoz B, Quirce S, Alonso MD, Igca JM, Losada E. Bronchial asthma induced by chick pea and lentil.Allergic reactions to legumes through inhalation have rarely been described. We report the case of a 20-year-old man who experienced asthmatic attacks when exposed to the steam from cooking either chick pea or lentil. Type I hypersensitivity to the antigens in these legumes was demonstrated by means of immediate skin reactivity, histamine release tests, RAST and RAST inhibition. Specific bronchial challenges with the heated (75° for 30 min) extracts of chick pea and lentil elicited isolated immediate responses.

    Farm animal feeders: another group affected by cereal flour asthma (1988)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Allergy 43 (1988), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1398-9995

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Asthma induced by cereal flour is a long recognized entity. We present studies of three patients affected by asthma related to exposure to cereal flour contained in animal formula feeds. Skin prick test performed with the formula feed components showed positive reactions to cereal flours (wheat, rye and barley) and negative to the other substances in these formulas. Specific anti-wheat, rye and barley flour IgE antibodies were found by RAST. Bronchial provocation tests (BPT) with wheat flour (patients 1 and 2) and barley flour (patient S) all showed immediate responses. These findings suggest that our patients' symptoms were caused by an IgE-mediated hypersensitivity to cereal flours from animal formula feeds. We call attention to the importance of cereal flours in animal formula feeds as a cause of occupational asthma in farm animal feeders.

    Notes: Type I hypersensitivity to pistachio nut antigens was demonstrated in three patients by means of immediate skin-test reuctivily. specific IgF determination by a lluoro-immunoassay (CAP). CAP-inhibition and leucocyte histamine release. Sensitization to other dried fruils and pollens was observed in the patients. The CAP-inhibition studies revealed signilicLint crossreactivity between pistachio and cashew nut belonging to the Anacardiaceae family, and between pistachio nut and other dried fruits belonging to taxonomically unrelated botanical families. No relevant crossallergenicity was observed between pistachio nut and Lolium and Olca pollens.Sodium dodecyi sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) of a pistachio nut extract followed by immunoblotting analysis identified four IgE-binding bands with molecular weights of 34. 41. 52 and 60 kD.

    Occupational asthma caused by African maple (Obeche) and Ramin: evidence of cross reactivity between these two woods (1986)

    Notes: Four patients with occupational asthma were studied. All patients were exposed to African maple dust and two of them were also exposed to Ramin dust. Skin tests and bronchial provocation tests with African maple extracts revealed an immediate response in all patients, and the same tests performed with Ramin extracts again revealed an immediate reaction in either exposed or non-exposed patients to Ramin wood dust. Specific IgE antibodies against African maple extracts were demonstrated in all patients as measured by a reverse enzyme immunoassay. Cross reactivity between both woods was demonstrated by a reverse enzyme immunoassay inhibition study. Unexposed persons and exposed asymptomatic workers did not exhibit reactivity to both woods in any of the tests listed above. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first article in which occupational asthma due to Ramin is defined, and cross sensitivity between two different woods is demonstrated.

    Hypertrichosis lanuginosa acquisita preceding extraskeletal Ewing's sarcoma (2001)

    Notes: A 62-year-old woman with acquired hypertrichosis lanuginosa as a paraneoplastic presenting sign of an extraskeletal Ewing's sarcoma is described. Despite initial comprehensive screening to rule out an associated malignancy, a definitive diagnosis of sarcoma was established only 1 year after the onset of the cutaneous symptoms. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of hypertrichosis lanuginosa acquisita associated with a soft tissue sarcoma. Our observation expands the spectrum of malignancies associated with this uncommon paraneoplastic disorder.
