Abstract

In this cross sectional study, 111 volunteers with the sign and symptoms of allergic diseases who referred to Ahvaz Jahad-e-daneshgahi polyclinic during 2010-2011 were investigated. All patients were subjected to skin prick test with 24 common allergenic extracts. Data were analyzed by SPSS-18 software using Chi square test.

Results:

Ninety nine patients (89.2%) had positive skin test to at least one of the aeroallergens. Common outdoor allergens (88%) were higher than indoor allergens (73%). Outdoor allergens with lots of weeds (86%) were the most common allergens. And also among the weeds, Salsola kali were the highest frequency (86.2%); and among the indoor allergen, mites were the highest frequency (40.8%). The average concentration of total serum IgE levels in patients with positive reactions was 156 IU / ml.
