[Skin and bronchial provocation tests with inhalation allergens in asthmatics].

The examination was performed in 122 asthmatics with mean age of 32 years. Intracutaneous tests with inhalation allergens of 1200 PNU (protein nitrogen units) and bronchoprovocation tests with histamine and inhalation allergens of pollen and homedust. Effects of allergens of homedust and pollen obtained by intracutaneous and bronchoprovocation tests were compared. The Fischer exact test showed no statistically significant relationship between tests (intracutaneous and bronchoprovocation) for allergens of pollen and homedust (p = 0.081, p greater than 0.05, that is, p = 0.702, p greater than 0.05).

[Comparison of bronchial reactivity to prostaglandin F2 alpha and histamine].

Bronchial reactivity to prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF2 alpha) and histamine have been examined in 15 asthmatics and 8 healthy youngsters. The degree of reactivity was estimated on the basis of values of PC20 PGF2 alpha and histamine [provocative concentration of PGF2 alpha and histamine in mg/l which lead to the fall in the expiration volume in the first second (FEV1) for 20% of the basal value]. In the group of asthmatics statistically significant correlation was found between PC20 PGF2 alpha and histamine values (r = 0.538, p less than 0.05).
