Analysis of patch test result of 409 patients with dermatitis and eczamz in Xinjiang region
Abstract:Objective To investigate the allergen of dermatitis and eczema in Xinjiang region. Methods Patch test results of 409 Han and Uygur patients with dermatitis and eczema in Xinjiang region, that examined by Beijing Baiyiyida company's reagent, were statistically analyzed. Results Total 348 cases(85.09%) in 409 cases presented positive results in patch test for certain allergen. The main pathogenic factors in Han patients were methanal(42.86%), nickel sulfate(26.69%), white precipitate(22.56%) and merthiolate(18.80%) in turn, and in Uygur patients were nickel sulfate(39.02%), methanal(34.15%), merthiolate(14.63%) and cobaltous oxide(13.41%) in turn. Han patients were more likely susceptible to methanal and white precipitate than Uygur, and Uygur patients were more likely susceptible to nickel sulfate and cobaltous oxide than Han. Conclusion Patch test is a helpful method for identifying the pathogenic factors of dermatitis and eczema, which is an ideal, safety and reliability method for allergen detection. The results of the test may guide the patients to avoid contacting the allergen, and provide theoretic basis for preventing and treating dermatitis and eczema.
