Abstract
We examined age-related changes in the IgE-mediated allergic reaction in patients with late-onset asthma, whose asthma first occurred at over 40 years. (1)The number of patients with a high serum IgE level (over 300IU/ml) was larger in patients with an age of onset between 40 and 49 (40~49 years group) and in patients older than 60 at age of onset (60~year group) than in patients with an age of onset between 50 and 59 (50~59 year group). (2)A positive RAST score to house dust mite (HDm) allergen was more frequently found in the 40~49 year group and in the 60~ year group than in the 50 ~59 year group. Frequency of positive RAST score to HDm in the 50~59 year group was significantly lower (p
