Intradermal tests were performed on 58 dogs diagnosed with atopic dermatitis from 2004~2008 at the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of Konkuk University, Korea. To compare the allergen distribution observed in the present investigation to the results from other studies conducted in Korea and elsewhere, the allergens were grouped according to their kinds. There was no significant difference in gender distribution among the dogs. The most common breeds among the 58 dogs were Maltese (n = 11) and Shih-tzu (n = 11). The average age was 4.8 years. The most frequently produced a positive reaction on the intradermal tests was mold (67.3%) followed by house dust (54.5%) and house dust mites (49.1%). The present study found a low distribution of dogs allergic to various outdoor allergens compared to studies performed in other countries; this may reflect differences in living conditions for dogs living in Korea.
2004年至2008年期间,在韩国建国大学兽医学院教学医院对58只被诊断患有特应性皮炎的犬只进行了皮内试验。为了将本研究中观察到的过敏原分布与韩国及其他地区的其他研究结果进行比较,根据过敏原种类对其进行了分组。犬只的性别分布没有显著差异。58只犬中最常见的品种是马尔济斯犬(n = 11)和西施犬(n = 11)。平均年龄为4.8岁。皮内试验中最常产生阳性反应的是霉菌(67.3%),其次是屋尘(54.5%)和屋尘螨(49.1%)。与其他国家进行的研究相比,本研究发现对各种户外过敏原过敏的犬只分布较少;这可能反映了韩国犬只生活条件的差异。
