Total serum IgE and specific anti-mite IgE antibody (IgEAM) were determined in cigarette manufacturing workers with (but not asthma) or without respiratory symptoms (30 cases in each) 16 patients with bronchial asthma, 8 with asthmatic bronchitis and 6 with other respiratory diseases. The total serum IgE level was significantly higher in symptomatic workers (825.8 +/- 22.3 IU/ml) than that of asymptomatic (162.1 +/- 28.0 IU/ml) (P less than 0.001) and patients with other respiratory diseases (P less than 0.05), but was lower than that of patients with bronchial asthma (3310.3 +/- 26.3 IU/ml) and asthmatic bronchitis (2278.4 +/- 25.5 IU/ml) (P less than 0.001). IgEAM was undetectable in all cases except one with asymptomatic worker and one with asthma. The respiratory symptoms in these workers seemed to be related to type I allergic reaction, possibly due to the chemical components in the cigarettes.
对有（但非哮喘）或无呼吸道症状的香烟制造工人（各30例）、16例支气管哮喘患者、8例喘息性支气管炎患者和6例其他呼吸道疾病患者测定了血清总IgE和特异性抗螨IgE抗体（IgEAM）。有症状工人的血清总IgE水平（825.8±22.3 IU/ml）显著高于无症状工人（162.1±28.0 IU/ml）（P<0.001）和其他呼吸道疾病患者（P<0.05），但低于支气管哮喘患者（3310.3±26.3 IU/ml）和喘息性支气管炎患者（2278.4±25.5 IU/ml）（P<0.001）。除1例无症状工人和1例哮喘患者外，所有病例均未检测到IgEAM。这些工人的呼吸道症状似乎与I型过敏反应有关，可能是由于香烟中的化学成分所致。
