683 patients with hand eczema were examined for history and clinical signs of atopy. 242 of these patients suffered from occupational eczema. In more than 50% of this latter group we saw at least 3 references to atopy. This rate exactly corresponds to one established in 441 patients without industrial eczema but with predominantly definite atopic eczema. Thus, atopy exists largely in patients with occupational eczema and in fact furthers the incidence of this disease relevant in social medicine. Early diagnosis of atopy resulting in efficient vocational guidance can diminish the number of cases of industrial eczema.
对683例手部湿疹患者进行了特应性病史和临床体征检查。其中242例患者患有职业性湿疹。在这后一组患者中，超过50%的人我们发现至少有3处提及特应性。这一比例与441例无工业性湿疹但主要为明确特应性湿疹患者所确定的比例完全一致。因此，特应性在职业性湿疹患者中大量存在，事实上还增加了这种在社会医学中相关疾病的发病率。早期诊断特应性并进行有效的职业指导可以减少工业性湿疹的病例数量。
