IgE serum levels were determined by PRIST in 56 patients suffering from urinary schistosomiasis and in 39 healthy subjects living in the Coriolei area, south of Mogadishu. Abnormally high IgE values (as referred to normal values found in European healthy controls) were observed in 87.5% of the patients, the mean average being 1359.58 +/- 721.11 U/ml in schistosomiasis and 430.57 +/- 600.90 U/ml in Somalian healthy controls (P less than 0.01). The possible role of IgE in parasitic infection is discussed.
采用PRIST法测定了56例埃及血吸虫病患者及39名居住在摩加迪沙以南科里奥莱地区的健康人的血清IgE水平。在87.5%的患者中观察到IgE值异常升高(相对于欧洲健康对照的正常水平),埃及血吸虫病患者的平均IgE水平为1359.58±721.11 U/ml,索马里健康对照者为430.57±600.90 U/ml(P<0.01)。文中讨论了IgE在寄生虫感染中的可能作用。
