This study was carried out to assess the occurrence of food hypersensitivity (type I) in adults. The diagnosis of food allergy, based on suggestive history and positive skin prick test and/or RAST, was established in 30 (0.98%) of 3034 patients over 14 years of age who were attended between June 1992 and March 1993. The foods implicated were as follows: fruit (46.8%), dried fruits (19.1%), seafood (14.9%), vegetables (12.8%), fish (4.2%) and chicken eggs (2.1%). This study confirmed the low occurrence of food allergy in adulthood. The differences found with regard to the sensitizing foods (cow's milk and eggs were infrequent; fruit, seafood and vegetables were common) may be attributed to dietary habits in our geographical region.
本研究旨在评估成人食物过敏（I型）的发生率。在1992年6月至1993年3月期间就诊的3034名14岁以上患者中，有30名（0.98%）根据提示性病史以及阳性皮肤点刺试验和/或放射变应原吸附试验确诊为食物过敏。涉及的食物如下：水果（46.8%）、干果（19.1%）、海鲜（14.9%）、蔬菜（12.8%）、鱼类（4.2%）和鸡蛋（2.1%）。本研究证实了成人食物过敏的发生率较低。在致敏食物方面发现的差异（牛奶和鸡蛋不常见；水果、海鲜和蔬菜常见）可能归因于我们所在地理区域的饮食习惯。
