Allergy to Apple, Carrot and Potato in Children with Birch Pollen Allergy
Abstract
Skin sensitivity to apple, carrot and potato, clinically related to birch pollinosis was investigated. Different skin test techniques using fresh fruit were compared. A simple prick test (SPI) technique with a lancet piercing the apple peel just before pricking the skin was shown to be the most practical and to give reproducible results. The allergenic activity in apple was found to be heat labile and deteriorated during storage at room temperature, Apple, carrot, potato, hazelnut and birch reactivity was transferable in Prausnitz‐Küstner test like IgE antibodies. SPT reactivity to fresh material from apple, carrot and potato was investigated in 174 children of whom 128 suffered from pollen allergy. Positive SPT results were obtained almost exclusively in children who were SPT positive to a birch pollen extract. Children who noticed clinical symptoms when eating apple, raw carrot or potato were found to have a significantly larger SPT reaction than children with a negative history.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
