Abstract:
We read Cosansu's commentary entitled ''Hematological parameters in patients with chronic spontaneous urticaria'' to our study with a great interest. The author noted that monocytes increased in inflammatory diseases such as urticaria but decreased after treatment. She argued that NMR was not used as an inflammatory marker in previous studies, so that NMR should not be used to evaluate the response to omalizumab treatment in urticaria and decreased by chance. We thank the author for her interest in our article.
