Abstract:
We evaluated the relationships between hypersensitivity to apple pulp and birch pollinosis in Hokkaido. 1. Seventeen (20%) of 83 patients with birch pollinosis (symptom and CAP positive) were revealed to be hypersensitive to apple pulp, which was a higher rate than that found in patients with other pollinoses. 2. Among the patients with birch pollinosis, the higher was the CAP score of birch pollen, the higher was the incidence of hypersensitivity to apple pulp.
