Öğe Diagnosing egg and milk hypersensitivity in children with atopic dermatitis using atopy patch and skin prick tests(Mosby, Inc, 2006) Yazicioglu, M; Ozdagli, U; Kircuval, D; Gorgulu, A; Pala, O[Abstract Not Available]Öğe The first camps in Turkey for asthmatic children(Turkish J Pediatrics, 2005) Önes, Ü; Sapan, N; Yazicioglu, M; Güler, N; Tamay, Z; Somer, A; Canitez, YThe first asthma camp in Turkey was organized for one week in Iznik in September 1996. The camps were continued annually around the same time of the year in 1997, 1998, 2000, and in the consecutive years thereafter. The camp includes educational, sports and social activities. Children's knowledge about asthma and their attitudes towards physical and social activities were evaluated by a questionnaire. Pulmonary function tests were performed on the first and last day of the camp. There was no statistically significant difference between the mean spirometric values of the first and last day of the camp in spite of a vigorous physical and social program. Children enhanced their skills and knowledge about asthma and gained self-confidence in participating in sportive and social activities during the camp program. They did not experience any emergency room visit in the following year.Öğe Indoor airborne fungal spores and home characteristics in asthmatic children from Edirne region of Turkey(Mosby, Inc, 2002) Yazicioglu, M; Asan, A; Önes, Ü; Vatansever, U; Sen, B; Ture, M; Bostancioglu, M[Abstract Not Available]Öğe Sensitization to common allergens, especially pollens, among children with respiratory allergy in the Trakya region of Turkey(Allergy Immunol Soc Thailand,, 2004) Yazicioglu, M; Oner, N; Celtik, C; Okutan, O; Pala, OAsthma and allergic rhinitis are common problems in children and the causative pollen allergens vary according to the geographical area. The aim of this study was to investigate patterns of sensitization to common inhalant allergens, especially pollens, in Turkish children living in the Trakya region and to determine differences between rural and urban areas. Allergen skin testing was prospectively performed on 5:19 children aged between 4 and 17 years with respiratory allergy. The reaction was considered to be positive if the mean wheal diameter was at least 3 mm greater than that of the negative controls. We detected positive skin reactions in 420 (77.9%) children. Two hundred and eighty-one (52.1%) mite, 277 (51.4%) pollen, 174 (32.3%) mold, 65 (12.1%) animal dander, 12 (2.2%) cockroach and 6 (1.1%) latex skin sensitivities were detected. Among the pollen allergies 173 were cereal pollen (32.1%), 170 grass pollen (31.5%) and 144 tree pollen allergies (26.7%). The most common positive skin test among the pollens was to cultivated wheat (Titicum vulgare) (n = 116, 21,5%), followed by rye grass (Lolium perenne) and orchard grass (Dactylis glomerata). Positive skin reactions to Alternaria, to Candida albicans, and to all pollens except Ulmus competris, Pinus sylvetris, Platanus vulgaris and Tilia platyphyllos, were higher in children with allergic rhinitis than in those with asthma. In children from rural areas, allergic skin reactivity was found to be more common against Candida albicans, sheep dander and all pollens except Corylus avellana, Fraxinus excelsior, Populus alba, Pinus sylvetris, Platanus vulgaris and Chenopodium album, than in urban children. Although Trakya is close to Greece and other Mediterranean countries, this study suggests that the pollens, which sensitize children, are not similar.
