Clinical Analysis of Neonatal Food Protein Induced Enterocolitis Syndrome in 137 Newborn Infants

DOI:

10.7727/wimj.2016.491

Synopsis:

This study examined the potential causative factors, clinical features and prognosis of FPIES in newborns by doing a retrospective analysis on 137 infants in China. They observed a year over year increase in the number of cases of FPIES mainly among term infants delivered by caesarean and receiving mixed feeding.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To explore the clinical characters, diagnosis, therapy and prognosis of neonatal food protein induced enterocolitis syndrome (NFPIES) to provide a reference for diagnosis and treatment.

Diagnostic Value of Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio in Allergy Patients

Issue:

Vol 69, Issue 4: 2021

DOI:

10.7727/wimj.2015.242

Pages:

227-9

Synopsis:

This study was conducted to investigate the association between neutrophil lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and the progression of the disease in the cases of acute allergic reactions. The significantly high NLR in acute allergic reaction cases in this study suggests that it may be a useful diagnostic parameter in allergic reactions.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the relationship between the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and the clinical characteristics of the acute allergic reaction patients diagnosed in an emergency clinic.

Surgical Excision and Autograft after Allergic Reaction to Tattoo Ink: A Case Report

Issue:

Vol 65, Issue 3: 2016

DOI:

10.7727/wimj.2014.304

Pages:

572-74

ABSTRACT

A 29-year old female patient suffered a hypersensitivity reaction after having a tattoo placed on the supra-malleolar area of her right leg. Among other substances, the tattoo ink used contained red dye. Since the allergic reaction and its subsequent complications were recalcitrant to conventional medical treatment, it was finally necessary to surgically remove the tattoo and cover the area with an autograft.
