| Study Design: | Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment Masking: Open Label Primary Purpose: Diagnostic |
| Official Title: | Prevalence of Positive Reactions in Atopy Patch Test in Children With Food Allergy-related Gastrointestinal Symptoms |
- Prevalence of positive reaction in APT in children with food allergy-related gastrointestinal symptoms [ Time Frame: 3 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]To evaluate (i) The prevalence of positive reaction of APTs for food allergy-related gastrointestinal diseases. (ii)Positive reaction of APT compare with skin prick test.
- Comparisons atopy patch test reaction between lyophilized allergen and commercial allergen [ Time Frame: 3 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]To evaluate (iii)Positive reaction of APT using lyophilized food vs commercially available food extracts. (iv)Side effect or adverse events of APT

Experimental: Atopy patch test
Atopy patches were applied on food allergy patient's back for 48 hrs then the patches were removed. Reaction was evaluated at 48 and 72 hrs after applying atopy patch test
|
Device: Atopy patch test with food allergen
Atopy patches used with food lyophilized allergen and commercial allergen were placed on back of subjects for 48 hrs then atopy patches were taken off. Subjects should return to evaluate the reaction one day later (72 hr after applying atopy patch test)

Detailed Description:
The prevalence of food allergy seems to be increasing, which might explain the increased demand for reliable evaluation of patients with suspected food-related gastrointestinal symptoms. Little is known about the diagnostic accuracy of atopy patch tests(APT) in the clinical practice. APT seems to have a better specificity than the IgE methods and seems to reflect late-phase clinical reactions.The aims of this study were to evaluate:
(i) The prevalence of positive reaction of APTs for food allergy-related gastrointestinal diseases. (ii)Positive reaction of APT compare with skin prick test. (iii)Positive reaction of APT using lyophilized food vs commercially available food extracts. (iv)Side effect or adverse events of APT
