Prevalencia comparada de sensibilización a géneros de hongos alergénicos en pacientes con alergias respiratorias provenientes de Michoacán y Altos de Jalisco-León, Gto., años 2004-2006 vs 2007-2009
A study was realized to detect the prevalence of sensitization to alergenic fungi in Mexican patients with respiratory allergies. Skin prick test was practiced to 299 patients with asthma (165) and allergic rhinitis (134) from Michoacan State and Jalisco-León, Gto. Alternaria (35,3%), Mucor (24,1%),...

| Sumario: | A study was realized to detect the prevalence of sensitization to alergenic fungi in Mexican patients with respiratory allergies. Skin prick test was practiced to 299 patients with asthma (165) and allergic rhinitis (134) from Michoacan State and Jalisco-León, Gto. Alternaria (35,3%), Mucor (24,1%), Aspergillus (23,2%), Hormodendrium (23,2%), Helmintosporium (20,6%) and Candida (18,9%) were the fungi genera more frequently appeared during the test. The sensitization to fungal allergens was increased during the periods evaluated, for the patients from Michoacan varied from 19.23% (2004-2006) to 80.76% (2007-June 2009) and for the patients from Altos de Jalisco-Leon, Gto. the percentages detected were 48.88% and 51.11%, respectively. In adition, differences between the frequency of fungi genera caused positive skin prick test between both 2 regions (x= 154,226, gl = 10, p< 0.001) were observed. |
