IMMUNOGLOBULIN SERUM CONCENTRATIONS DO NOT CORRELATE WITH ACUTE APPENDICITIS
Carvalho, Nuno; Carolino, Elisabete; Carvalho, Isabel; Lisboa, Vanessa; Coelho, Hélder; Trindade, Madalena; Vaz, João; Moita, Luís; Costa, PauloImmunoglobulins are a central component of humoral immunity and their serum concentrations are routinely determined in clinical practice because they provide key information on the humoral immune status. In a single centre prospective design study, we evaluated IgA, IgE, IgG, and IgM serum concentrations in patients with histologically confirmed acute appendicitis (study group, N=54) and compared it to the cont...

Carvalho, Nuno; Carolino, Elisabete; Coelho, Hélder; Cóias, Ana; Trindade, Madalena; Vaz, João; Cismasiu, Brigitta; Moita, Catarina; Moita, LuisAppendicitis is the most common abdominal surgical emergency, but its aetiology is not fully understood. We and others have proposed that allergic responses play significant roles in its pathophysiology. Eosinophils and Interleukin (IL)-5 are involved in a hypersensitivity type I reaction. Eosinophil infiltration is common in the allergic target organ and is dependent on IL-5. In the presence of an allergic com...
