Five commercially available devices for performing prick skin testing were compared for reproducibility, patient acceptance, occurrence of false-negative skin test results, and size distribution of reactions at the negative control sites. Reproducibility of skin testing with 10 mg/ml histamine base
This study examined cutaneous mast cell behaviour in 14 patients with chronic urticaria but no dermographism and 11 healthy controls, by measuring cutaneous weal and flare reactions evoked in response to intradermal challenge injections of 0.1 ml isotonic saline, histamine
Background: Recent studies have demonstrated that activated microglia were involved in the pathogenesis of central sensitization characterized by cutaneous allodynia in migraine. Activation of microglia is accompanied by increased expression of its receptors and release of inflammatory mediators. Acupuncture and
