Abstract
Aim: To evaluate Patients and Methods: 27 newborns (13 F, mean GA : 277 days, mean BW: 3890 g) were included ; FHa and IEA was evaluated, a blood sample collected from cord blood to measure serum ECP, nasal and rectal tampons executed at birth to count eosinophyls. Statist ical analysis: Anova test and t-student test. Results: 11 newborns had FHa, and 2 had IEA (group A). We attributed a score from 0 to 3 at the FHa and the IEA. Group A got 11 points, while the group without a family risk of atopy got 4 points. The mean values of ECP value was 65.5 µ/ml in group A and 7.8 µ/ml in group B (p 13,5 µg/l, FHa and IEA) with the assignment of a diagnostic score in clinical practice can be useful to apply early environmental and dietary prevention measures.
