Abstract

MACHADO DEL RISCO, Edilberto; ROMERO GONZALEZ, Ana Dahisy  and  NICOLAU PESTANA, Elizabeth. Sensibilidad celular a bacterias en pacientes con diagnóstico de dermatitis atópica: Cellular sensibility to bacterias in patient with diagnosis of atopic dermatitis. AMC [online]. 2009, vol.13, n.2, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1025-0255.

Background: The patient with atopic dermatitis frequently suffers bacterial infection in cutaneous lesions what facilitates the process of sensitization. Objective: To determine the cellular sensitization in vivo to bacterias in patient with diagnosis of atopic dermatitis. Method: A paired 1:1 case control study was carried out in patients with diagnosis of atopic dermatitis attended in the  allergy consultation at the Educational Provincial Clinical Surgical Hospital "Amalia Simoni" of Camagüey city, from January 2006 to July 2007. The patients were selected of the universe of sick people with diagnosis of atopic dermatitis. Results: Of the tested bacterial antigens the biggest answer was obtained to the Staphylococcus aureus. The bacteria of positive bigger answer according to the diameter of the node was Staphylococcus aureus, which was the germ that produced bigger cellular sensitization in the atopic dermatitis. Conclusions: The positive answer to the delayed tests with bacterial antigens in the atopic dermatitis was high.

Keywords : Bacterial sensitization; atopic dermatitis; Staphylococcus aureus.
