Pollen sensitization among Egyptian patients with respiratory allergic diseases.

Pollen is responsible for seasonal allergies, such as allergic rhino-conjunctivitis (AR), and has become a growing public health concern. Climate change affects the range of allergenic species as well as the timing and length of the pollen season. In Egypt, data on pollinosis are scarce.

Roza: a new and comprehensive metric for evaluating classification systems.

Many metrics such as accuracy rate (ACC), area under curve (AUC), Jaccard index (JI), and Cohen's kappa coefficient are available to measure the success of the system in pattern recognition and machine/deep learning systems. However, the superiority of one system to one other cannot be determined based on the mentioned metrics. This is because such a system can be successful using one metric, but not the other ones.

Study of selective immunoglobulin A deficiency among Egyptian patients with food allergy.

Introduction: IgA deficiency is one of the commonest primary antibody deficiencies. Although many affected individuals could be asymptomatic, selected patients suffer from recurrent mucosal infections, allergies, and autoimmune diseases.

Aim Of The Study: To investigate the prevalence of IgA deficiency among Egyptian patients with food allergy.

Activation of coagulation in chronic urticaria in relation to disease severity and activity.

Background: The pathogenesis of chronic urticaria is incompletely understood. There is growing interest in the role of the coagulation cascade in chronic urticaria. We aimed to assess the possible activation of the coagulation cascade in chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) in relation to disease severity and activity.
