[Comparison of specific IgE levels versus various milk proteins in 76 eczematous children].

Among 76 eczematous children, we realized a RAST test for whole milk and milk specific proteins: lactalbumin, lactoglobulin and casein. One of these RAST tests, at least, was positive for 27 children. Whole milk RAST test is the most frequently positive (77%) but some non specific reactions seem to interfere: only three children are clinically milk sensitive. Among specific proteins, lactalbumin is more frequently positive (59%) than lactoglobulin (51%) and casein (18%). Eczematous children with positive milk RAST tests, if compared to other eczematous children, have currently more mite allergies and positive egg RAST tests. They have a tendency (non significative) to be more frequently breast fed. The positivity of milk RAST tests seems to belong to a polysensitization and infrequently concerns a clinical allergy.

[Platelet aggregation and platelet and plasma fatty acid levels in the child with migraine. Apropos of 40 case reports].

The authors have studied platelet aggregability in the presence of ADP and collagen in a population of 40 migrainous children between migraine attacks. They completed their investigations by a qualitative dosage in platelets and in plasma of fatty acids, precursors of prostaglandins, which are well known for their importance in platelet aggregation and vasculomotor reactions. This study was made in comparison with an equal number of controls chosen from the same age-groups. The authors didn't find the hyperaggregability observed by other authors in grown-up populations. They noticed a light-but statistically significant-diminution of linoleic acid in the platelets and in the plasma. A study based on observations does not entirely confirm for certain an alimentary origin.
