@entity56 as a cause of @entity1744 was investigated by means of exclusion diet and blind provocation. Twelve @entity1097 individuals entered into the study. Skin prick testing with 20 foods and food additives and RAST specific for food only, were done in all cases. Serum IgE level was also measured. In 14 @entity1 one or several food or additives were shown to induce the typical symptoms of @entity5377 . In at least nine cases of atopy, an IgE-mediated mechanism could be incriminated. Among other potential pathogenetic mechanisms, the presence in the intestinal tract of @entity375 ( @entity5132 , Geotrichum candidum) seems to be of major importance. @entity375 apparently favor the development of @entity56 as well as @entity56 , at least in some @entity1 . Finally, at least in @entity1097 @entity1 complaining of @entity5377 , it is of importance to search for a food component. Dramatic clinical improvements can result from the introduction of an adequate exclusion diet.
