Peripheral Blood Eosinophilia

In 138 newborns with toxic (allergic) erythema, the mediation of allergic reactions by social factors was established. On the 2nd day of life, an allergically altered reactivity is clinically manifested, which is also expressed by an altered picture of peripheral blood (eosinophilia, lymphocytosis) and indicators of the enzymatic activity of leukocytes.

Aim: to optimize the diagnosis of toxocariasis based on the analysis of epidemiological, clinical and laboratory data in children with the infestation. Patients and Methods: the analysis of official statistical data for the period of 2014–2018, literature sources, a retrospective analysis of 57 medical records of patients (40 children and 17 adults) who received treatment and diagnostic in the clinic of the Rostov Research Institute of Microbiology and Parasitology of the Federal Service for Surveillance on Consumer Rights Protection and Human Wellbeing in 2015–2018 was conducted. Results: a decrease in the incidence of newly diagnosed infestation cases was revealed (registered in the clinic of the Rostov Research Institute of Microbiology and Parasitology of the Federal Service for Surveillance on Consumer Rights Protection and Human Wellbeing). It correlated with official statistics (r=0.9, p=0.05). Based on clinical and laboratory examination, the diagnosis was established in 26 patients (45.6%). Among patients with a verified diagnosis of toxocariasis, the proportion of children aged 1 years and 1 months to 10 years old, was 96%. An analysis of epidemiological data showed that 76% of children had close contact with the soil. The infestation occurred in the form of latent toxocariasis in 36% of patients. In more than half of the cases, the disease was clinically manifested by geophagy (56.0%). A permanent laboratory parameter was the eosinophilic leukemoid reaction in patients with toxocariasis. Peripheral blood eosinophilia ranged from 15.66.2±9.31% in latent toxocariasis to 25.5±15.0 % in visceral toxocariasis. The positive rate in ELISA with Toxocara antigen was higher than that in the group of patients with visceral toxocariasis. However, there was no correlation between the eosinophilia level and positive rate (r=0.1, p=0.05). Conclusion: in areas where the incidence of toxocariasis and environmental contamination with invasive helminth eggs are high, it is advisable to perform tests of the peripheral blood in children at least one time per year in the autumn for timely diagnosis of infestation. The use of ELISA with Toxocara antigen is reasonable in the cases of peripheral blood eosinophilia.

Peripheral Blood Eosinophilia

<p>Tropical pulmonary eosinophilia (TPE) is characterized by lung tissue and peripheral blood eosinophilia. Serum total IgE is also markedly increased in TPE. However, an association with asthma or other hypersensitivity conditions has not been described. During the diagnostic workup of three patients eventually confirmed to have TPE, hypersensitivity to the fungus, <em>Aspergillus Fumigatus </em>was found. However, there was no evidence of diseases of aspergillus hypersensitivity such as severe asthma with fungal sensitization (SAFS) and allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA). This association however raises the possibility of a future risk of these potentially serious allergic respiratory manifestations.</p><p><strong>Riassunto</strong></p><p>L’eosinofilia polmonare tropicale (TPE) è caratterizzata da tessuto polmonare e eosinofilia nel sangue periferico. Anche il siero IgE totale è notevolmente aumentato in TPE. Tuttavia, un’associazione con asma o altre condizioni di ipersensibilità non è stata descritta. Durante l'iter diagnostico di tre pazienti, che alla fine si sono rivelati presentare TPE, ipersensibilità al fungo, è stato trovato l’<em>Aspergillus fumigatus</em>. Tuttavia, non vi era alcuna evidenza di malattie di <em>Aspergillus</em> ipersensibilità come l'asma grave con sensibilizzazione fungina (SAF) e aspergillosi broncopolmonare allergica (ABPA). Questa associazione pone tuttavia la possibilità di un rischio futuro di queste potenzialmente gravi manifestazioni allergiche respiratorie.</p>
