The role of secretary-motor stomach disorders in the genesis of atopic dermatitis in children
Objective: to study the relationship of the main mediators of atopy and clinical and morphological characteristics lesions of the stomach with its secretory-motor disorders in children with atopic dermatitis. We study 134 patients aged 7 to 14 years with atopic dermatitis and 30 healthy children as control group. All children passed general clinical and laboratory instrumental investigations. In addition, children with manifestations of atopic dermatitis and secretory-motor disorders of the stomach Fibroesophagogastroduodenoscopy, topographic intragastric pH-metry with aspiration biopsy of the gastric mucosa were performed, followed by morphological investigations. In sick children, an increase in the levels of total IgE, histamine and serotonin was detected in the blood, combined with a tendency to decrease acid-forming function, endoscopic and morphological changes in the gastric mucosa. It is assumed that concomitant atopic dermatitis secretory-motor disorders of the stomach are manifestations of gastrointestinal syndrome, which can be both secondary and primary in relation to skin manifestations and in both situations contribute the formation of endoallergens and maintain a vicious cycle of the pathological process.
