Allergic diseases, which have a certain stage in their development from food allergy to bronchial asthma / allergic rhinitis, are much more common in children than in adults. The aim of this study was to analyze data on the prevalence and incidence of atopic dermatitis, bronchial asthma and allergic rhinitis as components of the allergic march, in children of Ukraine from 1994 to 2017 to determine the possible impact of adverse environmental factors on their development. During the same period, due to the influence of a number of factors, in particular environmental, there were significant changes in the structure of allergic diseases making up the stages of the allergic march due to an increase in the proportion of allergic rhinitis with the reduced one of asthma and atopic dermatitis. Within 24 years, the incidence of atopic dermatitis in children aged 0-6 years including, increased by 27.6%, in adolescents - by 40.5% and significantly decreased by 39.5% in children aged 7-14 years including. Most cases of allergic rhinitis and bronchial asthma were observed in schoolchildren (47.6 and 54.0%, respectively) with a slight decrease compared to 1994. In general, allergic diseases in recent years have become more common in children from 0 to 6 years and their detection has decreased in school-age children and adolescents. Over the past 24 years, in children of Ukraine a steady increase in the incidence and prevalence of allergic diseases that form an allergic march has been noted: the prevalence of bronchial asthma has increased by 69.3% and the incidence has increased by 22.9%; the prevalence of atopic dermatitis increased by 43.9% and the incidence increased by 8.3%; the prevalence of allergic rhinitis increased by 488.3% and the incidence of allergic rhinitis increased by 380.3%, with a predominance of detection of this pathology in children from regions with developed infrastructure and industry, where there are significant emissions of pollutants into the atmosphere, that have a direct moderate effect on the increase in the prevalence of bronchial asthma, the incidence and prevalence of allergic rhinitis in children.

Over the past decades, the first breakthrough milestone in the treatment of severe forms of atopic dermatitis (AD) has been targeted therapy aimed at inhibiting IL-4 and IL-13. This was made possible thanks to advances in the understanding of the pathogenesis of AD, the driver of which is the Th2-type immune response, which also underlies such manifestations of atopy as bronchial asthma, allergic rhinitis, and polynosis. In the case of the Th2-type immune response, cytokines IL-4 and IL-13 are secreted, which are the main promoters of the inflammatory response in AD. Inhibition of IL-4 and IL-13 leads to the prevention of inflammation and is an effective approach to therapy. The use of therapy aimed at inhibition of cytokines allows you to effectively cope with the manifestations of severe and moderately severe blood pressure.

The aim: To study the dynamics of the level of 25(ОН)D, ІL-4, ІL-10, and IgG in the blood serum of children with allergic diseases and to study the clinical effect of vitamin D3 administration n different dosage in this category of patients. Materials and methods: 153 children aged 3-16 with such allergic diseases as bronchial asthma, atopic dermatitis and allergic rhinitis have been examined. The level of 25(ОН) D was determined using the electrochemiluminescence method, while the levels of ІL-4, ІL-10 and IgG were assessed using enzyme-linked immunoassay. Results: In the contrasting of the initial level of 25(ОН)D in the blood serum of patients after administration of 2,000 IU of vitamin D3 over 2 months, after summer and after treatment with cholecalciferol in higher doses (4,000–5,000 IU) over 2 months, significant difference was established between the indicators by the Friedman criterion (λ2 = 41.211; P < 0.05). In the similar contrasting of ІL-4 indicators, a significant difference between them was traced (P < 0.05) in the period of acute disease as well as the downward tendency in the period of remission. In the similar contrasting of ІL-10 indicators, a significant difference between them was traced (P < 0.05) in the acute period and in the period of disease remission. In the similar contrasting of IgG indicators, a downward tendency was traced in the period of acute disease and significant decrease (P < 0.05) – in the period of disease remission. In the contrasting of 25(ОН)D and ІL-4, ІL-10 figures a strong reverse correlation relationship was traced. The therapeutic effect of the administration of vitamin D3 medication in different doses in children with allergic diseases was traced. Conclusions: The data obtained shows that in the treatment of children with bronchial asthma, allergic rhinitis and atopic dermatitis the complex therapy should include vitamin D3 medications in different doses within a long-term course of treatment.

The data on the frequency of revealing the bronchial permeability disorders are presented and the mechanisms of its development in children with atopic dermatitis not having clinically bronchoobstructive syndrome in anamnesis are studied. In children with atopic dermatitis the main risk factors of the bronchial asthma development are shown and the possibilities of revealing its early preclinical signs are determined. It is significant in prevention of the bronchial asthma development in timely performance of specific preventive measures.

Allergy, is a clinical expression of soluble factors like IgE, histamine or eosinophils found in serum or plasma of such patients. The products that are responsible for allergy are called as Allergens. Allergens normally induce IgE production which leads to type 1 hypersensitivity response on subsequent exposure to the same allergen. The target organs are mostly nose, lung, skin and gastrointestinal tract. Atopy is also considered as a triad of Atopic dermatitis, allergic rhinitis and bronchial asthma. Raised serum IgE and AEC are proven indicators of allergic phenomenon. Various studies show relationship between serum Immunoglobulin E level and total eosinophil count in population suffering from allergic diseases. Serum total Immunoglobulin E, total eosinophil count and specific IgE are all helpful for the diagnosis and treatment of allergic diseases. Objectives: 1.To Evaluate Serum Total IgE level in Children with allergic diseases.2. To Evaluate Absolute Eosinophil Count (AEC) in children with allergic diseases.3. To Correlate Serum Total Immunoglobulin E Level and Absolute Eosinophil Count (AEC) with allergic diseases. Methodology: Cross sectional study with 100 children in the age group 2-12 years with nasopharyngeal allergies (like bronchial asthma and atopic rhinitis) and skin allergies (like atopic dermatitis, urticaria) ,eye allergies were enrolled and serum IgE levels and AEC levels was done. Results: In present study Absolute eosinophil count was raised in 58% of cases Serum IgE was raised in 54% of cases. In present study, of 58% cases with raised Absolute eosinophil count 81% (47 cases) showed raised serum IgE levels. Conclusion: Absolute eosinophil count and serum Total IgE has been considered as a significant marker of allergic state and can be used as a marker of allergic response in atopic individuals. Raised serum IgE and AEC are more in nasobronchial allergy as compare to other systemic allergies. The elevated level of serum Total IgE and Absolute Eosinophil Count both shows Significant Correlation thus can be considered as a dependable laboratory investigation in diagnosing and categorizing allergic diseases.
