Other diseases such as gastroschisis\/omphalocoele and post\u2010haemorrhagic\/congenital hydrocephalus are also associated with repeated and early latex exposure.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Objective\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/jats:bold> The aim of the study was to evaluate whether the high prevalence of latex sensitization in patients with SB is rather related to the underlying disease itself than to disease\u2010associated known risk factors.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Methods\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/jats:bold> We compared children with SB (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>=35), children with gastroschisis\/omphalocoele (G\/O, <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>=20) and children with post\u2010haemorrhagic\/congenital hydrocephalus (PH, <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>=45). All children with SB and PH had a ventriculo\u2010peritoneal shunt since a very young age. Patients who underwent three or less surgical procedures matched in terms of age, number of operations, atopy and gender distribution, and were analysed for IgE sensitization rates to latex.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/jats:bold> In the SB group, 16 of 35 patients (46%) showed elevated latex\u2010specific IgE antibodies in contrast to one of 20 patients (5%) in the G\/O group and four of 45 patients (8.9%) in the PH group (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.0005 and <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.005, Fisher's exact test). Comparing matched control groups (3 operations), the effects remained significant (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.05 and <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.01).<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusion\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/jats:bold> This study suggests that the SB population bears a disease\u2010associated propensity for latex sensitization. This effect cannot be explained exclusively by a higher number of operations and differences related to atopy, age or gender.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2222.2006.02564.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,10,2]],"date-time":"2006-10-02T14:33:17Z","timestamp":1159799597000},"page":"1242-1246","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Early exposure to latex products mediates latex sensitization in spina bifida but not in other diseases with comparable latex exposure rates"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"36","author":[{"given":"T.","family":"Eiwegger","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"E.","family":"Dehlink","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J.","family":"Schwindt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"G.","family":"Pomberger","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"N.","family":"Reider","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"E.","family":"Frigo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"A.
