Twenty patients with Hashimoto thyroiditis (HT), who had never suffered from urticaria, represented the control group.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results:\u2002<\/jats:bold> At the start of the study, the prevalence of positive ASST was 46.6%. The association of HT\u2013urticaria was 29.3%. ASST was positive in 62 and 39% of patients with and without HT, respectively (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2003&gt;\u20030.05 ns). One year later, 28 of 34 patients with a positive ASST were symptom\u2010free, but 50% of them were positive for ASST. The ASST was positive in 86.7 and 8% of patients with and without HT, respectively (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2003&lt;\u20030.001). In the control group, ASST was always negative.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusions:\u2002<\/jats:bold> The co\u2010existence of autoimmune thyroiditis with chronic urticaria seems to induce a significant difference in the persistence of a positive ASST. Consistent with previous reports, a positive ASST correlates with disease exacerbation in chronic urticaria patients without thyroiditis. In patients with thyroiditis and urticaria, positive ASST persists even after the urticaria has disappeared, thus questioning whether a positive ASST to be a surrogate marker of the functional role of anti\u2010Fc<jats:italic>\u03b5<\/jats:italic>RI and anti\u2010IgE autoantibodies.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1398-9995.2005.00673.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,8,2]],"date-time":"2005-08-02T05:19:49Z","timestamp":1122959989000},"page":"256-258","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":54,"title":["The autologous serum skin test in the follow\u2010up of patients with chronic urticaria"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"60","author":[{"given":"A.","family":"Fusari","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"C.","family":"Colangelo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"F.","family":"Bonifazi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"L.","family":"Antonicelli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,1,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_8_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1398-9995.2003.00327.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1172\/JCI118325"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067\/mai.2001.115484"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2133.1986.tb04065.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0091-6749(89)90180-2"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-2133.1999.02707.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067\/mai.2003.15"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067\/mai.2003.1605"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_10_2","first-page":"342","article-title":"Successful treatment of chronic idiopathic urticaria associated with thyroid autoimmunity","volume":"10","author":"Gaig P","year":"2000","journal-title":"Invest Allergol Clin Immunol"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0091-6749(02)81491-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067\/mai.2000.108913"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067\/mai.2002.120954"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1172\/JCI511"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"3152","DOI":"10.4049\/jimmunol.155.6.3152","article-title":"Differential expression of complement receptors on human basophils and mast cells.
