In particular, alterations in sweating mechanisms, the hydrolipid barrier, and surface bacterial flora, together with exposure to atmospheric conditions and the need to use medicaments, detergents, and other topical substances, predispose subjects to allergic contact dermatitis.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:italic>Objective<\/jats:italic>\u2014To evaluate the incidence of allergic contact dermatitis in a group of young people practising sports activities.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:italic>Methods<\/jats:italic>\u2014Patch tests were performed to confirm the diagnosis of irritant or allergic dermatitis; in addition, the radioallergoabsorbent test (RAST) to latex was evaluated in the group studied.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>\u2014Allergic contact dermatitis caused by thiourams (23.3%) and mercaptobenzothiazole (20.9%) was prevalent. Other haptens, such as benzocaine and nickel, which are contained in clothing, equipment, topical medicaments, and creams used for massage, were also allergenic. In two cases, RAST positivity to latex was registered.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:italic>Conclusions<\/jats:italic>\u2014The results suggest that close contact with sports equipment may increase the incidence of allergic contact dermatitis.
