Journal ArticleDOI
Metal allergy in north Norwegian schoolchildren and its relationship with ear piercing and atopy.
TL;DR: The high frequency of nickel sensitivity in all children tested may indicate an influence of sources other than ear piercing, and girls with a combination of atopy and ear piercing showed the highest frequency of positive metal tests.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dermatitis herpetiformis and celiac disease are both primarily associated with the HLA-DQ (α1*0501, (β1*02) or the HLA-DQ (α1*03, (β1*0302) heterodimers
TL;DR: It is concluded that dermatitis herpetiformis and celiac disease are associated to the very same HLA-DQ alpha beta heterodimers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of UVB radiation on skin microbiota in patients with atopic dermatitis and healthy controls.
TL;DR: Staphylococcus aureus is widely colonised in the skin of atopic dermatitis patients, but is rare in healthy adults, and UVB treatment decreases the Staphyl bacteria count in patients with atopic Dermatitis.
