Dose response relationship of allergen, histamine, and histamine releasers in skin prick test and precision of the skin prick test method.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The beta-lactam allergic work-up is mostly standardized. However, the negative predictive value of drug provocation tests is not yet well established. METHOD:A historical-prospective multicentre cohort study was conducted in four centres (one in France, one in Portugal, two in Italy) to assess the negative ...
