Mitral valve prolapse associated with celiac artery stenosis: a new ultrasonographic syndrome?
CAS and MVP seem to be significantly associated in patients undergoing consecutive ultrasonographic screening.
SS patients had specific IgE to both environmental and food allergens. IgE+ SS patients had a significant lower survival rate. High levels of CD60-CD49+CD4+ T cells associated with an IgE- phenotype allow the identification of a restricted group of long survivor SS patients. Therefore, specific measurement of IgE seems to be useful in discriminating survival.
