2020, Journal of Microbiology, Immunology and InfectionCitation Excerpt :Studies have indicated that 30–60% of patients with CSU has an autoimmune etiology on the basis of various laboratory and clinical evidence.2–7,10,13,15–17 The prevalence of thyroid autoimmunity in patients with CU was previously reported as 12–30%.16,17 In our study, 31 (24.8%) of 125 CSU patients exhibited a positive response to one or both of the anti-thyroglobulin and anti-microsomal antibodies.
Urticaria: A comprehensive review: Treatment of chronic urticaria, special populations, and disease outcomes
2018, Journal of the American Academy of DermatologyCitation Excerpt :Patients with a neutrophilic infiltrate responded best when treated with dapsone (5 times greater odds of control) than cyclosporine and other immunosuppresants.120,155 Patients with thyroid autoantibodies, which make up 20% to 30% of the CU population,156-158 had a 3 times greater odds of control with fgAH or sgAH than LTRA or H2 antagonists.120 Amin et al120 also found that the best overall control of CU was achieved when using a sgAH plus LTRA and that white patients were up to 7 times more likely to have a favorable response to LTRA or doxepin.
Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria: The Devil's Itch
2018, Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology: In PracticeCitation Excerpt :We do not test for helicobacter pylori; the evidence of an association is weak considering the prevalence of infection in the population-at-large. There is clearly an association of antithyroid antibodies (antithyroglobulin and antiperoxidase) with CSU94,95 and some patients may be hypothyroid or even present taking thyroid hormone for prior hypothyroidism. Thus, ordering a thyroid-stimulating hormone and antithyroid antibodies may indicate a predilection for autoimmunity.
