2021, Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology: In PracticeCitation Excerpt :Serum tryptase level was increased in 1 of 413 patients with AVA (25%),3,6,10,13 but was negative in 2 of 2 patients with HVA.19 Serum histamine levels were increased in all 22 patients with VA investigated (4 patients with HVA5,19 and 18 patients with AVA9,15,16,26). Normal or negative results were reported from studies that performed the following blood tests: complete blood cell count,2,5,6,8,9,13,15,16,20,23 erythrocyte sedimentation rate,2,6,9,15,16 complement factor 3 level,2,8,9,15,20 complement factor 4 level,2,3,5,8,9,15,16,20,21 complement factor 1 esterase inhibitor level,2,3,5,8,16,20,21 serum IgE level,2,5,6,8,9,16 and antinuclear antibodies.9,16,20
Histaminergic Angioedema
2017, Immunology and Allergy Clinics of North AmericaCitation Excerpt :Its causes are similar to those producing dermographism, including sitting for prolonged periods of time, tight clothing, or carrying heavy bags. Vibratory angioedema is the development of pruritus with subsequent angioedema (usually without urticaria) after exposure to a vibratory stimulus.34,35 Triggers include mowing the lawn, bicycle riding, or jack-hammering.
