NCT01552161

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to estimate the prevalence of allergic diseases and atopy among patients with angiographically confirmed coronary artery disease as well as to assess levels of serum allergic inflammation markers in this population.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Prevalence of allergic diseases

    Asthma, allergic rhinitis, allergic concjunctivitis, atopic dermatitis, contact eczema, drug, food and insect venom allergy will be assessed through a structured questionnaire based on ISAAC and ECRHS questions regarding allergy symptoms. Additionally: Asthma diagnosis is verified through basic spirometry, reversibility test, skin prick tests and/or serum specific IgE. Allergic rhinitis diagnosis is verified through skin prick tests and/or serum specific IgE.

    Within a month from study recruitment completion.

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Serum tryptase

    Within a month from study recruitment completion.

  • Serum eosinophil cationic protein

    Within a month from study recruitment completion.

  • Prevalence of atopy.

    Within a month from study recruitment completion.

Study Arms (2)

Patients with negative coronarography.

Subjects who underwent coronary angiography and were classified as having no critical lesions in coronary arteries (a lesion of up to 50% of artery lumen is accepted as non-critical).

Patients with positive coronarography

Subjects who underwent coronary angiography and were classified as having critical lesions in coronary arteries (over 50% narrowing of artery lumen).
