assalamualaikum,

setahu kaklia la kalu salah tlg btlkan allergi ni dapat dikenalpasti melalui ujian2 makmal yg dilakukan. Antaranya patch test,photo patch test.prick test dan ujian total igE.
So daripada test ni kita boleh tahu kulit kita allergik kepada apa bahan.Setahu kaklia test2 ni kat swasta mahaiii tapi kat kerajaan murah jek.Cuma bila kita dah tahu apa bahan yang kita allergi tu kita kena hindarkanlah bahan itu.rasanya itu saja caranya.
Patch test ni kita boleh wat gak kat kosmetik yg kita guna,ubatan dan mcm2 la yg kita rasa badan kita allergik pada ?.harap korang paham la seposen ye keterangan seposen akak ni.....

What is autoimmunity?


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One of the functions of the immune system is to protect the body by responding to invading microorganisms, such as viruses or bacteria, by producing antibodies or sensitized lymphocytes (types of white blood cells). Under normal conditions, an immune response cannot be triggered against the cells of one's own body. In certain cases, however, immune cells make a mistake and attack the very cells that they are meant to protect. This can lead to a variety of autoimmune diseases. They encompass a broad category of related diseases in which the person's immune system attacks his or her own tissue.

What causes autoimmunity?


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The immune system normally can distinguish "self" from "non-self." Some lymphocytes are capable of reacting against self, resulting in an autoimmune reaction. Ordinarily these lymphocytes are suppressed. Autoimmunity occurs naturally in everyone to some degree; and in most people, it does not result in diseases. Autoimmune diseases occur when there is some interruption of the usual control process, allowing lymphocytes to avoid suppression, or when there is an alteration in some body tissue so that it is no longer recognized as "self" and is thus attacked. The exact mechanisms causing these changes are not completely understood; but bacteria, viruses, toxins, and some drugs may play a role in triggering an autoimmune process in someone who already has a genetic (inherited) predisposition to develop such a disorder. It is theorized that the inflammation initiated by these agents, toxic or infectious, somehow provokes in the body a "sensitization" (autoimmune reaction) in the involved tissues.


What are the types of autoimmunity?


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Particular autoimmune disorders are frequently classified into organ-specific disorders and non-organ-specific types. Autoimmune processes can have various results, for example, slow destruction of a specific type of cells or tissue, stimulation of an organ into excessive growth, or interference in its function. Organs and tissues frequently affected include the endocrine gland, such as thyroid, pancreas, and adrenal glands; components of the blood, such as red blood cells; and the connective tissues, skin, muscles, and joints. Some autoimmune diseases fall between the two types. Patients may experience several organ-specific diseases at the same time. There is, however little overlap between the two ends of the spectrum.

In organ-specific disorders, the autoimmune process is directed mostly against one organ. Examples, with the organ affected, include Hashimoto's thyroiditis (thyroid gland), pernicious anemia (stomach), Addison's disease (adrenal glands), and type 1 diabetes (pancreas).

In non-organ-specific disorders, autoimmune activity is widely spread throughout the body. Examples include rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE or lupus), and dermatomyositis.


What are some of the treatments for autoimmune diseases?


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Of first importance in treating any autoimmune disease is the correction of any major deficiencies. An example would be replacing hormones that are not being produced by the gland, such as thyroxin in autoimmune thyroid disease or insulin in type 1 diabetes. In autoimmune blood disorders, treatment may involve replacing components of the blood by transfusion.

Second in importance is the diminishing of the activity of the immune system. This necessitates a delicate balance, controlling the disorder while maintaining the body's ability to fight disease in general. The drugs most commonly used are corticosteroid drugs. More severe disorders can be treated with other more powerful immunosuppressant drugs, such as methotrexate, cyclophosphamide, and azathioprine. All of these drugs, however, can damage rapidly dividing tissues, such as the bone marrow, and so are used with caution. Intravenous immunoglobulin therapy is used in the treatment of various autoimmune diseases to reduce circulating immune complexes. Some mild forms of rheumatic autoimmune diseases are treated by relieving the symptoms with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications. Drugs that act more specifically on the immune system, for example, by blocking a particular hypersensitivity reaction, are being researched.



What is the family connection in autoimmune diseases?


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The ability to develop an autoimmune disease is determined by a dominant genetic trait that is very common (20 percent of the population) that may present in families as different autoimmune diseases within the same family. The genetic predisposition alone does not cause the development of autoimmune diseases. It seems that other factors need to be present as well in order to initiate the disease process. It is important for families with members who have an autoimmune disease to mention this fact when another member of the family is experiencing medical problems that appear to be difficult to diagnose.

iman,dimana titik tolak persamaan isu autoimune ni?

Mmg saya ada promote Tf kat thread sebelah..adakah I dah lakukan si thread ni?
Iman nak kan perkongsian ilmu  tapi sikap awak tak mencerminkan mahukan perkongsian itu...

Ada promoter Sne promote dgn link sekali....awak dah sound? kalo i promote Tf disini pasti awak dah pangkah!so dimana  pertimbangan  keterbukaaan perkongsian ilmu?

Reply 54# anuar

anuar,

actually what are you saying? i was referring to your statement pada iman kasih stating that allergic is autoimmune (or as you mentioned, mild autoimmune) because setahu i patophysiology of allergic is not due to autoimmune, but it is inter related. Now you're talking about gastrik & autoimmune jugak, so what is your point?

that is why i ask if it is lab based ke tidak, because if it is, then it will be a whole lot other story.

contoh, in my hospital, when we do ward rounds, and patients perlukan antibiotik (abx) for a certain indicationor diagnosis, the ward round will involve the primer team, infectious disease specialist, pharmacist and microbiologist. Microbiologist most of the time will just refer on C&S culture that they have from the lab, but other professionals will look into clinical symptoms as well. meaning, the lab result might say drug A does not work for this patient, but if patient's clinical symptoms eg white cell count, temperature, ESR, CRP shows improvement, wound gets better etc, they will stick to the same drug & dont change it although the lab result (or microbiologists) says otherwise.

as you sendiri mention, to refer to 1 book is bias, because to come with a statement, it should be a collective consensus among the expert panels.

anyway, thank you for the info on the book. As you mentioned in your PM, the book is RM1000 (you kata murahkan). Of course, murahlah tu sebab medical text books are wayyyyyy more expensive.

i have consulted a few of my colleagues, but i have yet to consult my Professor in immunology yet (she's busy, banyak attend meetings & what not), but so far none of them can relate that allergic is caused by autoimmune.

personally, and this is just my opinion, (everyone is entitiled to their opinion, so you can backlash me afterwards), but i honestly dont think the way you ask iman kasih was because you really wanna know or share the knowledge, but its more of because you want to show that you can out-smart her...and this is just my opinion, your niat (of proving youmight be right but your WAY of doing it, a big question mark.

if you are a professional in medical background, then maybe we can talk the same language, not necessarily the same wavelength, but if this thread is gonna be used to show how brilliant someone else's is and others are not, then i'm walking away...

okay dude, the floor is yours  !
