TI  - Bronchial asthma induced by rice.
PG  - 98-101
AB  - A 43-year-old patient with rice-induced bronchial asthma was first admitted to 
      our hospital for developing bronchial asthma induced by mite and house dust. At 
      that time, there was no sign of allergic response to rice. Two years later, he 
      was readmitted in an emergency state, with a severe attack of bronchial asthma. 
      This time, however, the result of immunoglobulin E (IgE)-radioallergosorbent test 
      (RAST) for rice was positive, with those to mite and house dust were unexpectedly 
      negative. The causative factors and pathological mechanisms of various kinds of 
      food allergies still remain unknown. The patient is now followed up in an 
      ambulatory setting, and has been eating hypoallergenic rice with no bronchial 
      asthma-induced attack. The present case, being an adult patient with severe 
      grain-induced bronchial asthma previously allergic to mite and house dust, seems 
      to be rather rare in the literature.
