Abstract
Elevated serum IgE concentrations, including levels greater than 1,000 IU/mL, are common among Alaskan native children; positive RAST reactions to aeroallergens are not. The IgE levels do not relate to wheezing, eczema, a history of allergies, or past hospitalization for RSV infection but likely reflect infections other than RSV and environmental factors in subarctic indigenous populations.
