dc.description.abstract |
In the present study, the serum immunoglobulin profiles of vitiligo patients were compared with that of cohort
control and evaluated the correlation between immunoglobulin level with their socioeconomic factors and
nutritional status. Thirty vitiligo patients were recruited randomly from the Department of Dermatology and
Venereology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh for this study.
Thirty healthy individuals as control group matched by age, sex, education and socioeconomic factors to the
patient group were selected. Serum immunoglobulin concentrations were determined by turbidimetry method
using immunoglobulin kit. The concentration of IgG and IgA decreased significantly (P<0.05), but the change
of IgM was not significant. Socioeconomic data revealed that most of the patients were young and female.
Moreover statistical analysis revealed that there was significant correlation between immunoglobulin (IgG and
IgA only) concentrations and BMI and number of depigmented patches with IgG concentrations. Finally it can
be concluded that the change of serum immunoglobulin concentration in vitiligo patients could be due to the
disease condition as pathomechanism suggested the aberrations in cellular immunity. But study with larger
number of population is required for further evaluation of the relationship between the immune response and
disease state to confirm these findings. |
