Fig. 1 Bivariate correlation between bronchial responsiveness to allergen (PD20allergen) and nonspecific bronchial hyperresponsiveness (PC20histamine) (A), specific IgE directed to MA (IgE anti-MA) (B), and thresholds for positive response in skin tests (ICT-threshold [C] and SPT-threshold [D]) and BHRA (BHRA-threshold [E]). PD20allergen, ICT-threshold, SPT-threshold, and BHRA-threshold are corrected for difference in biologic activity between Der p 1 and Der p 2 (see text for details).
