CRP, C-reactive protein; FPIES, food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome; TARC, thymus and activation-regulated chemokine; WBC, white blood cell count gl Table S2 shows the results when the control group was divided into infectious gastroenteritis and sepsis patients and compared with FPIES patients. Nonetheless, there was a significant difference in the TARC levels between patients with FPIES and the controls, indicating that TARC level elevation is specific to FPIES. Patients with cow's milk FPIES or chronic FPIES were excluded. Since there were no test items that reflect FPIES severity, we expect that the TARC value after vomiting may be used as an objective evaluation item for FPIES severity. [Extracted from the article]
