Oral challenge with specific allergens is generally used to diagnose allergic gastroenteropathy, but no evaluation criteria have yet been established. Therefore, we examined allergological tests (skin tests, IgE RAST score), oral challenge tests with causative allergens and oral administration tests using sorbitol as a nonspecific stimulator or distilled water as a control. Phonoenterograms were recorded intermittently for up to 5 hours after the tests and analyzed by a pulse density program. The results showed that it is possible to classify allergic gastroenteropathy into six subgroups by the allergological tests, symptoms and intestinal motility analyzed by phonoenterography. Increase of bowel sounds with or without positive allergological test and symptoms indicates a high suspicion of allergic gastroenteropathy. These data suggest that phonoenterography is useful in the diagnosis of this disease. It should also be possible to diagnose latent cases of allergic gastroenteropathy by non IgE-mediated allergic reactions.
