    Abstract:
    The aim of this study was to estimate the behaviour of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and immunoglobulin IgE level in children with coeliac disease (CD), food allergy (FA) and duodenal ulcer disease (UD). In total, 390 determinations of CEA (201 for CD, 27 for FA and 162 for UD) and 558-IgE (238, 136 and 184, respectively) were carried out during disease aggravations and remissions. The analysis of CEA mean values with respect to sex revealed no differences while IgE level in boys with UD was twice as high as in girls. No differences in CEA or IgE levels were found with respect to the season of the year. The IgE concentration increased during aggravations, but only in the case of UD was the difference statistically significant. CEA behaviour was similar (statistically significant differences for CD and very significant for UD). Both values, however, were normal.
