Multiple sensitization phenomena and the relationship between allergens. (a) The positive rates of patients with different numbers of positive allergens. (b) A “dimensional reduction” analytical method was used for optimal scale analysis. Using the serum specific immunoglobulin E concentration of allergens as the continuous variable, the closer the two points, the higher the correlation between the two factors. (c) Spearman’s test was used to analyze the correlation between d1: Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus, d2: Dermatophagoides farinae, e1: cat dander, e5: dog dander, w6: Artemisia vulgaris, m3: Aspergillus fumigatus, i6: Blattella germanica, f1: egg whites, f2: milk, f4: wheat, f13: peanuts, f14: soybeans, f23: Cancer pagurus, and f24: Penaeus monodon. A darker color indicates a stronger correlation.
