CMA was diagnosed by skin test, serum specific IgE level and atopy patch test to milk in both patient and control groups.Results: Twenty- four children with GERD showed positive reaction to at least one of the diagnostic tests for CMA compared to 13 children in control group (OR=1.78; CI 95% 1.14 to 2.80). There was a significant difference in the result of patch test between the children with GERD and controls (OR=2.06; CI 95%, 1.46 to 2.91), but not in the skin test and the level of specific IgE to milk.
