#sensitivity.susceptibility__predisposition susceptibility to a pathogen
supertype: susceptibility__susceptibleness__susceptiblenes the state of being susceptible; easily affected
subtype: habitus__habitu person's predisposition to be affected by something (as a disease); "the consumptive habitus"
subtype: sensitization__sensitisation the state of being sensitive (as to an antigen)
subtype: hypersensitivity.sensitivity pathological sensitivity
subtype: cryesthesia hypersensitivity to cold
subtype: hypersensitivity_reaction an inappropriate and excessive reaction to an allergen (as pollen or dust or animal hair or certain foods); severity ranges from mild allergy to severe systemic reactions leading to anaphylactic shock
subtype: urtication__urticaria__hives__nettle_rash an itchy skin eruption characterized by weals with pale interiors and well-defined red margins; usually the result of an allergic response to insect bites or food or drugs
subtype: allergy__allergic_reaction hypersensitivity reaction to a particular allergen; symptoms can vary greatly in intensity
subtype: food_allergy allergic reaction to a substance ingested in food
subtype: immediate_allergy__immediateallergy__atopy__atopicallergy__typeiallergicreaction an allergic reaction that becomes apparent in a sensitized person only minutes after contact
subtype: serum_sickness__serum_disease a delayed allergic reaction to the injection of an antiserum caused by an antibody reaction to an antigen in the donor serum
subtype: delayed_allergy__type_IV_allergic_reaction an allergic reaction that becomes apparent only hours after contact
subtype: anaphylaxis__anaphylaxi hypersensitivity reaction to the ingestion or injection of a substance (a protein or drug) resulting from prior contact with a substance
subtype: anaphylactic_shock a severe and rapid and sometimes fatal hypersensitivity reaction to a substance (especially a vaccine or penicillin or shellfish or insect venom) to which the organism has become sensitized by previous exposure
subtype: allergic_rhinitis rhinitis caused by an allergic reaction
subtype: hay_fever__hayfever__pollinosis a seasonal rhinitis resulting from an allergic reaction to pollen
subtype: diathesis__diathesi constitutional predisposition to a particular disease or abnormality
