Safety of direct oral provocation test to delabel reported mild beta-lactam allergy in infants
CONCLUSIONS: A direct DPT without prior tests is a safe and effective procedure to delabel BL allergy, even in infants. The authors wish to emphasize the importance of properly validating BL allergy suspicions by promoting appropriate diagnostic procedures in infants as, in most cases, DHRs can be excluded and there is no need for further therapeutic restrictions.PMID:38459885 | DOI:10.15586/aei.v52i2.887 (Source: Allergologia et Immunopathologia)

Cold-induced anaphylaxis triggered by drinking cold water
We report the case of an 11-year-old boy previously diagnosed with chronic spontaneous urticaria who developed facial swelling, itchy hives, difficulty in breathing, vomiting and abdominal pain within 5 minutes of drinking cold water. He received a standard dose of non-sedating second-generation antihistamines at home. He was observed in the emergency room for 2 hours and discharged with an epinephrin autoinjector. During the subsequent outpatient clinic visit, an ice cube test was performed which confirmed the new diagnosis of comorbid cold-induced chronic urticaria. On further questioning, the parents reported occurrence...

Hepatitis B virus and cytomegalovirus coinfection in an older patient: a case report
J Int Med Res. 2024 Mar;52(3):3000605241232547. doi: 10.1177/03000605241232547.ABSTRACTCytomegalovirus (CMV) infection involving the skin is relatively rare. We herein report a case involving a man in his late 70s with positive hepatitis B surface antigen who presented with multiform skin lesions, including a papuloid rash, papular urticaria, and purpura. The patient had taken no antiviral drugs for nearly 13 years but had recently developed severe liver injury. Laboratory examination revealed positive CMV immunoglobulin M, CMV polymerase chain reaction result of 1.09 × 102 copies/mL, and a slightly decreased CD4+ cell co...
