Childhood blood eosinophils and symptoms of allergic disorders: a cross-sectional study in Southern China
CONCLUSION: Higher eosinophil counts were associated with the increased risk of allergic subtype symptoms and the decreased risk of non-allergic subtypes in children. Moreover, the associations between eosinophils and allergic asthma/rhinitis were accentuated in the school-aged child. These findings may contribute to providing novel insights for clinical administration relevance of allergic-related symptoms.Key messages:There was a positively nonlinear association between childhood eosinophils and allergic asthma/rhinitis.Age modified the associations between eosinophils and allergy-related outcomes. The associations of eo...

The correlation between middle schoolchildren allergic symptoms and airborne particle season: A cross-sectional study
This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the seasonality of symptoms of allergic diseases among middle schoolchildren and the annual variation of airborne pollen and fungal spore in a hot and humid geographical region (Qatar). During November 2017 to January 2018, a self-reported study of middle schoolchildren living in the Doha capital city of Qatar was conducted, and data gathered were evaluated in relation to the collected monthly pollen and fungal spores. Participants’ data were collected by conducting a survey based on a modified questionnaire adopted from the International Study of Asthma and All...

Pollen Sensitization in Association with Allergic Rhinitis in preschool asthmatic Children
ConclusionIt is concluded from our results that sensitization to timothy grass pollen (TGP) is common in allergic rhinitis. The findings are limited by the sample size and consecutive manner of sampling. Wider scale studies are needed to accurately evaluate the frequency of timothy grass pollen (TGP) sensitization in our country.

The most prevalent allergenic airborne pollens among Egyptian patients with respiratory allergy
ConclusionDifference in results of SPT performed to patients across different countries is explained by the difference in climates, which affects pollination, Egypt is considered to have a dry, desert-like climate in addition to its coastal regions. Our results revealed that both timothy grass and maize pollens were the most prevalent among Egyptian respiratory allergy patients.

Ethnicity-Based Disparities in Immune-Mediated Diseases —Time for Action!
Immune-mediated conditions, particularly allergic diseases (ADs) including allergic rhinitis, asthma, food allergy, and atopic dermatitis, are among the most common noncommunicable diseases in high-income countries (HICs) with racially, ethnically, and culturally diverse populations such as the United Kingdom, the United States, and Australia. Disease burden within HICs varies significantly by race and ethnicity, and this variability has prompted global attention toward disparities in health outcomes and management.

Differences in gut microbiota between allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis, and skin urticaria: A pilot study
Conclusion. Our results demonstrated high intra-group homogeneous and high inter-group heterogeneous microbiota. The clinical symptoms of eczema, hives, and rhinitis can all be linked to specific microbiota in the current study. In this pilot study, the Ruminococcaceae and Bacteroidales species are associated with allergic disease, in line with several previous published articles, and the abundance of Firmicutes Phylum is representative of intestinal dysbiosis. In the future, a larger cohort and thorough biochemical studies are needed for confirmation.

ARIA 2019 Care pathways for allergic rhinitis in Kuwait health care system
This article presents the specificity of heath care system in Kuwait in regards to management of AR, with the intention to introduce proposed ICP and adopt latest ARIA recommendations. Guidelines for ICP includes views of patients and healthcare providers and covers key areas of allergic rhinitis management. This model of guidelines support real life health care better than traditional mod-els. Aiming at improving both pharmacotherapy and allergy immunotherapy (AIT), ARIA recommendations will be locally integrated in the health care system.

Collagenous colitis in a child induced by chronic respiratory allergy: A case report
Conclusion: CC in children is rare, and childhood CC induced by a respiratory allergic reaction has not been previously reported. Therefore, this is a special case of CC in a patient who was cured with anti-allergy treatments and desensitization instead of steroid therapy.

A Systemic Review on the Prevalence of Atopic Diseases in Children in the Arabian Peninsula
Conclusions: The reported overall rates of atopic disease in countries of the Arabian Peninsula are comparable with those reported in other industrialized countries. This is probably related to the good economic status in the region which is reflected in the living standards and lifestyle. Further, genetic factors, such as factors related to gene polymorphism, and the high rate of consanguinity in the region may contribute to the higher prevalence of atopic diseases.

Comparison of Specific Immunoglobulin E with the Skin Prick Test in the Diagnosis of House Dust Mites and Cockroach Sensitization in Patients with Asthma and/or Allergic Rhinitis.
CONCLUSION: serum specific IgE testing to common inhalant allergen in patients with respiratory allergy showed only low-to-moderate sensitivity, but high specificity and PPV. This new assay can be used to diagnose allergen sensitization in the population with high prevalence of TDR and cockroach. PMID: 29950531 [PubMed - in process]
