Maternal hookworm modifies risk factors for childhood eczema: results from a birth cohort in Uganda
ConclusionsMaternal hookworm modifies effects of known risk factors for eczema. Mechanisms by which early‐life worm exposures influence allergy need investigation. Worms or worm products, and intervention during pregnancy have potential for primary prevention of allergy.

Washing Dishes By Hand Could Protect Kids From Allergies
BOSTON (CBS) – Dr. Mallika Marshall reports on two big allergy headlines that could help protect your children from developing allergies in the first place.
More and more children are suffering from allergies and one environmental factor may contribute. It’s called the hygiene hypothesis and proposes that because we live in such a sterile environment with antibacterial products, the overuse of antibiotics, and limiting our children’s exposure to dirt and germs, their immune systems overreact when kids eventually encounter these things. Two new studies support this theory.
Pregnant women and parents of young chil...

Allergic diseases and asthma in pregnancy, a secondary publication
In conclusion, i) allergies in pregnancy should preferentially be diagnosed in vitro; ii) AIT may be continued, but not started, and symptomatic medications must be carefully selected; iii) management of asthma and allergic diseases is important during pregnancy for welfare of mother and child.

The influence of dietary immunomodulatory factors on development of food allergy in children.
Authors: Sardecka I, Krogulska A, Toporowska-Kowalska E
Abstract
In the last few years many studies have been conducted on the role of dietary and environmental factors in the prevention of allergic diseases among children. Many studies have shown that the diet of pregnant women and children in their early postnatal life, rich in antioxidants, vitamin D, and fatty acids is beneficial as it reduces the risk of allergy in their future life. Moreover, there are many reports about the main role of gut microbiota and probiotics in the allergy prevention, what can indicate new ways of procedures in allergic diseases.

Prenatal maternal psychosocial stress and offspring's asthma and allergic disease: a systematic review and meta ‐analysis
ConclusionsExposure to prenatal maternal psychosocial stress was associated with increased risk, albeit modestly, of asthma and allergy in the offspring. The pronounced risk during the third trimester may represent cumulative stress exposure throughout pregnancy rather than trimester‐specific effect. Our findings may represent a causal effect or a result of inherent biases in studies, particularly residual confounding.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

HealthWatch: Mom ’ s Diet Could Affect Child ’ s Risk Of Allergy, Eczema
BOSTON (CBS) – In one of the largest reports of its kind, researchers in London find that a mom’s diet can affect her baby’s risk of allergies.
Researchers from Imperial College London analyzed more than 400 studies involving 1.5 million people and found that when moms took fish oil supplements during late pregnancy, and while breastfeeding, their children had a 30% lower risk of having an egg allergy at age 1, and when moms took probiotics, there was a 22% lower risk of their children developing eczema.
Fish oil supplements helps reduce the chance of a mother’s baby cy getting a food allergy if tak...

Women's Wellness: Allergy medications and pregnancy
Allergy medications are sometimes recommended during pregnancy. However, before you take an allergy medication, consider ways to reduce your symptoms, including: Avoiding triggers.?Limit your exposure to anything that triggers your allergy symptoms. Saline nasal spray.?Over-the-counter saline nasal spray can help ease symptoms. Use the spray as needed. Nasal irrigation.?Once a day or as needed, fill [...]

Maternal levels of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) during pregnancy and childhood allergy and asthma related outcomes and infections in the Norwegian Mother and Child (MoBa) cohort.
We examined the association of PFASs measured in pregnancy with childhood asthma, allergies and common infectious diseases in a prospective pregnancy cohort followed to age 7 years.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: Six PFASs (out of 19 measured) with at least 80% of measurements above the limit of quantification (LOQ) in maternal plasma during pregnancy in two subcohorts of the Norwegian Mother and Child Cohort Study (MoBa) were analyzed in relation to health outcomes: perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS), acid (PFOA), perfluorohexane sulfonic acid (PFHxS), perfluorononanoic acid (PFNA), perfluoroundecanoic acid (PFUnDA), and ...

The role of antimicrobial treatment during pregnancy on the neonatal gut microbiome and the development of atopy, asthma, allergy and obesity in childhood.
Authors: Milliken S, Allen RM, Lamont RF
Abstract
INTRODUCTION: The use of antibiotics prenatally, during pregnancy, or neonatally may have adverse effects on the neonatal gut microbiome, and adversely affect the development of the infant immune system, leading to the development of childhood atopy, asthma, allergy and obesity. Areas covered: We reviewed new evidence about vaginal eubiosis and dysbiosis from molecular-based, cultivation-independent techniques, and how this affects the neonatal gut microbiome and early development of the immune system in infants. We have considered the association between maternal u...

It ’s Not Mom’s Fault
Thus far, the most effective strategy for the prevention of food allergy is early introduction of allergenic solids to at-risk infants. Early skin moisturization may have a role in food allergy prevention. There is insufficient evidence for hydrolyzed formula as a means of allergy prevention. Studies on vitamin D, omega 3, and probiotic supplementation; breastfeeding; early infant dietary diversity; and maternal peanut ingestion during pregnancy and breastfeeding are inconsistent.

Influences of Maternal Factors Over Offspring Allergies and the Application for Food Allergy
The prevalence of food allergy has been steadily rising worldwide with the highest incidence noted among younger children, and increasingly recognized as a growing public concern. Allergic reactions to foods often occur on the first known ingestion, suggesting that exposure of offspring to food allergens may occur in utero and/or through breast milk. This creates a milieu that shapes the neonatal immune response to these allergens. However, the effects of maternal allergen exposure and maternal sensitization with allergens on development of allergies in offspring remain controversial. This review discusses recent advances ...

Active free secretory component and secretory IgA in human milk: do maternal vaccination, allergy, infection, mode of delivery, nutrition and active lifestyle change their concentrations?
CONCLUSION: This study suggests that active free SC is more impacted by maternal factors than active SIgA in human milk.
IMPACT: Active free secretory component (free SC) is more impacted by maternal factors than active secretory IgA (SIgA) in human milk.Vaccination during pregnancy, allergy, nutrition, type of delivery and active lifestyle affect the secretion of free SC in human milk, but not SIgA secretion.Free SC in human milk is a critical constituent of secretory IgA (SIgA) for immune exclusion against pathogens and its active concentration in milk strongly varies between mothers, partially due to their specific...
