Health Disparities in Pediatric Food Allergy
CONCLUSION: Racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic disparities in food allergy among children in the United States are evident and negatively affect the outcomes of children with food allergies. Active efforts to decrease racial and socioeconomic disparities through education, research, and advocacy will be important to help improve health outcomes in food allergy for all children, regardless of their race, ethnicity, or socioeconomic status.PMID:35476967 | DOI:10.1016/j.anai.2022.04.022

Epidemiology of Food Allergy
Understanding the epidemiology of food allergy is complicated by the difficulty of identifying it on a large scale. The prevalence of food allergy is higher in younger age groups and decreases with age. Allergy to peanut and egg seems to be more common in Northern Europe, the United States, Canada and Australia compared with Southern Europe, Eastern Europe and Asia, whereas shellfish and fish allergies may be more common in Asia. The rate of transient unrecognized food allergy may be high and variable recognition of food allergy may explain some of the differences seen in food allergy prevalence.

Food Allergy
Immunology and Allergy Clinics of North America last published an issue dedicated to the subject of food allergy following the release of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Management of Food Allergy in the United States in 2012. Since 2012, some aspects of our field remain unchanged. We continue to perceive a rising incidence of food allergy, an absence of an FDA-approved therapy for treatment of food allergy, and a growing recognition of other food-induced allergic diseases such as eosinophilic esophagitis and food protein –induced enterocolitis syndrome.

Global perspectives on food allergy
The prevalence of childhood food allergy has increassed sharply during the past 2 decades. Up to 8% of children in the United States and 11% of Australian infants are food allergic, and the prevalence of peanut allergy is between 1% and 3% in these countries.1 Allergy research has shifted its focus in recent years toward measures aimed at the primary prevention of food allergy in children, such as through dietary interventions in early life. The Learning Early About Peanut Allergy (LEAP) randomized clinical trial enrolled 640 high-risk infants between the ages of 4 and 11 months in the United Kingdom who had severe atopic ...

Food allergy guidance in the United States Military: A work group report from the AAAAI Military Allergy and Immunology Assembly (MAIA)
A diagnosis of food allergy adversely impacts one ’s ability to join or remain in the military. Inadequate knowledge or misconceptions of current military-specific standards regarding food allergy and how these apply to enlistment, induction, and retention in the United States military can potentially lead to inaccurate counseling as each militar y service has specific regulations which impact the evaluation and decision-making process. Recognizing this knowledge gap, the American Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology (AAAAI) Military Allergy and Immunology Assembly (MAIA) established a Work Group who reviewed and summarized a...

Preventing Peanut Allergy: Where Are We Now?
Publication date: February 2019Source: The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology: In Practice, Volume 7, Issue 2Author(s): Helen R. Fisher, Corinne A. Keet, Gideon Lack, George du ToitPeanut allergy affects 1% to 3% of the Western world, usually begins in early childhood, is rarely outgrown, and has no currently approved treatment. The identification and application of prevention strategies is therefore essential. In 2015, the Learning Early About Peanuts study findings found that early consumption of peanut protein was effective in preventing peanut allergy in high-risk children as compared with peanut avoidance. The...

Patterns of North American Women Authorship in 2 Allergy/Immunology Journals: 1997-2017
ConclusionsWomen authorship has become more frequent in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology and Annals of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology. The probability of women being first authors is more likely in articles with women as last authors, implying that mentorship of women by women may encourage women to become more active in scholarship.
