Implementation of the NIAID Peanut Allergy Guidelines: Outcomes and Experience
The publication of the Learning Early About Peanut Allergy (LEAP) study in 2015 represented a paradigm shift in the field of food allergy with the finding of an 81% reduction in the incidence of peanut allergy when early introduction of peanut was compared to strict avoidance in high risk infants.1 In 2017, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID) provided official recommendations for early peanut introduction with the publication of the Addendum Guidelines to the 2010 Guidelines for Diagnosis and Management of Food Allergy in the United States.

Racial/Ethnic Differences in Food Allergy
Immunoglobulin E –mediated food allergy is an increasingly prevalent public health concern globally. In North America, particularly in the United States, racial and ethnic differences in food allergy prevalence and rates of sensitization have become apparent. Black and Hispanic children in the United States have b een estimated to have the highest rates of food allergy. Beyond rates of prevalence, food allergy outcomes, such as health care utilization, psychosocial outcomes, and economic burden, also vary considerably by race and ethnicity. It is important to consider socioeconomic status in conjunction with race and eth...

Textbook of Allergy for the Clinician, Second Edition
This is the second edition of a general allergy textbook, written by an international group of authors from the United States, Singapore, India, and the United Kingdom and sponsored by the International Asthma Services as part of their continued educational outreach. There are 35 chapters that detail a broad allergy and immunology curriculum, including taking the allergy history, rhinolaryngoscopy, multiple areas of integrative medicine, and how these can be incorporated into the practice of allergy and immunology, and a unique chapter highlighting the differences in the practice of allergy between Eastern and Western cultures.

The Economic Burden of Food Allergy: What We Know and What We Need to Learn
AbstractPurpose of ReviewFood allergy management and treatment require dietary modification, are associated with significant burdens, and affect food choices and behaviours. Emerging therapies, such as oral immunotherapy (OIT), provide a glimmer of hope for those living with the condition. Some burdens have received substantial focus, whereas many knowledge gaps on the significance of other impacts, including economic burden, remain.Recent FindingsEvidence from many countries, but disproportionately from the United States, supports that food allergy carries significant healthcare and societal costs. Early introduction for ...

Delabeling Penicillin Allergy in a Pediatric Primary Care Clinic
Reported adverse drug reactions to penicillins are common, affecting between 10-20% of the North American population; however, more than 90% of patients with a penicillin allergy label can safely tolerate penicillins 1, 2. Numerous adverse outcomes are associated with labeled penicillin allergy 1, 2. In light of this, appropriate diagnosis and verification of a penicillin allergy label is crucial to achieving optimal health outcomes and has been recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the American College of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology, and the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology 3.

Allergic contact dermatitis in preservatives: current standing and future options
Purpose of review: Preservatives are well known skin sensitizers and represent one of the main causes of contact allergy. The purpose of this article is to review the current state of contact sensitization induced by preservatives and point future alternatives for products’ preservation.
Recent findings: Isothiazolinones currently are the most common preservatives responsible of contact allergy in Europe and in the United States, and although some regulatory interventions have been taken place, the current contact allergy outbreak is not yet under control. Despite the ban of methyldibromo glutaronitrile from cosmetics i...

Complementary and Alternative Medicine for Treatment of Food Allergy
The prevalence of food allergy is increasing. Food allergy can be life threatening and there is no approved treatment available. Allergen avoidance and rescue medication remain the sole management tools. Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) use is common in the United States. However, research into safety and efficacy for food allergy is limited. Continued scientific research into food allergy herbal formula 2 (FAHF-2), refined methods of formulation, purified compounds, and other modalities are needed. Traditional Chinese medicine is the main component of CAM in the United States. Conventional doctors, CAM practit...

The importance of reducing risk in peanut allergy: Current and future therapies
The prevalence of peanut allergy has steadily increased during the past 10 years, especially in children. A 2009 to 2010 survey of more than 40,000 children (aged 0 –17 years) in the United States found that peanut allergy was the most common food allergy, affecting 2% (1.5 million) of children nationwide.1 Data from a 2014 meta-analysis of 29 studies from multiple European countries using various reporting methods estimated the occurrence of peanut allergy t o be 0.3% (by positive food challenge result) to 4.1% (by peanut specific IgE positivity) in children aged 2 to 5 years and 0.4% (by self-reporting) to 9.8% (by pea...

Implementation of the new NIAID Peanut Allergy Guidelines: Outcomes and Experience
The “Learning Early About Peanut” (LEAP) study changed clinical allergy practice by demonstrating that early consumption of peanut-containing food by infants who are at high-risk for developing peanut allergy greatly reduces the subsequent development of clinical allergy. In January 2017, the NIAID published the Addendum Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Management of Food Allergy in the United States, which provides specific, risk-stratified recommendations for the introduction of peanut into infants’ diets.

Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DRESS) Syndrome Identified in the Electronic Health Record Allergy Module
ConclusionsUsing free-text search of the EHR allergy module identified a large US DRESS syndrome cohort. DRESS prevalence was 2.18 per 100,000 patients. Both liver and kidney injury were frequent, and vancomycin was the most common drug culprit. DRESS cases were morbid and resource-intensive.

Prevalence and Evaluation of Shellfish Allergy in a Large Urban Hospital System
Shellfish allergy is one of the most common food allergies self-reported in adults. It is estimated to be 60% of seafood allergy in the United States. However, prevalence of physician diagnosed shellfish allergy is unknown. The aim was to characterize the prevalence of shellfish allergy in our population.

Patterns of North American Women Authorship in Two Allergy/Immunology Journals: 1997-2017
ConclusionsWomen authorship has become more frequent in JACI and Annals. 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.
