Analysis of biological potency and chemical consistency of Ethyl Acetate Purified FAHF-2 for treatment of food allergy
Food allergy have increased significantly worldwide. Immunoglobulin E (IgE) mediated food allergy is especially prevalent in the United States. We previously demonstrated safety and preclinical efficacy of Food allergy herbal Formula-2 (FAHF-2) however further refinement is needed for clinical use. We evaluated biological potency and chemical consistency of Ethyl Acetate purified Food Allergy Herbal Formula-2 (E-B-FAHF-2, compared with butanol and water extracts FAHF-2.

Current state of occupational latex allergy
Purpose of review During the 1980s, natural rubber latex (NRL) emerged as a major cause of occupational allergy and asthma, especially in healthcare workers using powdered NRL gloves. Increased recognition of NRL allergies and transfer of research findings into prevention strategies resulted into an almost elimination of this health problem. Here, the current knowledge on allergens, their use in diagnostics, prevalence data of occupational NRL allergy and the status of prevention strategy are summarized. Recent findings While the current studies conducted in high-income countries show that prevention measures have red...

Effects of allergen sensitization on response to therapy in children with eosinophilic esophagitis.
CONCLUSION: Perennial allergen and mold sensitization may lead to nonresponse to EoE treatment in some patients. Additional studies are needed to further understand the effect of environmental allergens on EoE. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01779154.

Drug Allergy Assessments in Older Adults: A Multi-Site Prospective Study from the United States Drug Allergy Registry
Older adults have an increased risk of adverse drug reactions and are more likely to suffer adverse effects associated with alternative antibiotic use. Although antibiotic allergy reporting increases with age and medical complexity, the epidemiology and outcomes of older adults receiving drug allergy assessment are unknown.

Perception and practice of sublingual immunotherapy among practicing allergists in the United States: a follow-up survey.
CONCLUSION: Rates of SLIT use reported by US respondents have nearly doubled in the last 4 years, with 11.4% of US respondents reporting SLIT use. Because the greatest barrier to SLIT use in the United States is the lack of FDA approval, it is anticipated that once an FDA-approved product is available, there will be widespread use of SLIT in the United States. Practice guidelines, which include effective dosages and schedules, will be critical to the broad implementation of SLIT in the United States. PMID: 23548531 [PubMed - in process]

Temporal Trends in Epinephrine Dispensing and Allergy/Immunology Follow-up Among Emergency Department Anaphylaxis Patients in the United States, 2005-2014
Conclusions Over the past decade, rates of EAI dispensing and A/I follow-up after an ED visit for anaphylaxis have remained low, suggesting that patients may not be prepared to manage future episodes.

Food allergen extracts to diagnose food-induced allergic diseases: How they are made.
CONCLUSION: The manufacture of food allergen extracts requires many considerations to achieve the maximal quality of the final product. Allergen extracts for a select number of foods may be inconsistent between manufacturers or unreliable in a clinical setting, indicating a potential area for future improvement.

Evaluation of periprocedural hypersensitivity reactions.
CONCLUSION: Induction agents were the most common causative agents in our patients, which differs from other studies. Given the variability in evaluations of periprocedural HSRs across the United States with data published on small sample sizes, there is a need to establish national guidelines to standardize evaluations and to create a national registry to allow for data sharing.

Multicenter prevalence of anaphylaxis in clinic-based oral food challenges.
CONCLUSION: As the largest national survey of allergic reactions of clinical open OFCs in a nonresearch setting in the United States, this study found that performing clinical nonresearch open low-risk OFCs results in few allergic reactions, with 86% of challenges resulting in no reactions and 98% without anaphylaxis.

Changes in emergency department concordance with guidelines for the management of stinging insect-induced anaphylaxis: 1999-2001 versus 2013-2015.
CONCLUSION: Over the nearly 15-year study interval, we observed increased ED concordance with epinephrine-related guideline recommendations for the management of SIIA. Reasons for the decline in allergy/immunology referrals merit further study. PMID: 29407420 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

The role of environmental exposure to peanut and the development of peanut allergy
Peanut affects around 2% of children in developed countries and is the leading cause of food-related anaphylactic deaths in the United States and United Kingdom. Peanut allergy is rarely outgrown and, although peanut desensitization has been shown to increase the threshold of reactivity to peanut, the evidence for oral tolerance induction remains elusive. The Learning Early About Peanut (LEAP) study showed that high-dose regular peanut consumption from 4 to 11 months of age up until 5 years of age was highly effective in preventing peanut allergy in high-risk children.
