Prevalence of confirmed IgE‐mediated food allergy among adolescents in Turkey
ConclusionThe prevalence of food allergy among adolescent age group has been confirmed to be comparatively low in Turkey. Peanuts and treenuts were determined to be the most common causes of IgE‐mediated food allergy.

Epidemiological link between wheat allergy and exposure to hydrolyzed wheat protein in facial soap
ConclusionsAn epidemiological relationship between wheat allergy and contact exposure to HWP has been documented. This study implicates a possible role of contact exposure to food‐derived protein hydrolysates as a risk factor for the development of food allergy manifesting itself as anaphylaxis.This article is protected by copyright.

Food allergy in south african children with atopic dermatitis
ConclusionThe prevalence of food allergy is unexpectedly high in South African children with AD, and comparable with food allergy rates in AD patients in developed countries. There are ethnic differences, with significantly lower peanut allergy rates in Blacks compared to mixed race patients. These results are not generalizable to an unselected South African population, which requires further study.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Use of a basophil activation test as a complementary diagnostic tool in the diagnosis of severe peanut allergy in adults
Conclusions BAT is useful in determining the severity of peanut allergy and may be used as a complementary diagnostic tool to ensure accurate diagnosis of severe peanut allergy in adults. Thus, it may reduce the need to subject these patients to further tests, including an open challenge with peanuts.

The Prevalence of Tree Nut Allergy: A Systematic Review
Abstract Tree nuts are one of the most common foods causing acute allergic reactions and nearly all tree nuts have been associated with fatal allergic reactions. Despite their clinical importance, tree nut allergy epidemiology remains understudied and the prevalence of tree nut allergy in different regions of the world has not yet been well characterised. We aimed to systematically review the population prevalence of tree nut allergy in children and adults. We searched three electronic databases (OVID MEDLINE, EMBASE and PubMed) from January 1996 to December 2014. Eligible studies were categorised by age, region ...

Consensus communication on early peanut introduction and the prevention of peanut allergy in high-risk infants
The purpose of this brief communication is to highlight emerging evidence to existing guidelines regarding potential benefits of supporting early, rather than delayed, peanut introduction during the period of complementary food introduction in infants. This document should be considered as interim guidance based on consensus among the following organizations: American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology; American Academy of Pediatrics; American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology; Australasian Society of Clinical Immunology and Allergy; Canadian Society of Allergy and Clinical Immunology; European Academy of Allerg...

Epidemiology of food allergy and food-induced anaphylaxis: is there really a Western world epidemic?
Purpose of review: Food-induced anaphylaxis continues to be an important cause of hospital admissions, particularly in children. This review outlines recent advances in understanding the epidemiology of IgE-mediated food allergy and potential mechanisms for its rise in prevalence. Recent findings: The rise in food allergy prevalence in Western countries has happened more quickly than changes to the genome can occur; thus, environmental changes are likely to be important. Recent studies, however, suggest that genetic risk determines responses to environmental risk factors. Environmental peanut exposure has been associated w...

Parental self‐efficacy in managing food allergy and mental health predicts food allergy related quality of life
ConclusionsParental self‐efficacy in management of a child's food allergy is important and is associated with better parental QoL. It would be useful to measure self‐efficacy at visits to allergy clinic in order to focus support; interventions to improve self‐efficacy in parents of food allergic children should be explored.This article is protected by copyright.

Health Economic Analysis of Allergen Immunotherapy (AIT) for the Management of Allergic Rhinitis, Asthma, Food Allergy and Venom Allergy: A Systematic Overview
ConclusionsOverall the evidence to support the cost‐effectiveness of AIT is limited and of low methodological quality, but suggests that AIT may be cost‐effective for people with allergic rhinitis with or without asthma and in high risk subgroups for venom allergy. We were unable to draw any conclusions on the cost‐effectiveness of AIT for food allergy.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Fecal Microbiome and Food Allergy in Pediatric Atopic Dermatitis: A Cross-Sectional Pilot Study
Conclusions: In this pilot study, we identified a microbial signature in children with AD that discriminates between the absence and presence of food allergy. Future studies are needed to confirm our findings.Int Arch Allergy Immunol

Dog and Cat Allergies and Allergen Avoidance Measures in Korean Adult Pet Owners Who Participated in a Pet Exhibition.
CONCLUSIONS: Cat owners with a cat allergy tried to minimize contact with their cats, but efforts to avoid indoor cat allergens were lower than those without. In comparison, dog owners with a dog allergy had kept their dogs for longer time than those without; however, current contact with their dogs and allergen avoidance measures did not differ between the 2 groups.
