Reaction phenotypes in IgE-mediated food allergy and anaphylaxis.
CONCLUSION: Data are emerging to confirm our clinical experience that many food-allergic patients experience stereotypical symptoms following allergen exposure, both in the community and at supervised oral food challenge, in a manner that varies from one patient to another. Integrating datasets from different cohorts and applying unbiased machine-learning analyses may demonstrate specific food allergy endotypes, in a similar way to asthma. Whether this results in improvements in patient management (e.g. through facilitating risk stratification or impacting on the decision to prescribe EAI and, perhaps, the number of device...

A randomized trial of subcutaneous allergy immunotherapy in inner-city asthmatic children < 4 years of age.
CONCLUSION: With the exception of asthma related quality of life, allergy immunotherapy was ineffective in improving asthma outcomes in this population of inner-city children < 4 years of age. These findings suggest that the effects of allergy immunotherapy depend on population specific factors and highlight the importance of precise predictors of immunotherapy efficacy.

The natural history of milk allergy in an observational cohort
Objective: There are few studies on the natural history of milk allergy. Most are single-site and not longitudinal, and these have not identified a means for early prediction of outcomes.Methods: Children aged 3 to 15 months were enrolled in an observational study with either (1) a convincing history of egg allergy, milk allergy, or both with a positive skin prick test (SPT) response to the trigger food and/or (2) moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD) and a positive SPT response to milk or egg. Children enrolled with a clinical history of milk allergy were followed longitudinally, and resolution was established by mean...

The natural history of egg allergy in an observational cohort
Background: There are few studies on the natural history of egg allergy, and most are single-site and nonlongitudinal and have not identified early predictors of outcomes.Objective: We sought to describe the natural course of egg allergy and to identify early prognostic markers.Methods: Children age 3 to 15 months were enrolled in a multicenter observational study with either (1) a convincing history of an immediate allergic reaction to egg, milk, or both with a positive skin prick test (SPT) response to the trigger food and/or (2) moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis and a positive SPT response to egg or milk. Children en...

Correlation between skin-prick testing, individual specific IgE tests, and a multiallergen IgE assay for allergy detection in patients with chronic rhinitis.
CONCLUSION: This study shows good agreement and correlation between SPT with individual specific IgE test and multiple allergen simultaneous test on a majority of the tested allergens for patients with chronic rhinitis. Comparing the two in vitro tests, individual specific IgE test agrees with SPT better than multiple allergen simultaneous test. PMID: 25198024 [PubMed - in process]

Clinical and Immunochemical Profiles of Food Challenge Proven or Anaphylactic Shrimp Allergy in the Tropical Singapore
ConclusionsThis study highlights the predominance of oral symptoms in shrimp allergy in tropical Asia and that a high provocation dose may be necessary to reveal shrimp allergy. Furthermore, specific IgE diagnostic tests and immunoblots were of limited use in this population.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Environmental pollution and allergy: historical aspects.
Authors: Behrendt H, Alessandrini F, Buters J, Krämer U, Koren H, Ring J Abstract It may be a coincidence, but it is a fact that the first clear characterization of hay fever began in England where modern industrialization started in Europe. Only at the end of the 20th century were associations of the increasing prevalence of allergy with outdoor air pollution discussed. The seminal study came from Japan from the group of T. Miyamoto linking the increase in Japanese cedar pollinosis to an increased prevalence of Diesel cars and probably exposure to Diesel exhaust in epidemiological, animal experimental and in vitr...

Profiles of IgE Sensitization to Der f 1, Der f 2, Der f 6, Der f 8, Der f 10, and Der f 20 in Korean House Dust Mite Allergy Patients.
CONCLUSIONS: Der f 2 was the most frequently sensitized allergen among the HDM-sensitized respiratory and AD patients in Korea, and the combination of the group 1 and 2 major allergens increased the diagnostic sensitivity. Minor allergens did not significantly improve diagnostic sensitivity. However, further studies are needed to analyze the relationship between sensitization to other HDM allergens and the disease entity of the HDM allergy.

Food for thought: progress in understanding the causes and mechanisms of food allergy
Purpose of review: The community burden of food allergy appears to be rising, yet the causes and mechanisms are not completely understood. The purpose of this review is to provide a snapshot of the state of play of IgE food allergies, with a focus on recent advances. Recent findings: There are still wide discrepancies regarding measures and definitions of food allergy. Even recent studies still rely on food sensitization, self-reporting, or parent-reporting rather than more robust measures. Population-based sampling strategies using objective measures are underway in some countries. Emerging data suggest substantial geogra...

Immunological Basis of Food Allergy (IgE-Mediated, Non-IgE-Mediated, and Tolerance).
Authors: Kim EH, Burks W Abstract Food allergy includes a number of diseases that present with adverse immunological reactions to foods and can be IgE-mediated, non-IgE-mediated, or a combination of both mechanisms. IgE-mediated food allergy involves immediate hypersensitivity through the action of mast cells, whereas non-IgE-mediated food allergy is most commonly cell-mediated. These food allergies are thought to occur as a result of a breakdown in oral tolerance and, more specifically, from an aberrant regulatory T-cell response. Ongoing studies of experimental treatments for food allergy strive to induce oral to...

High prevalence of Anisakis simplex hypersensitivity and allergy in Sicily, Italy.
CONCLUSION: A high prevalence of A simplex sensitization in a large proportion of patients with mono-sensitization was found, confirming that eating habits influence sensitization to this nematode. Allergic symptoms from A simplex ingestion in raw or marinated fish were quite frequent, with symptoms ranging from oral allergy syndrome to anaphylaxis. Patients sensitized to A simplex were more prone to have allergic symptoms when they had co-sensitization to house dust mites or molds, suggesting possible cross-reactive but clinically relevant allergens between these allergenic sources.

Stinging insect identification: Are the allergy specialists any better than their patients?
CONCLUSION: Overall, allergists are more skilled at Hymenoptera identification. Most allergy specialists reported testing for all stinging insects when evaluating insect hypersensitivity, and skin testing was the preferred testing method in nearly 70% of allergists. These data support the practice parameter's recommendation to consider testing for all flying Hymenoptera insects during venom evaluation, which most of the participating allergists surveyed incorporate into their clinical practice.

Climate Change and Air Pollution: Effects on Respiratory Allergy.
Authors: D'Amato G, Paw.ar R, Vitale C, Lanza M, Molino A, Stanziola A, Sanduzzi A, Vatrella A, D'Amato M Abstract A body of evidence suggests that major changes involving the atmosphere and the climate, including global warming induced by anthropogenic factors, have impact on the biosphere and human environment. Studies on the effects of climate change on respiratory allergy are still lacking and current knowledge is provided by epidemiological and experimental studies on the relationship between allergic respiratory diseases, asthma and environmental factors, such as meteorological variables, airborne allergens, ...

Sensitization to Food Additives in Patients with Allergy: A Study Based on Skin Test and Open Oral Challenge.
Abstract There has been a great increase in the consumption of various food additives in recent years. The purpose of this study was to identify the incidence of sensitization to food additives by using skin prick test in patients with allergy and to determine the concordance rate between positive skin tests and oral challenge in hypersensitivity to additives. This cross-sectional study included 125 (female 71, male 54) patients aged 2-76 years with allergy and 100 healthy individuals. Skin tests were performed in both patient and control groups with 25 fresh food additives. Among patients with allergy, 22.4% show...
