Prescriptive appropriateness using inhalant and food allergen panels: a comparison between General Practitioners' and Allergists' prescription in Genoa (Italy).
Conclusions. This study underlines the relevance of prescriptive appropriateness in the allergy work-up. The sIgE assay should be limited to those allergens that have a clinical relevance, based on clinical history. PMID: 28294588 [PubMed - in process]

Medicinal bioactivites and allergenic properties of pumpkin seeds: review upon a pediatric food anaphylaxis case report.
We report here a case of food anaphylaxis to pumpkin seed in an eight-year-old boy, who tolerated all other edible seeds, peanut and tree nuts, as well as pulp of different kinds of pumpkins and other fruits of the Cucurbitaceae family. From this observation, a review of the botanical, historical, medicinal and allergenic aspects of pumpkin and its seeds is proposed. With the advent of diets rich in omega-3 and omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids, edible seeds like pumpkin seed have been incorporated in the modern diet. Their incremental use in the food-processing industry might contribute to an increase in food allergy to...

Food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome in children: what's known? What's new?
Authors: Petrosino MI, Scaparrotta A, Di Filippo P, Attanasi M, Di Pillo S, Chiarelli F, Mohn A Abstract Summary: Food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES) is an under-recognized and frequently misdiagnosed non-IgE mediated food allergy syndrome. Affected infants show gastrointestinal symptoms few hours after ingestion of the incriminating food. Pathophysiology of FPIES has not yet been clearly defined and needs further characterization. The common allergy tests are not helpful for this disorder and tests for food specific IgE are usually negative. A diagnostic oral food challenge (OFC) is the method to c...

Latex sensitization in patients with myelomeningocele: contribution of microarray technique.
Conclusion. Both methods are effective in assisting the diagnosis of latex allergy, but differ in the assessment of sensitized pediatric patients with myelomeningocele. The assessment of latex sensitized patients is more complete using the 8 recombinant latex fractions available for ImmunoCAP®, instead of I-ISAC®. PMID: 29479928 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Severe anaphylaxis to Propofol: first case of evidence of sensitization to soy oil.
We report a case of anaphylaxis to propofol in an adult patient without food allergy to soy, but with a latent sensitization to soy. An IgE-dependent allergy to propofol was established by a basophil activation test. Here, we document for the first time the existence of specific IgEs to a 65kDa protein, found in soybean oil and soy flour. In the absence of data on the reactogenic threshold for allergenic food proteins injected intravenously, a risk appears to be established and leads us to recommend a systematic detection for proteins in the refined soybean oil used in the pharmaceutical industry for intravenous products. ...

Allergen immunotherapy in polysensitized patient.
The objective we are facing is that in many patients tested as poly-reactive, we have to distinguish in which cases it is a true polysensitization, and when it is due to cross-reactivity of specific IgE antibodies induced by panallergens. This may really determine when AIT may be an appropriate course of action. The article focuses on this problem in more detail, applying the long time Czech and Slovak experience with allergy testing and allergen immunotherapy. PMID: 27152601 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE]

Bet v 1 sensitization modulates allergenic molecular 1 immune response.
Conclusions The present study demonstrates that Bet v 1 sensitization may significantly affect the sensitization pattern in children living in Genoa, a Mediterranean city located in a birch-free area. PMID: 30246512 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

The role of mobile apps in allergic respiratory diseases: an Italian multicentre survey report.
Authors: Lombardi C, Bonini M, Passalacqua G, Mobile Apps Multicenter Italian Study Group Abstract Summary: We performed a multicentre survey about the role of mobile apps in allergic respiratory diseases. The main objective was to investigate the current use and usefulness of mobile phone apps in the management of allergic respiratory disease. An original questionnaire including 12 multiple-choice questions was administered to 360 participants (153 male and 207 female subjects). Of notice, 290 subjects owned a smartphone, 120 a personal computer and 68 a tablet (multiple answers were possible). 123 subjects report...

Tree Nuts Anaphylaxis in Preschool Age Children.
Conclusions. In preschool age children with TNs-FIA, cashew and walnut were the commonest implicated nuts. Most reactions occurred briefly after exposure to minimal amounts of TNs, demonstrating the high potency of these allergens. About one-third also had peanut sensitization. Potentially life-threatening TNs allergy can occur early in childhood and adequate management should be undertaken. PMID: 31912691 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Subcutaneous and sublingual allergen-specific immunotherapy: a tale of two routes.
This article reviewed the available literature, including a large number of randomized controlled trials, meta-analyses, and real-life studies as well, on the outcomes of SCIT and SLIT concerning the treatment critical issues of the two routes, that are efficacy, safety, cost-effectiveness, and compliance to treatment. The efficacy of SCIT and SLIT is similar in respiratory allergy, providing, based on the induction of typical changes in the immunologic response, an early control of symptoms that steadily increases during the treatment and its efficacy lasts after the recommended duration of three years. Such results are t...

Primary care doctors' attitude towards drug allergy in Portugal. A questionnaire
Eur Ann Allergy Clin Immunol. 2021 May 13. doi: 10.23822/EurAnnACI.1764-1489.216. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA questionnaire was addressed to general practitioners (GP) from continental Portugal aiming to learn about their perception of drug allergy and identify their difficulties and educational needs for its management and 372 answers were obtained. As main culprit drugs antibiotics were identified by 65.3% and skin is the most involved organ for 65.8% of GP. Drug allergy was considered as very important in clinical practice by 73.7%, but difficulties in recognizing it were stated by 70.2%. Further education in this f...
