Migrants and allergy: a new view of the atopic march.
Authors: Biagioni B, Vitiello G, Bormioli S, Tarrini D, Lombardi C, Rossi O, Parronchi P Abstract Summary: Atopy is the result of the influence of environmental factors on genetically predisposed individuals. Migration flows represent an interesting model to study the possible reciprocal roles of genes and environment. In this review the following issues influencing the development of allergic sensitization and/or atopic disorders in migrants will be rooted out: 1) ethnicity, genetic polymorphisms and risk of atopy; 2) double faceted effects of parasitic infestations; 3) biodiversity loss and industrial progress. M...

Blood or skin: what is best in predicting cow's milk allergy diagnosis?
This study is a retrospective analysis of consecutive children (0-18 years-old) with suspected CMA tested with SPT and sIgE for cow's milk (CM) and its fractions between 2016-2017. CMA diagnosis was defined by a positive oral food challenge or a highly suggestive clinical history of CMA and SPT and/or sIgE positive to CM and/or its fractions. One hundred and five patients were included, 58% males with a median age of 2.5 (P25-P75:1-6) years and the diagnosis was confirmed in 83 patients (79%). The variables associated with CMA diagnosis were SPT with CM (p minor 0,05) and casein (p minor 0,05) and all sIgE to CM and its fr...

Healthcare costs associated with allergic rhinitis, asthma allergy immunotherapy.
This study estimated healthcare costs and utilisation for patients with AR and asthma. Mean annual outpatient visits, pharmaceutical costs and inpatient hospitalisations were calculated for 2010 and 2014, with pharmaceutical and inpatient costs stratified by AIT use. AR and asthma patients had a 35% higher mean number of physician visits and up to 90% higher mean pharmaceutical costs compared to controls. The cost of pharmaceuticals and inpatient hospitalisations were 54% lower in those prescribed AIT. Further research is recommended to understand the reasons for these cost differences.

Comparison of the Performance of Skin Prick and ISAC Tests in the Diagnosis of Allergy.
Authors: Scala E, Villalta D, Meneguzzi G, Brusca I, Cecchi L Abstract Summary: The recent European Union and Italian regulations in the matter of in vivo test could strongly impact on current diagnostic approach, increasing the usage of in vitro tests in daily clinical practice. We evaluated 506 patients with both skin prick test and a microarray system (ImmunoCAP ISAC 112). The overall evaluation between ImmunoCAP® ISAC vs SPT showed a moderate agreement (k=0.509, 95% C.I. 0.480-0.540, SE: 0.016) considering both aeroallergens and food allergens. When we considered the concordant results (double-positive plus do...

New risks from ancient food dyes: cochineal red allergy.
This study reports an unusual case of IgE-mediated hypersensitivity to Cochineal red or Carmine red, a coloring agent of natural origin. Although the risk of anaphylactic reactions is well known, since the nineties the use of this additive seems to be nowadays on the rise. The problem of labeling of additives used in handmade food products is highlighted. PMID: 25398168 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE]

Subtypes of chronic urticaria in patients attending allergy clinics in Venezuela.
Authors: Sánchez-Borges M, Caballero-Fonseca F, Capriles-Hulett A Abstract Chronic urticaria (CU) is one of the most puzzling clinical entities confronted by the medical profession. It is a common motive for consultation, and in a sizable proportion of patients no identifiable cause is evident. Since there are relatively few publications regarding CU in developing countries, we performed a prospective 3-year study on the demographic and clinical features of patients with CU. Four hundred and twenty-three subjects were studied, 52 children and 371 adults, 295 females (69.7%), with a mean age of 38.4 ± 17.8 years. ...

Allergen immunotherapy: clinical and practical education of Italian trainees in allergy and clinical immunology schools.
Authors: Ridolo E, Incorvaia C, Senna GE, Montagni M, Olivieri E, Canonica GW Abstract We performed a survey, based on a questionnaire including 20 items, submitted anonymously to Italian trainees in Allergology and Clinical Immunology, in order to obtain information about their specific allergen immunotherapy (AIT) practices. The questionnaire was sent to 40 trainees, who had attended the last two years of the training course. Thirty-four subjects (mean age: 27 years, 65% females) adequately completed the survey. The answers to the questionnaire showed that only 60% of the training programs included lectures on AI...
