National allergy programme had little impact on parent ‐reported food allergies in children aged 6‐7 years
ConclusionWe studied the national allergy programme that started in 2008 and found that there was a non‐significant overall decrease in the number of children aged 6‐7 on avoidance diets for allergies between 2009‐2016. The only allergies that showed signficiant decreases were fresh fruit and vegetables.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Stability of parent‐reported food allergy in six and seven‐year‐old children: the first five years of the Finnish allergy programme
ConclusionParent‐reported allergies to basic foods, such as cow's milk, eggs and wheat, remained rather stable in first‐graders of elementary schools during the first five years of the Finnish national allergy programme, but allergies to nuts, fruits and vegetables decreased.This article is protected by copyright.

Wheat oral immunotherapy was moderately successful but was associated with very frequent adverse events in children aged 6 ‐18 years
ConclusionThe majority (57%) of children with wheat allergies could use wheat in their daily diet 16 months after the initiation of oral immunotherapy, but 94/100 had adverse reactions and 60 were moderate or severe. Specific immunoglobulin E to omega‐5‐gliadin may provide a biomarker for how much wheat can be tolerated and the intensity of the reactions to immunotherapy.This article is protected by copyright.

Zinc beats the common cold
A study led by Dr. Harri Hemila of the University of Helsinki in Finland has found that lozenges containing high-dose zinc can shorten the length of the common cold by about 3 days. Previous research suggested that zinc lozenges help people with allergies to shorten their suffering with the common cold, but the new study indicates that people without allergies had the same benefits as those with allergies.

Allergy-Related Symptoms Are Poorly Predicted by IgE and Skin Prick Testing in Early Life
Conclusion: In early childhood, testing for IgE sensitization predicts allergy-related symptoms in an age-dependent manner, but not particularly well. Tests predict symptoms caused by aeroallergens clearly better than those caused by dietary allergens. The clinical relevance of sensitization testing in early life is therefore limited in the prediction of true allergy.Int Arch Allergy Immunol
