Oral Immunotherapy for Multiple Foods in a Pediatric Allergy Clinic Setting.
CONCLUSION: A similar approach to that used for peanut OIT can be taken for non-peanut foods, and for multiple foods simultaneously. High baseline allergy test results are not a contraindication to OIT. PMID: 31494236 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Allergen specificity of early peanut consumption and effect on development of allergic disease in the Learning Early About Peanut Allergy study cohort
Early introduction of dietary peanut in high-risk infants with severe eczema, egg allergy, or both prevented peanut allergy at 5  years of age in the Learning Early About Peanut Allergy (LEAP) study. The protective effect persisted after 12 months of avoiding peanuts in the 12-month extension of the LEAP study (LEAP-On). It is unclear whether this benefit is allergen and allergic disease specific.

The epidemiology of milk allergy in US children.
CONCLUSION: Childhood milk allergy, which accounts for one-fifth of US food allergies, is less prevalent among Asian and black children than white children. Although less than half of children with milk allergy received confirmatory testing, it is the most commonly diagnosed food allergy. PMID: 23622009 [PubMed - in process]

The effects of food allergy on quality of life.
Authors: DunnGalvin A, Dubois AE, Flokstra-de Blok BM, Hourihane JO Abstract The majority of research on food allergy has been bio-medical in orientation, focusing on issues such as the molecular structure of allergens, or aimed at methods of diagnosis. In the last decade, there has been a growing interest in the development of questionnaires that measure the impact of food allergy on health-related quality of life (HRQL). These studies have provided insight into the everyday burden of living with food allergy and have suggested ways that HRQL can be improved. The EuroPrevall project (europrevall@bbsrc.ac.uk) has g...

Prevalence of fish and shellfish allergy: A systematic review.
CONCLUSION: Few studies have established the prevalence of fish or shellfish allergy using the gold standard double-blind, placebo-controlled challenge criteria, with most instead relying on self-reported questionnaire-based methods. The limited data available suggest that fish allergy prevalence is similar worldwide; however, shellfish allergy prevalence may be higher in the Southeast Asia region.

Prevalence and natural history of tree nut allergy.
CONCLUSION: Tree nut allergy remains an understudied area of food allergy research with limited region specific studies based on robust food allergy measures in population cohorts with longitudinal follow up. This currently limits our understanding of tree nut allergy prognosis. PMID: 32044450 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

The prevalence and characteristics of food allergy in urban minority children.
CONCLUSION: This is the largest study of food allergy prevalence in an urban minority pediatric population, and 3.4% had physician-documented food allergy. Significantly more blacks were affected than children of other races. Fewer than half of food-allergic children in this population had confirmatory testing or evaluation by an allergy specialist.

Factors associated with reported food allergy tolerance among US children.
CONCLUSION: Multiple factors were associated with a report of outgrowing an allergy. Understanding factors associated with outgrowing an allergy can improve disease management and counseling. PMID: 23987195 [PubMed - in process]

The natural history and clinical predictors of egg allergy in the first 2 years of life: A prospective, population-based cohort study
Conclusion: Phenotyping of egg allergy (baked egg tolerant vs allergic) should be considered in the management of this allergy because it has prognostic implications and eases dietary restrictions. Randomized controlled trials for egg oral immunotherapy should consider stratifying at baseline by the baked egg subphenotype to account for the differential rate of tolerance development.

History of food allergy.
Authors: Wüthrich B Abstract In this chapter we will first consider whether there is real evidence on the basis of literature for early descriptions in antiquity of pathogenic reactions after food intake that could be comparable to allergy, for instance in the scriptures of Hippocrates or Lucretius. On this topic we are skeptical, which is in agreement with the medical historian Hans Schadewaldt. We also assert that it is unlikely that King Richard III was the first food-allergic individual in medical literature. Most probably it was not a well-planned poisoning ('allergy') with strawberries, but rather a birth de...

Evaluating a handbook for parents of children with food allergy: a randomized clinical trial.

Wheat allergy: diagnosis and management
Antonella Cianferoni Department of Pediatrics, Division of Allergy and Immunology, The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, PA, USA Abstract: Triticum aestivum (bread wheat) is the most widely grown crop worldwide. In genetically predisposed individuals, wheat can cause specific immune responses. A food allergy to wheat is characterized by T helper type 2 activation which can result in immunoglobulin E (IgE) and non-IgE mediated reactions. IgE mediated reactions are immediate, are characterized by the presence of wheat-specific IgE antibodies, and can be life-threatening. Non-IgE mediated reactions are characterized ...

Preliminary psychometric analyses and clinical performance of a caregiver self-efficacy scale for food allergy self-management.
CONCLUSION: We present preliminary evidence the FASEQ is a valid tool to assess caregiver food allergy self-efficacy. Self-efficacy is a distinct but related concept that captures aspects of self-management that are an important companion to health-related quality of life. PMID: 29273132 [PubMed - in process]

Oral allergy syndrome.
CONCLUSION: Patients with grass allergy may have a response to peaches, oranges, celery, tomatoes, and melons. Patients with ragweed allergy may show OAS symptoms with melon, cucumber, banana, and zucchini. Physicians should be aware of OAS and know the appropriate treatment.

Food Allergy in At- Risk Adolescents with Asthma: A Key Area for Focus.
CONCLUSION: Food allergy is common among this cohort of asthmatic adolescents. While food allergy was not related to asthma symptom severity, food allergic adolescents had higher FeNo and more activity limitation, and the majority did not have epinephrine auto-injectors. A history of food allergy and lack of epinephrine autoinjector may increase near fatal outcomes in adolescents with asthma. Preventive measures in addition to standard asthma treatments are warranted for these teens. PMID: 32534023 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
