Nickel allergy following European Union regulation in Denmark, Germany, Italy and the U.K.
ConclusionsThere has been a reduction in the prevalence of nickel allergy in young women, contemporaneous with the introduction of the nickel regulation. A reduction is also suggested in men in Germany and the U.K. A causative effect of the regulatory intervention is the most likely explanation.

Allergen recognition patterns in walnut allergy are age dependent and correlate with the severity of allergic reactions
ConclusionSensitization to walnut storage proteins is acquired in childhood and correlates with severe reactions. sIgE levels to storage proteins Jug_r_1, Jug_r_4 and vicilin fractions, but not to nsLTP and PR-10 proteins, correlate with systemic reactions to walnut.

Food Allergy Detection Device Could Remove Danger Of Dining Out
BOSTON (CBS) – Clare Maloney-Kolenberg is high school junior from Winchester who is looking forward to traveling to Spain on an exchange program with her Spanish class. But that excitement is coupled with a bit of anxiety due to her food allergies. “I’m allergic to tree nuts, peanuts and sesame,” she told WBZ-TV. It’s a list that can make dining out a bit dicey, even in familiar restaurants near home.  But once you add unfamiliar foods and a language barrier, that increases the odds of a reaction. That’s exactly what happened when Clare ordered ice cream on a trip to Germany with her family. “All of a s...

The long-term effectiveness of allergy immunotherapy in subjects with asthma is associated with a lower prevalence of sleep disturbances. Results from the REACT-study
Respiratory allergy often affects the upper and lower airways as allergic rhinitis (AR) and asthma, with a negative impact on sleep. Allergy immunotherapy (AIT), particularly for house dust mite (HDM) allergy, has proven to be an effective treatment in asthma, but long-term data for AIT in asthma and sleep are sparse. The real-world effectiveness of AIT (REACT)-study was a large, retrospective German cohort study (2007-2017) with up to 9 years of follow-up. AIT was associated with long-term improved asthma control, reduced risk of asthma exacerbations and hospitalisations in patients with AR and pre-existing asthma (Fritzs...

Comparison of allergy immunotherapy medication persistence with a sublingual immunotherapy tablet versus subcutaneous immunotherapy in Germany
Medication persistence and adherence in allergy immunotherapy (AIT) has been reported to be lower in real life than in clinical studies,1 with manufacturers' sales figures often indicating poorer adherence and persistence than postmarketing studies.2,3 This might result from patients tending to be more compliant when their behavior is being recorded, which is commonly known as the Hawthorne effect.

Component resolved analysis of ash pollen allergy in Bavaria
Sensitization to ash pollen is underestimated in various regions. The prevalence in Germany is about 10%. However, allergy to ash pollen is widely overlooked by allergists, since the pollination period of ash ...

Adaptation and Validation of the Korean Version of the Urticaria Control Test and Its Correlation With Salivary Cortisone.
CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated that the K-UCT can be a valid instrument with which to gauge CU control status in Korean patients. Further studies are needed to validate salivary cortisone as a biomarker for CU control. PMID: 30479077 [PubMed]

Protease-Activated Receptors 2-Antagonist Suppresses Asthma by Inhibiting Reactive Oxygen Species-Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin Inflammation and Epithelial Tight Junction Degradation.
CONCLUSIONS: ROS generation and epidermal tight junction degradation are triggered by protease, followed by the induction of TSLP in allergic asthma. Our findings could suggest that PAR2-ant or anti-oxidants could be considered for allergic diseases as preventive alternatives. PMID: 31172724 [PubMed]

Predictors of Severe Anaphylaxis In Hymenoptera Venom Allergy: The Importance of Absence of Urticaria/Angioedema
Hymenoptera venom allergy affects approximately 3% of the adult population in Western countries 1,2,3,4 and represents the most common cause of anaphylaxis in Germany, Austria and Switzerland accounting for 50% of reported cases5. The incidence of insect sting related mortality in Europe caused by anaphylaxis is estimated around 200 fatalities per year6, but the incidence of near-fatal episodes might be considerably higher7. Moreover, the documented mortality may be underestimated because of unrecognized insect stings in unexplained causes of death8.

Diagnostic Criteria for Odontogenic Sinusitis: A Systematic Review.
CONCLUSIONS: Current diagnostic criteria for odontogenic sinusitis are extremely heterogeneous. Establishing shared diagnostic criteria aimed at defining both sinusitis and related odontogenic foci would spur collaboration between investigators and support more comprehensive outcomes evaluations together with a better understanding of treatment options.
