Factors associated with the course of egg allergy in children.
CONCLUSION: Baseline egg white sIgE levels, baseline gastrointestinal system involvement, concomitant cow's milk allergy, and anaphylaxis with egg may predict a more severe course of egg allergy with late resolution. Moreover, egg white sIgE levels and gastrointestinal symptoms after egg exposure seem to increase the risk of anaphylaxis with egg. PMID: 26505933 [PubMed - in process]

Hen's Egg Allergy.
Authors: Urisu A, Kondo Y, Tsuge I Abstract Egg allergy is one of the most frequent food allergies in infants and young children. The prevalence of egg allergy is estimated to be between 1.8 and 2% in children younger than 5 years of age. The reactions are mainly mediated by IgE and partially by non-IgE or are a mix of both types. Egg white contains more than 20 different proteins and glycoproteins. Ovomucoid (Gal d 1), ovalbumin (Gal d 2), conalbumin (ovotransferrin) (Gal d 3) and lysozyme (Gal d 4) have been identified as major allergens in hen's egg. Alpha-livetin (Gal d 5) is thought to be a main egg yolk aller...

Food-specific serum immunoglobulin E measurements in children presenting with food allergy.
CONCLUSION: In children presenting with clinical symptoms of a reaction to a food allergen, measurements of food-specific serum IgE to other common food allergens are commonly positive. An increase in food-specific serum IgE occurs over time. PMID: 24468251 [PubMed - in process]

The custom clearance of pro- and prebiotics in allergy prevention
Although allergy was considered a “white elephant” in the previous century,1 it currently affects large strata of the population, not only in the industrialized world but also with an increasing incidence in emerging countries. After the increase in respiratory allergy from 1960 through 1990, there has been a remarkable increase in food allergy, which has reached epidemic proportions.2 Australian data have indicated that more than 10% of 1-year-old infants in the 2010s have challenge-proved immunoglobulin A-mediated food allergy to one of the common allergenic foods of infancy, with sensitization reported at 8.9% for p...

A Rare Case with Quail Egg Allergy without Allergic Reactions to Oral Food Challenge with Hen's Egg White.
Abstract Hen's egg, as one of the most common reasons for IgE-mediated food hypersensitivity, affects both children and adults. Taking precautionary measures is suggested for the consumption of other birds' eggs for patients with allergy to hen's egg. This paper describes a rare patient with quail egg allergy, which manifested no allergic reactions after oral food challenge with hen's egg white. PMID: 32615665 [PubMed - in process]

Baked Egg Food Challenges – Clinical Utility of Skin Test to Baked Egg and Ovomucoid in Children with Egg Allergy
Conclusions and clinical relevanceA SPT of <2mm to muffin had a high negative predictive value to baked egg challenge. Ovomucoid SPT ≥ 11 mm was very likely to predict a reaction to baked egg.. In these children, deferring the challenge would be appropriate.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Position document IgE-mediated allergy to egg protein.
Abstract Egg is the food that most often causes allergy in young Spanish children, with an incidence of 2.4-2.6% in the first 2 years of life. The prevalence of sensitisation and allergy to egg is greater in children with allergy to cow's milk and in those suffering atopic dermatitis. The protein component from egg white is the cause of the allergic response in child. The major allergens in egg white are ovomucoid and ovalbumin. Most of the allergic reactions affect the skin, followed by gastrointestinal and respiratory systems. Egg allergy is one of the most common causes of severe anaphylaxis. The diagnosis of e...

Egg Sensitisation, Allergy and Component Patterns in African Children with Atopic Dermatitis
ConclusionThe prevalence of egg allergy is high in African children with AD, but history of egg allergy and sensitisation to egg significantly overestimate the true egg allergy rate. SPT to fresh egg white was more sensitive than that to commercial egg white extract, hence fresh egg white should be recommended in an egg allergy screening panel. The component ovomucoid was useful for differentiating allergy from tolerance in egg‐sensitised participants. Population specific 95% PPV for egg allergy tests may need to be established in developing world populations.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Which infants with eczema are at risk of food allergy? Results from a population‐based cohort
Conclusion and Clinical RelevanceEczema, across the clinical severity spectrum in infancy, is a strong risk factor for IgE‐mediated food allergy. Infants with eczema were 6 times more likely to have egg allergy and 11 times more likely to have peanut allergy by 12 months than infants without eczema. Our data suggest that a heightened awareness of food allergy risk among healthcare practitioners treating infants with eczema, especially if early onset and severe, is warranted.This article is protected by copyright.

Diagnostic Decision Points of Specific IgE Concentrations in Korean Children With Egg and Cow's Milk Allergies.
CONCLUSIONS: Our results indicated that different diagnostic decision points (DDPs) of sIgE levels should be used for the diagnosis of egg or CM allergy in Korean children. The data also suggest that DDPs with high PPV and high NPV are useful for determining whether OFC is required in children with suspected egg or CM allergy.
