Occupational Allergy to Peach (Prunus persica) Tree Pollen and Potential Cross-Reactivity between Rosaceae Family Pollens.
Abstract Orchard workers in north China are highly exposed to orchard pollens, especially peach and other Rosaceae family pollens during pollination season. The aim of this study was to investigate whether occupational allergy to peach tree pollen as a member of Rosaceae family is IgE-mediated and to evaluate the cross-reactivity among Rosaceae family pollens. Allergen skin test and conjunctival challenge test were performed; enzyme linked immune-sorbent assay (ELISA), inhibiting ELISA, western immunoblotting and inhibiting western immunoblotting were done with Rosaceae family orchard pollens, including peach, apr...

Allergy-immunology practice parameters and strength of recommendation data: an evolutionary perspective.
CONCLUSION: The A/I practice parameters have evolved significantly over time. Encouragingly, greater controlled trial evidence is associated with updated practice parameters and a recent trend of more narrowly focused topics. These findings should only bolster and inspire confidence in the utility of the A/I practice parameters in assisting practitioners to navigate through the uncertainty that is intrinsic to medicine in making informed decisions with patients.

Natural history of Hymenoptera venom allergy in children not treated with immunotherapy.
CONCLUSIONS: Most children with HVA not treated with VIT reported milder reactions after a re-sting. Probability of SSR to re-sting increases along with the severity of initial reaction. PMID: 26945496 [PubMed - in process]

Characteristics of Anaphylaxis in 907 Chinese Patients Referred to a Tertiary Allergy Center: A Retrospective Study of 1,952 Episodes.
CONCLUSIONS: The present study showed that anaphylaxis appeared to occur more often in adults than in infants and children, which were in contrast to those found in other countries. In particular, wheat allergens played a prominent role in triggering food-induced anaphylaxis, followed by fruits/vegetables. Traditional Chinese medicine was a cause of drug-induced anaphylaxis. Furthermore, exercise was the most common factor aggravating anaphylaxis. Education regarding the more aggressive use of epinephrine in the emergency setting is clearly needed.

Stinging insect allergy: current perspectives on venom immunotherapy
Sian W Ludman,1 Robert J Boyle2 1Paediatric Allergy Department, St Mary's Hospital, Imperial Healthcare NHS Trust, London, UK; 2Department of Paediatrics, Imperial College London, London, UKAbstract: Systemic allergic reactions to insect stings affect up to 5% of the population during their lifetime, and up to 32% of beekeepers. Such reactions can be fatal, albeit very rarely, and fear of a further systemic reaction (SR) can lead to significant anxiety and quality of life impairment. A recent Cochrane systematic review confirmed that venom immunotherapy (VIT) is an effective treatment for people who have had a systemic...

The quantity and quality of α‐gal‐specific antibodies differs in individuals with and without delayed red meat allergy
ConclusionPatients with delayed meat‐allergy display IgE and IgG Ab that selectively recognize the α‐gal‐epitope on BGG. Their enhanced α‐gal‐specific IgE levels are accompanied by high levels of α‐gal‐specific IgG1 devoid of IgE‐blocking activity. This subclass distribution is atypical for food allergies and distinct from natural α‐gal‐IgG responses in non allergic individuals.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Updating knowledge about food allergy: critical needs for the practicing clinician
Food allergy has become a major part of the practice of allergy and immunology, necessitating that the allergist/immunologist remain current on the most cutting edge knowledge in patient management and research. We also need to be equipped to answer the “million dollar questions,” such as why food allergies are on the rise, and can food allergies be treated. Allergy/Immunology clinicians need to separate the “haves” from the “have nots” – that is, defining the patients who have food allergies, from those who think they have food aller gies, but in reality they do not.

Urtica dioica pollen allergy: Clinical, biological, and allergomics analysis.
CONCLUSION: Exposure to nettle pollen can be responsible of allergic symptoms, and several allergens were characterized. Unravelling the allergens of this underestimated allergy might help to improve diagnosis and care for patients, to predict cross-reactivities and design adapted specific immunotherapy.

An unusual case of occupational asthma in a part time magician. He has got an allergy surprise from his top hat!
In this report we describe a case of respiratory allergy induced by an unusual occupational exposure to rabbit. The patient worked as a part-time magician in theatres and private parties and the most popular performance of his show was to pull out a white rabbit from a top hat. Unfortunately, a few minutes after the extraction of rabbit from top hat, the patient experienced the onset of upper and lower airway symptoms, and in some occasions he was forced to stop the show and to use short acting β₂agonists and intramuscular steroids. The results of SPT and evaluation of serological specific IgE (ImmunoCAP and ImmunoCAP I...
