Anaphylaxis, which is rare, has been reported after COVID-19 vaccination, but its management not standardized.Members of the European Network for Drug Allergy and Academy Clinical Immunology interested in drug allergy participated an online questionnaire on pre-vaccination screening allergic reactions to vaccines, literature was analysed.No death due anaphylaxis vaccines confirmed scientific literature. Potential allergens, polyethylene glycol (PEG), polysorbate tromethamine are excipients....
Abstract The EAACI Guidelines on the impact of short‐term exposure to outdoor pollutants asthma‐related outcomes provide recommendations for prevention, patient care and mitigation in a framework supporting rational decisions healthcare professionals patients individualize improve asthma management policymakers regulators as an evidence‐informed reference help setting legally binding standards goals air quality at international, national local levels. Guideline was developed using GRADE...
ABSTRACT The EAACI Guidelines used the GRADE approach to evaluate impact of major indoor air pollutants (dampness and mould, cleaning agents, volatile organic compounds pesticides) on risk new‐onset asthma asthma‐related outcomes. guideline also acknowledges synergies among other components exposome (allergens, viruses, endotoxins). Very low certainty evidence was found for association between exposure increased worsening. Only mould there moderate asthma. Due quality evidence, conditional...
Thunderstorm-triggered asthma (TA) can be defined as the occurrence of acute attacks immediately following a thunderstorm during pollen seasons. Outbreaks have occurred across world season with capacity to rapidly inundate health care service, resulting in potentially catastrophic outcomes for allergicpatients. TA occurs when specific meteorological and aerobiological factors combine affect predisposed atopic patients IgE-mediated sentitization allergens. Thunderstorm outflows concentrate...
Purpose of review To delineate pertinent information regarding the application molecular allergology within realm both genetic and epidemiological facets allergic diseases. Recent findings The emergence allergy has facilitated comprehension biochemical characteristics allergens originating from diverse sources. It allowed for exploration sensitization trajectories provided novel insights into influence genetics environmental exposure on initiation development This delves primary discoveries...
In recent years, the environmental impacts of climate change have become increasingly evident. Extreme meteorological events are influenced by change, which also alter magnitude and pattern precipitations winds. Climate can a particularly negative impact on respiratory health, lead to emergence asthma allergic illnesses. Pollen is one main components atmospheric bioaerosol able induce symptoms in certain subjects. affects onset, length, severity pollen season, with effects allergy. Higher...
Gibberellin-regulated proteins (GRPs, Peamaclein) are allergens recently identified in plant-derived food allergy (FA), and little is known about the clinical manifestations of this allergic condition European population, especially children.Our study aimed to identify characterize pediatric patients with pollen-FA due GRP sensitization.We retrospectively analyzed charts referred Allergy Unit Meyer Children's Hospital Florence for suspected FA. Three main eligibility criteria based on actual...
Food allergy immunotherapy is a promising allergen-specific approach to manage food in children, although it not exempt from adverse events, even severe. The events are predictable and furthermore co-factors can play role triggering them. During the COVID- 19 pandemic, patients on should be provided with suggestions how proceed event of COVID-19 infection occurring or suspected. These recommendations would support clinical practitioners dealing since there little data literature topic.
Background. Hypersensitivity reactions (HSR) to taxanes have been related a complement activation by their excipients, polyoxyethylated castor oil and Polysorbate 80, structurally those of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines. The aim this study was verify the presence higher risk HSR vaccines in patients with history taxanes. Methods. Patients were evaluated before vaccination our center underwent skin tests for PEG 80 (PandP). Some completed course other centers without prior PandP because they had not...
The prevalence of food allergy has increased in recent years, especially children. Food allergen avoidance and symptomatic drugs case an allergic reaction remain the standard care allergy. Nevertheless, increasing attention been given to possibility treat allergy, through immunotherapy, particularly oral immunotherapy (OIT). Several OIT protocols clinical trials have published. Most them focus on children milk, egg, or peanuts, although studies developed for other foods, such as wheat...
