The incidence of anaphylaxis might be increasing. Data for fatal are limited because the rarity this outcome.We sought to document trends in admissions and fatalities by age, sex, cause England Wales over a 20-year period.We extracted data from national databases that record hospital caused (1992-2012) crosschecked against prospective registry. We examined time age distribution food, drugs, insect stings.Hospital all-cause increased 615% period studied, but annual fatality rates remained...

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 Background Acquired angioedema due to C1-inhibitor deficiency (AAE-C1-INH) is very rare compared its prototype, hereditary angioedema. An updated characterisation of the AAE-C1-INH cohort in UK required inform management. Objectives To describe disease burden AAE-C1-INH, long-term prophylaxis (LTP) and clinical, immunochemical treatment profiles AAE-associated diseases UK. Method Retrospective data on 117 patients were collected using a national survey proforma across 25/34 Adult...

This is the second report of United Kingdom Primary Immunodeficiency (UKPID) registry. The registry will be a decade old in 2018 and, as August 2017, had recruited 4758 patients encompassing 97% immunology centres within Kingdom. represents doubling recruitment into since we reported on 2229 included our first 2013. Minimum PID prevalence currently 5·90/100 000 and an average incidence between 1980 2000 7·6 cases per 100 UK live births. Data are presented frequency diseases recorded, disease...

We describe an observational survey of diagnostic pathways in 104 patients attending four specialist allergy clinics the United Kingdom following perioperative hypersensitivity reactions to chlorhexidine reactions. The majority were life-threatening. Men undergoing urological or cardiothoracic surgery predominated. Skin prick testing and specific immunoglobulin (sIg)E most common tests used for diagnosis. Fifty-three per cent diagnoses made on basis a single positive test. Where multiple...

A 25-year-old woman presented with unilateral red eye and visual blur, was found to have panuveitis an inflammatory white mass at the macula, initially presumed be Toxoplasma retinitis. After failure respond, she underwent vitrectomy, which produced Candida albicans . Despite intraocular systemic antifungal treatment, lost all vision in that eye. Two years later, developed hip osteomyelitis leading total replacement also revealing infection. By clinical exome sequencing, then caspase...

Immunologists are increasingly being asked to assess patients with non-classical and secondary antibody deficiency determine their potential need for immunoglobulin replacement therapy (IGRT). Immunoglobulin is a limited, expensive resource no clear guidance exists this broad patient group. The purpose of survey establish what factors influence the decision commence IGRT in adult patients, when diagnostic criteria primary not fulfilled. Under auspices United Kingdom Primary Immunodeficiency...

Currently, there is no guideline to support the use of immunoglobulin replacement therapy (IgRT) in primary and secondary immunodeficiency disorders UK. The UK Primary Immunodeficiency Network (UK-PIN) British Society Immunology (BSI) joined forces address this need. Given paucity evidence, a modified Delphi approach was used covering statements for initiation, monitoring, discontinuation IgRT as well home programme. A group six consultant immunologists three nurse specialists created...
