Food anaphylaxis is a severe, potentially life-threatening, systemic hypersensitivity reaction. Within a retrospective study we applied ImmunoCAP-ISAC in a heterogenous cohort of 54 food anaphylactic patients and compared its performance to conventional in vitro (ELISA, ImmunoCAP) and in vivo (skin prick test, oral food challenge) diagnosis. see more Comparing clinical diagnosis with results obtained by ImmunoCAP-ISAC we obtained moderate agreement (kappa 0.524, p less then 0.05). The comparison between SPT and ImmunoCAP vs ImmunoCAP-ISAC indicates a good sensitivity of microarray testing. Among the 54 tested sera, 36 and 41 were in substantial agreement with results obtained by SPT (69%, kappa 0.667, p less then 0.05) and ImmunoCAP-ISAC (76%, kappa 0.759, p less then 0.05), respectively. Within this adult anaphylaxis cohort, plant food allergens were identified as the predominant IgE-binding proteins, with PR10 proteins, ω-5-gliadin and nsLTPs as the most frequent ones. In summary, microarray based IgE testing may help to unravel the elicitating food in anaphylaxis in particular when the elicitor is so far unknown. Studying the developmental precursors of allergy may help explain the mechanisms (or etiology) of allergic disease. We studied childhood respiratory and allergic diseases in a pre-birth cohort from the United States. We assessed the associations between maternal history of asthma and the development of respiratory and allergic diseases in offspring. We also assessed associations with maternal history of allergic rhinitis. Maternal history of asthma and allergic rhinitis was self-reported during early pregnancy. Offspring respiratory and allergy information was obtained from electronic medical records. Adjusted Cox proportional hazard models assessed the associations between maternal history of asthma and development of respiratory and allergic diseases in the offspring up to 8 years. A similar approach was used for maternal history of allergic rhinitis. Children born to women with a history of asthma had a 77% greater risk of developing asthma, a 45% greater risk of atopic dermatitis/eczema, and a 65% may guide physicians who counsel families with a history of maternal asthma and allergic rhinitis about their child's risk of developing respiratory and allergic diseases. The term "Food Allergy" refers to a complex global health problem with a wide spectrum of severity. However, a uniform definition of severe food allergy is currently missing. This systematic review is the preliminary step towards a state-of-the-art synopsis of the current evidence relating to the severity of IgE-mediated food allergy; it will inform attempts to develop a consensus to define food allergy severity by clinicians and other stakeholders. We undertook a mixed-methods systematic review, which involved searching 11 international biomedical databases for published studies from inception to 31 December 2019. Studies were independently screened against pre-defined eligibility criteria and critically appraised by established instruments. The substantial heterogeneity of included studies precluded meta-analyses and, therefore, narrative synthesis of quantitative and qualitative data was performed. We found 23 studies providing eligible primary data on symptom-specific severity of food allergic reactReviews (PROSPERO) database with the registration number CRD42020183103 (https//).This paper describes SUD/addictions training at the University of New Mexico. Coordinated and integrated academic, research, and clinical training resources are described, with an emphasis on the integration of resources across multiple training domains. Academic training resources in the Psychology Department include core clinical courses, basic science courses, and opportunities for students to develop expertise in health or quantitative psychology.
