A systematic review and meta-analysis of nutritional and dietary interventions in randomized controlled trials for skin symptoms in children with atopic dermatitis and without food allergy: An EAACI task force report.

This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to consolidate evidence on dietary interventions for atopic eczema/dermatitis (AD) skin symptoms in children without food allergies, following PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Systematic review updates were conducted in May 2022 and June 2023, focusing on randomized placebo-controlled trials (RCTs) involving children with AD but without food allergies. Specific diets or supplements, such as vitamins, minerals, probiotics, prebiotics, symbiotics, or postbiotics, were explored in these trials.

Epidemiology of measles cases, vaccine effectiveness, and performance towards measles elimination in The Gambia.

Introduction: In 2011, member states of the World Health Organization (WHO) Africa Regional Office (AFRO) resolved to eliminate Measles by 2020. Our study aims to assess The Gambia's progress towards the set AFRO measles elimination target and highlight surveillance and immunisation gaps to better inform future measles prevention strategies.

Material And Methods: A retrospective review of measles surveillance data for the period 2011-2019, was extracted from The Gambia case-based measles surveillance database.

Maternal age at delivery and risk of allergy and asthma in the offspring: a systematic review and meta-analysis protocol.

Introduction: While several perinatal factors have been linked to the risk of developing asthma and allergy in childhood, the role of maternal age at delivery remains uncertain. Some studies suggest that young maternal age at delivery may increase the risk, while other studies suggested a reduced risk. To provide a clearer appreciation of the underlying evidence, we plan to undertake a systematic review to synthesise previous studies that have investigated the association between maternal age at delivery and the risk of asthma and allergy in the offspring.
