Methods: Children with immediate CMA symptoms after consuming <25 mL of CM within 2 years of a baseline LD-OFC were retrospectively analyzed.
Article Synopsis
- The study assessed the implementation of medical practices for adult patients with food allergies (FA) in Japan, focusing on a survey conducted at allergy specialist training facilities.
- About 33% of surveyed facilities treated patients with FA, with a notable focus on pediatric departments, where most adult cases derived from childhood-onset allergies.
- The study concluded that the current medical support for adult patients is lacking, emphasizing the need for better transitional care and more oral food challenges (OFC) to improve outcomes.
Background: The clinical importance of sensitization to 6 (Ara h 6) in Japanese children remains unelucidated. We aimed to quantitatively evaluate the clinical importance of sensitization to Ara h 6 in managing peanut allergy in Japanese children.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the data of children with or without symptoms induced by an oral food challenge or home dosing of up to 3 g of peanuts.
