Immune signatures predicting the clinical outcome of peanut oral immunotherapy: where we stand.

Peanut allergy is a growing health concern that can cause mild to severe anaphylaxis as well as reduced quality of life in patients and their families. Oral immunotherapy is an important therapeutic intervention that aims to reshape the immune system toward a higher threshold dose reactivity and sustained unresponsiveness in some patients. From an immunological point of view, young patients, especially those under 3 years old, seem to have the best chance for therapy success.

Novel, computational IgE-clustering in a population-based cross-sectional study: Mapping the allergy burden.

Background: Even though the prevalence of allergies is increasing, population-based data are still scarce. As a read-out for chronic inflammatory information, new methods are needed to integrate individual biological measurements and lifestyle parameters to mitigate the consequences and costs of allergic burden for society.

Methods: More than 480.

Comparative Study of Clinical and Dermoscopic Features in Nail Psoriasis.

Background Aims And Objectives: Nail changes have been reported in approximately 40% of psoriasis patients. Occasionally nail psoriasis may be the sole finding or the first presentation of the disease. Assessment of the nail changes associated with psoriasis can be done clinically, ultrasonographically, and most recently using a dermoscope.
