Although food allergy may put some children at risk for inadequate growth or nutritional deficiency, with education and follow-up it is possible to prevent and treat these problems. The primary care setting is the ideal setting for monitoring and intervention due to the continuity of care and rapport with the family that has already been established.

The baked side: Cow's milk and egg protein threshold dose distributions in children reacting to baked milk and baked egg.
World Allergy Organ J
January 2025
Allergy Unit, Bambino Gesù Children's Hospital, IRCCS, Rome, Italy.
Background: Children allergic to milk and egg, but tolerant to baked products, display higher reactivity thresholds than the general population of children allergic to milk and egg. We sought to verify the reactivity thresholds of milk- and egg-allergic children who also react to baked milk and baked egg, respectively.
Methods: We retrospectively assessed consecutive oral food challenge (OFC) for baked milk and egg between January 2018 and March 2022 in a population of baked milk- and baked-egg allergic children.
IgE-based analysis of sensitization and cross-reactivity to yellow mealworm and edible insect allergens before their widespread dietary introduction.

The European Commission authorized the use of dried yellow mealworm (Tenebrio molitor - TM) as a food ingredient under Regulation EU 2021/882. As TM emerges as an important allergen source, sensitization and allergy to TM in various populations need investigation. The aim of this study was to assess the incidence of sensitization to TM before its introduction as a food ingredient in Poland, as well as checking the occurrence of co-sensitivity to TM and other invertebrate allergenic extracts and molecules.

Department of Pediatrics, University Hospital of Ioannina, Ioannina, Greece.
Anaphylaxis, the most severe end of the spectrum of allergic reactions, has shown increasing incidence globally over recent years. This hypersensitivity reaction can occur at any age, including infancy. Recent data, although scarce, show that anaphylaxis is increasingly reported in infancy, with food identified as the leading cause of anaphylaxis cases in this age group.

Department of Pediatric Allergy and Immunology, Cemil Tascioglu City Hospital, University of Health Sciences, Istanbul, Turkey.
Background: Food protein-induced allergic proctocolitis is a nonimmunoglobulin E-mediated, self-limited food allergy of the rectum and the colon. Cow's milk protein is the most common allergen responsible for the disease.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the roles of different types of formulas in building early tolerance to food protein-induced allergic proctocolitis in infants.
Drug-induced enterocolitis, a new condition under consideration.

Pediatric Allergy and Pulmonology Unit, Children's University Hospital Reina Sofia, Cordoba, Spain;
Drug-induced enterocolitis syndrome (DIES), little known due to its recent description, is analogous to food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES). Both processes are more frequent in pediatric age and share diagnostic criteria, the main one being the appearance of persistent vomiting 1-4 hours after ingestion of the drug or food, in the absence of IgE-mediated allergy symptoms.
