Gut microbial alteration in chronic spontaneous urticaria unresponsive to second generation antihistamines and its correlation with disease characteristics- a cross-sectional case-control study.
Clin Transl Allergy
January 2025
Department of Dermatology, Hospital del Mar Research Institute, Barcelona, Spain.
Background: Gut microbial involvement has been speculated in chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU). The aim of the study was to compare the gut microbiome composition and diversity in CSU patients uncontrolled with second-generation antihistamines (sgAHs) and healthy individuals, as well as to explore any association between gut microbiome and disease characteristics.
Methods: A cross-sectional case-control study including 20 CSU patients unresponsive to standard doses of sgAHs, and 15 age-and-sex matched healthy controls was conducted.

Assesment of Salivary and Serum Levels of HBD2 in Patients with Chronic Angioedema.

: Human β-defensin 2 (HBD2) is a protein that plays an important role in activating the immune system by modulating spinal pathways and the inflammatory response. According to previous research, HBD2 was proven to be important in chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) (their values were significantly elevated in CSU patients, with a significant correlation between HBD2 levels and the percentage of peripheral basophils, suggesting that elevated HBD2 levels may be a potential marker of basophil and mast cell activation), which led us to additional research on the HBD2 molecule in isolated chronic angioedema. The aim of this research is to examine HBD2 values in the saliva and serum of patients with isolated angioedema, as a potential biomarker of the disease.

Background: Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) help to assess disease control and quality of life (QoL) in chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) and recurrent angioedema (RA). This study aimed to assess the correlation between two different concepts: disease control and QoL, using disease-specific PROMs.
Methods: We analyzed data from 445 CSU and 330 RA patients who completed both a disease control and QoL PROM as part of the clinical routine.
Chronic spontaneous urticaria remission definition and therapy stepping-down. WAO Position Paper.
J Allergy Clin Immunol
December 2024
Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Rheumatology, Allergy and Immunology, University of Cincinnati, USA.
Background: There is no global agreement on the definition of Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria (CSU) remission.
Objective: To generate a consensus for clinical definitions in CSU focused on remission.
Methods: The World Allergy Organization (WAO) Urticaria Committee systematically reviewed current available longitudinal articles.
