Background: Clinical studies of biologics in severe asthma exclude smokers or ex-smokers (ExS) with over 10 pack-years (py). Thus, the effectiveness of this therapy in ex-smokers with severe asthma is not well understood.
Objectives: To assess the impact of smoking on clinical efficiency of biologics in patients with severe asthma from the German Asthma Net (GAN), a comprehensive international registry.

Objective: This paper aims to review the efficacy and safety of current chronic urticaria (CU) treatment in children and the existing patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) used in this age group.
Data Source: Since there are few studies of CU in children, the authors performed a non-systematic review of published articles in English, Spanish, and Portuguese in the PubMed database in the last decade. Keywords used were (antihistamines OR omalizumab OR cyclosporine OR treatment) AND (chronic urticaria) AND (children OR adolescents).

Nephrotic syndrome (NS) and atopic diseases are linked through shared immunological pathways, with allergic triggers often contributing to NS relapses, particularly in immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated pathways. Omalizumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting free and cell-bound IgE, is commonly used in treating atopic diseases. We presented a pediatric case with a history of eczema, asthma, and recurrent atopic rhinitis, who first developed NS at age three, responding well to steroid therapy.

However, there is a pressing need to verify their therapeutic efficacy in children and adolescents with asthma. To address this, we conducted a network meta-analysis (NMA) to evaluate the efficacy and safety of biologics in the asthma management of this demographic.

Food allergy is a common disease which has substantial impacts on the quality of life of patients and their families, and all reactions have the potential for causing life-threatening anaphylaxis. Food allergic individuals currently have 2 FDA approved therapeutic options available to them aside from life-long allergen avoidance: oral immunotherapy (OIT), and omalizumab. OIT for food allergy has been extensively studied in clinical trials and currently provides the greatest level of protection, however it also has a high burden of treatment.
