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.

However, other pathologies must be considered particularly those resulting from side effects of drugs. We report a case of an 18-year-old female that underwent renal transplant under mycophenolate sodium, tacrolimus, and prednisolone admitted for abdominal pain, diarrhea and weight loss.

Article Synopsis
  • Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are effective cancer treatments but can lead to immune-related adverse events (irAEs) affecting multiple organs, particularly in the gastrointestinal and hepatic systems.
  • A review of recent literature on these toxicities emphasizes the need for gastroenterologists to identify and manage conditions like enterocolitis, hepatitis, and others, using strategies from relevant oncology guidelines.
  • The management of irAEs involves assessing severity, ruling out other causes, and employing treatments such as corticosteroids and immunosuppressants, but clinical guidelines are primarily based on retrospective data.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study explored the use of Direct Oral Drug Provocation Test (DODPT) to safely assess beta-lactam antibiotic (BLA) allergies in children, revealing that over 90% of suspected cases could be ruled out effectively.
  • - It involved 2,133 young patients across 15 hospitals in Spain, noting that most had mild reactions; only a handful experienced severe reactions, such as anaphylaxis, which resolved quickly with treatment.
  • - The results suggest that DODPT is a reliable method for confirming or denying BLA allergies, making it a practical option for doctors in pediatric care to help "delabel" unnecessary allergies.
