Non-specific Lipid Transfer proteins (nsLTPs) are relevant allergens of several pollens and plant foods. Sensitization to nsLTPs is not typical in our region. Still, it has become an increasingly common cause of IgE-mediated food allergies and food-induced anaphylaxis in Northern Europe in recent decades.

Food allergy-induced pancreatitis is a rare condition that presents unique diagnostic challenges. While acute pancreatitis (AP) is typically linked to factors such as gallstones, alcohol consumption, metabolic issues, medications, and autoimmune conditions, food allergies are seldom considered a potential cause. Diagnosing food allergy-induced pancreatitis often requires a high index of suspicion and the exclusion of more common causes of pancreatitis.

There is a common perception that peanut/tree nut particles can be transmitted through aircraft ventilation systems and pose a significant risk to passengers with food allergies. In fact, food-induced allergic reactions are around 10-100 times less common during flights than 'on the ground', perhaps because of the multiple precautions food-allergic passengers take when flying. We review the evidence for strategies to help prevent accidental allergic reactions while travelling on commercial flights (review registered at PROSPERO, ref CRD42022384341).
