Analysis of immunograms of 189 children with allergic diseases of the reagin type (55 with atopic bronchial asthma, 33 with atopic dermatitis, 101 with respiratory allergosis) helped single out a complex of immunological parameters which markedly and statistically reliably change in this type of allergy in comparison with a group of healthy children (n = 25). This complex is recommended to be used for the detection of the principal pathogenetic factor of the reagin-type allergic diseases and monitoring the therapy efficacy.

Unlabelled: Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) characterised by type 2 inflammation, including asthma, allergic rhinitis, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, atopic dermatitis, food allergies and eosinophilic esophagitis, are increasing in prevalence worldwide. Currently, there is a major paradigm shift in the management of these diseases, towards the concept of disease modification and the treatment goal remission, regardless of severity and age. Remission as a treatment goal in chronic inflammatory NCDs was first introduced in rheumatoid arthritis, and then adopted in other non-type 2 inflammatory diseases.

Allergic diseases commonly coexist, manifesting in a sequence described as the "allergic march". This study aimed to evaluate TSLP's and IL-1β's potential as biomarkers in both single and multi-pediatric atopic diseases like atopic eczema, food allergy, and anaphylaxis and analyze specific SNPs in the TSLP and IL-1β genes to determine their associations with their occurrence and severity. This analysis included 109 atopic children diagnosed with atopic dermatitis, food allergy, or anaphylaxis alongside a control group of 57 non-atopic children.

Asthmatic children who tested positive for COVID-19 experienced changes in lung function and persistent symptoms following SARS-CoV-2 infection, even for several months after diagnosis, and with the same features as in an acute phase. This study aimed to analyze a pediatric age group (between 0 and 17 years old) diagnosed with asthma, and SARS-CoV-2 infection attending regular monitoring visits in a Pediatric Department of a Regional Tertiary Hospital (Filantropia Clinical Municipal Hospital Craiova, Romania) during the COVID-19 pandemic and post-pandemic time interval (i.e.

Tick-bite hypersensitivity encompasses a range of clinical manifestations, from localized allergic reactions to systemic conditions like alpha-gal syndrome (AGS), an IgE-mediated allergy to galactose-α-1,3-galactose (α-Gal). This study investigated the clinical, molecular, immunological, and genetic features of two hypersensitivity cases. Two cases were analyzed: a 30-year-old woman with fixed drug reaction (FDR)-like hypersensitivity and a 10-year-old girl with AGS exhibiting borderline α-Gal-specific IgE.
