The Global Airways Unit: A Multidisciplinary Strategy for Early Diagnosis and Comorbidity Detection

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic respiratory diseases impose a large global burden of morbidity, mortality, and cost. The concept of a global airway has become increasingly supported by epidemiologic, mechanistic, and clinical evidence. However, clinical care often remains fragmented between ear, nose, and throat (ENT), allergy, and pulmonology.

Laboratorial atopy markers in children with human immunodeficiency virus

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2010
Changes in immune system functions are one of the most important consequences of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Studies have reported a higher prevalence of disease mediated by immunological hypersensitivity mechanisms in HIV-positive ...

Benzalkonium Chloride in Eye Drops Causing Allergic Contact Dermatitis: A Case Series

Australasian Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present three patients who developed allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) from benzalkonium chloride (BAK) in ophthalmic drops. BAK is a preservative commonly found in ophthalmic formulations and there is a rising trend of ACD to this allergen. The irritant and sensitising properties of BAK on the ocular mucosa will be discussed.

Fungal atopy in adult cystic fibrosis [PDF]

, 2000
This study set out to estimate the prevalence of atopy to a variety of common ubiquitous fungi, including A. fumigatus, in cystic fibrosis (CF), and to evaluate the investigations by which the diagnosis was made.

Exhaled Volatile Organic Compounds Identify Allergic Patients Among Individuals With Chronic Rhinitis

Allergy, EarlyView.
Exhaled decane and nonadecane discriminate allergic (AR + LAR) from non‐allergic (NAR + HC) subjects among individuals with chronic rhinitis. LAR patients display higher levels of exhaled nonadecane than NAR individuals at baseline. Subjects with FeNO≥ 25 ppb have higher levels of exhaled decane, nonanal, and styrene than individuals with FeNO < 25 ppb

Environmental Exposure to Endotoxin and Decreased Risk of Childhood Atopy

Allergology International, 2005
The hygiene hypothesis implies, in immunological terms, that microbial stimulation in early life skews the immune system towards the development of a T helper type 1 (Th1)-type lymphocyte population, and away from a T helper type 2 (Th2)-type development

Frequency and Severity of Allergic Reactions to Non‐Mandatory Labelled Allergenic Foods—Data From Two Large European Cohorts

Allergy, EarlyView.
In two large European cohorts, 589 reactions to non‐mandatory labelled plant‐based foods were identified with sunflower seed, pine nut, pea and lentil as the most frequent triggers. Reaction severity was not different between mandatory and non‐mandatory labelled allergenic foods. Their frequency and rising trends (e.g., fenugreek, pumpkin seed) support

Different Implications of Paternal and Maternal Atopy for Perinatal IgE Production and Asthma Development

Clinical and Developmental Immunology, 2012
Asthma is a hereditary disease associated with IgE-mediated reaction. Whether maternal atopy and paternal atopy have different impacts on perinatal IgE production and asthma development remains unclear.

Allergic disorders: A model for establishing how to prevent commondisease

Allergology International, 2004
Allergy to common agents, such as plant pollens, dust mites and foods, is termed atopy. Atopy is the principal cause of the chronic inflammatory diseases of eczema (the skin), hayfever (the nose) and asthma (the lungs) in children and young adults. Atopy

Association of early viral lower respiratory infections and subsequent development of atopy, a systematic review and meta-analysis of cohort studies.

PLoS ONE, 2020
IntroductionExisting evidence on the relationship between childhood lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI) and the subsequent atopy development is controversial. We aimed to investigate an association between viral LRTI at 2 years.MethodsWe conducted
