Advances in pediatric allergy

Current Opinion in Pediatrics
Kelly D Stone

Abstract

The purpose of this review is to highlight several important findings related to the broad topic of pediatric allergic diseases reported over the past year, focusing primarily on asthma, urticaria, food allergy, and vaccine reactions. Progress continues to be made in identifying environmental exposures during the first years of life that are important for the development of atopic diseases, including asthma. Interventions are being sought based on these findings, to prevent the development of atopic diseases. Chronic urticaria in children is difficult to manage and there is little data related specifically to children to guide treatment and education. Two reports of large populations of children with chronic urticaria were reported in the past year; one dealing with chronic idiopathic, urticaria and one with acquired cold urticaria. Food allergy continues to increase in prevalence and improvements in diagnosis and management continue. Finally, a report of vaccine anaphylaxis cases among a large database was reported. Allergic disorders comprise a major component of pediatric practice. Advances continue in understanding the origins and natural history of these disorders and treatments are now available that allow effective manag...Continue Reading

Atopic Dermatitis

Atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory genetically determined disease of the skin marked by increased ability to form reagin (IgE), with increased susceptibility to allergic rhinitis and asthma, and hereditary disposition to a lowered threshold for pruritus. Discover the latest research on atopic dermatitis here.

Allergy and Asthma

Allergy and asthma are inflammatory disorders that are triggered by the activation of an allergen-specific regulatory t cell. These t cells become activated when allergens are recognized by allergen-presenting cells. Here is the latest research on allergy and asthma.

Asthma

This feed focuses in Asthma in which your airways narrow and swell. This can make breathing difficult and trigger coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath.

Allergies & Environmental Factors

Environmental factors are strongly associated with the prevalence of allergies and are an increasing health concern worldwide. Discover the latest research on Allergies and Environmental Factors here.

Anaphylaxis

Anaphylaxis is a serious allergic reaction that is rapid in onset and may cause death.
