1. 1. Food hypersensitivity among schoolchildren : prevalence, Health Related Quality of Life and experiences of double-blind placebo-controlled food challenges

   Författare :Åsa Strinnholm; Rönmark Eva; Viveca Lindh; Linnéa Hedman; Inger Kull; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Epidemiology; food-induced symptoms; food-reintroduction; interview;

   Sammanfattning : Background: The prevalence of reported food hypersensitivity among children has increased in Western countries. However, the prevalence varies largely due to differences in methods used in different studies. Double-blind placebo-controlled food challenge (DBPCFC) is the most reliable method to verify or exclude food hypersensitivity. LÄS MER

3. 2. Epidemiology of food hypersensitivity in school children : validation with double-blind placebo-controlled food challenges and biomarkers

   Författare :Anna Winberg; Christina West; Eva Rönmark; Sibylle Koletzko; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; food hypersensitivity; schoolchildren; epidemiology; food challenges; biomarkers;

   Sammanfattning : Background: This thesis focuses on the incidence and remission of reported food hypersensitivity in schoolchildren followed from 8 to 12 -years of age and the prevalence of hypersensitivity to milk, egg, cod and wheat among 12-year olds investigated by reported data, clinical investigation and double-blind placebo-controlled food challenges and biomarkers.Methods: The studies are mainly based on a population based cohort recruited in 2006 from three municipalities in Northern Sweden.

4. 3. IgE sensitization against food allergens : Natural history, relation to airway inflammation and asthma

   Författare :Antonios Patelis; Andrei Malinovschi; Eva Rönmark; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; allergen components; extract-based; exhaled NO; airway hyperresponsiveness; blood eosinophil count; IgE sensitization; food hypersensitivity; food allergens; perennial allergens; natural history; markers of systemic inflammation; markers of local inflammation; Lungmedicin; Lung Medicine; Fysiologi; Physiology; Immunologi; Immunology;

   Sammanfattning : Background: According to recent studies in children, IgE sensitization not only against perennial allergens, but also against food allergens, is related to asthma risk and increased airway inflammation. During the last decade, a new technique for IgE determination based on allergen components has become available, but its use in epidemiological studies has been limited. LÄS MER

5. 4. Food Antigen Sensitivity in Coeliac Disease Assessed by the Mucosal Patch Technique

   Författare :Guðjón Kristjánsson; Roger Hällgren; Per Venge; Riccardo Troncone; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medicine; Coeliac disease; Diagnostic instrument; food hypersensitivity; gut pathophysiologi; inflammation; nitric oxide; rectal instillation; gluten; corn; milk hypersensitivity; inflammatory bowel disease; irritable bowel syndrome; Medicin; Dermatology and venerology; clinical genetics; internal medicine; Dermatologi och venerologi; klinisk genetik; invärtesmedicin;

   Sammanfattning : A diagnosis of coeliac disease (CD) in adults relies on the presence of a structurally abnormal intestinal mucosa, followed by a clear clinical remission on a gluten-free diet. There is a clear need for a rapid, simple, safe and sensitive method to determine the type and intensity of inflammation in the gut mucosa in clinical practice. LÄS MER

7. 5. Pathogenesis and Diagnosis of Food Hypersensitivity in Adults

   Författare :Jenny Magnusson; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Birch pollen allergy; DBPCFC; Diagnosis; Duodenal mucosa; Eosinophils; Faecal samples; Food induced gastrointestinal hypersensitivity; IgE; Neutrophil MPO; T lymphocytes;

   Sammanfattning : Objective tools to diagnose local gastrointestinal (GI) inflammatory reactions in patients with food hypersensitivity are lacking. To fully appreciate the mechanisms mediating allergy-like reactions in the GI tract and for improvement of diagnostic techniques more knowledge is required. LÄS MER
