  1. 1. 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

  2. 2. 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. 3. Allergy diagnosis in children IgE-sensitized to peanut : clinical and immunological evaluation

    Författare :Susanne Glaumann; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Peanut allergy is often life-long and affects quality of life since accidental ingestion may lead to severe or even fatal reactions. Sensitization to peanut can be due to genuine peanut allergy or to cross-sensitization due to birch pollen. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Food allergy in children and adults with emphasis on peanut. Relation to IgE antibodies, food consumption, symptoms and disease development

    Författare :Jenny Van Odijk; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Peanuts have been reported to cause severe allergic reactions especially in young children, and sensitisation present in small children suggests possible sensitisation in utero or during breast feeding. Some countries are therefore recommending maternal avoidance of peanut for the mothers during this period. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Diagnostics and treatment of nut and peanut allergy

    Författare :Josef Brandström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: The prevalence of allergy to foods has increased over the last decades and among children in Europe as many as 8 % have an allergy to one or more types of food. However, many children have received an incorrect diagnosis of food allergy due to shortcomings of available diagnostic tests, especially in the case of suspected allergy to nuts or peanuts. LÄS MER
