  1. 1. Food allergy in adults

    Författare :Georgios K. Rentzos; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; intestinal allergy; asthma; birch pollen; prevalence; peanut allergy; basophil activation test;

    Sammanfattning : The knowledge on adverse reactions to foods and the spectrum of food-related gastrointestinal symptoms in relation to allergy in adults is still scarce. The conventional allergy tests do not always offer with precision an accurate diagnosis in case of suspicious food allergy and therefore patients often need to be investigated further with oral food challenge or even intestinal biopsy.

    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.

  4. 4. 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

  5. 5. Specific IgE-profiles and allergy prediction

    Författare :Sandra G Tedner; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Presence of antibodies of type Immunoglobulin E (IgE-ab), often called sensitization, is common and often precede development of atopic disease, including food allergy. While not all IgE-sensitized individuals develop food allergy, some seem to be at a higher risk. LÄS MER
