 Rhinitis Phenotypes


Authors: Joaquim MullolMD, PhDabAlfonsodel CuvilloMD, PhDcRichard F.LockeyMDd

Abstract

Rhinitis is an umbrella term of a group of upper airway diseases with nasal symptoms and signs with different etiologies and various clinical features or traits. It can be classified into different “phenotypes,” based on these observable traits. A proper differential diagnosis is necessary to adequately manage the disease. The objective of this review is to clarify the concept of rhinitis phenotypes while analyzing the clinical features and/or traits of each in order to determine a proper differential diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

La biopsia cutánea en la urticaria crónica: cuándo realizarla, qué buscar y dónde hacerlo

De
La biopsia cutánea en la urticaria crónica: cuándo realizarla, qué buscar y dónde hacerlo Autores: A. López Mateos, M.J. Sánchez Pujol y J.F. Silvestre Salvador Resumen: La urticaria crónica es una entidad relativamente frecuente en la práctica clínica habitual, cuyo diagnóstico se establece de forma clínica. Sin embargo, existen ocasiones en las que está indicada la realización de una biopsia cutánea para confirmar el diagnóstico y diferenciarla de otras patologías que pueden cursar con erupciones urticariformes. En este trabajo revisamos los hallazgos histopatológicos que podemos encontrar tanto en la urticaria crónica como en las patologías que plantean un diagnóstico diferencial. Con base en ello, proponemos un algoritmo que recoge las indicaciones para realizar una biopsia cutánea y la orientación del diagnóstico en función de los hallazgos histopatológicos que encontremos en la misma.

Managing Food Allergy When the Patient Is Not Highly Allergic

Managing Food Allergy When the Patient Is Not Highly Allergic Authors: Scott H. Sicherer, MD, Elissa M. Abrams, MD, Anna Nowak-Wegrzyn, MD, PhD, and Jonathan O’B. Hourihane, FRCPI Abstract: Few patients with food allergy are “highly allergic,” meaning they always have severe reactions and always react to very small amounts of allergen. Standard medical approaches for allergy management have focused on the safety and lifestyle modifications this group truly needs, but consequently families with food allergy are typically advised to strictly avoid any exposure to their implicated allergens. Most food-allergic subjects are actually not reactive to very low doses, and many never experience severe reactions. There are also notable conditions where a different care plan is already commonly offered: patients with pollen-related food allergy syndrome, with food-associated exercise-induced anaphylaxis, and with resolving or mild milk or egg allergy might be advised to ingest the allergens in sp...
