Capítulo B01.  Tree pollen allergy. Authors:   Enrico Scala, Riccardo Asero, Verena  Niederberger                                            Abstract   Cup a 1 reactivity is the specific marker  allergen for a sensitization to the Cupressaceae family.  PR-10 molecules (i.e. Bet v 1) are the major  allergens in Fagales pollen, often associated  with an oral allergy syndrome.  Ole e 1 is the most common sensitizing molecule in olive pollen.  Pla a 1 and Pla a 2 may serve as a marker of  primary sensitization to plane tree pollen.

Sulfonamide Drug Allergy. Authors: Dorn JM1, Alpern M1, McNulty C1, Volcheck GW2. 1 Mayo Clinic, Division of Allergic Diseases, 200 First Street SW, Rochester, MN, 55905, USA. 2 Mayo Clinic, Division of Allergic Diseases, 200 First Street SW, Rochester, MN, 55905, USA. Volcheck.gerald@mayo.edu. Abstract PURPOSE OF REVIEW: We sought to review past and current literature on sulfonamide drug allergy and distill it in a practical manner to assist the clinician, specifically focusing on cross-reactivity and desensitization. RECENT FINDINGS: There do not appear to be consistent genetic markers to reliably predict features of or the presence hypersensitivity reactions. Recent evidence continues to alleviate early concerns cross-reactivity between sulfonamide antibiotics and non-antibiotics. Sulfonamide drug allergy is frequently encountered by the practicing clinician. For sulfonamide antibiotics, delayed rash is the most common clinical manifestation. There is no current evid...

Nutritional Issues in Food Allergy. Authors: Skypala IJ1,2, McKenzie R3. 1 Royal Brompton and Harefield NHS Foundation Trust, London, UK. i.skypala@rbht.nhs.uk. 2 Imperial College, London, UK. i.skypala@rbht.nhs.uk. 3 Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust, London, UK. Abstract Diet and nutrition play an important role in the development and management of food allergy. The diet of expectant mothers can have an effect on their offspring in terms of allergic outcomes. A host of confounding factors may influence this, with a maternal diet rich in fruits and vegetables, fish, vitamin D-rich foods associated with a lower risk of allergic disease in their children. More surprisingly, the consumption of milk and butter has also been shown to have a protective effect, especially in a farm environment. Similarly, the diet of the infant can also be important, not only in terms of breast feeding, but also the timing of the introduction of complementary foods, the diversity o...
