The frequency of blood eosinophilia was determined by absolute (cells/ µL) and relative (%) eosinophil count. Multivariate methods were used in order to identify the associated factors.Results: 81 patients were included; the mean age was 71.9 ± 9.8 years; 46 (57%) of the patients were men. The prevalence of eosinophilia for the cut-off points of ≥ 100, ≥ 150, ≥ 200, ≥ 300, and ≥ 400 cells/µL was of 64.2%, 37.0%, 16.1%, and 9.9% respectively. Out of 81 patients, 34 (42%) had a relative eosinophil concentration of ≥ 2%; 21 (25.9%) ≥ 3%; 14 patients (17.3%) had ≥ 4%; and 10 patients (12.3%) had ≥ 5%. Eosinophilia of ≥ 100 cells/µL was associated with age of ≥ 80 years (OR = 6.04, p = 0.026), and with the exacerbation of COPD (OR = 9.40, p = 0.038); in contrast, eosinophilia of ≥ 2% was associated only with age of ≥ 80 years (OR = 3.73, p = 0.020).

Eventually, the information of 35 events of anaphylaxis in 20 patients was analyzed; three of them had multiple episodes of anaphylaxis.Results: The median age for the anaphylactic episodes was 11 years (Interquartile range 10 years, Q1 = 5, Q3 = 15), predominantly in adolescents between the ages of 12 and 17 years, and there was a slight predominance in women. The most frequent clinical manifestations were cutaneous (86%), followed by respiratory (83%), cardiovascular (74%), and gastrointestinal (46%) alterations. Cardiac arrest was documented in three episodes; however, no anaphylaxis-related deaths were reported. The main triggers for anaphylaxis were food (34%), medications (29%), allergen-specific immunotherapy (14%), and latex (11%). In patients with perioperative anaphylaxis, the clinical behavior was severe. Epinephrine was administered in 27 out of the 35 events (77%), but only in 11 cases it was the first-line treatment. Systemic corticosteroids were the most frequently used treatment, followed by epinephrine and antihistamines.Conclusions: The use of epinephrine, which is the mainstay of the treatment, is suboptimal; with a preferred use of second-line medications like corticosteroids. Clear protocols for the diagnosis and treatment of anaphylaxis, as well as continuous education of health personnel, are necessary.","PeriodicalId":21175,"journal":{"name":"Revista alergia Mexico","volume":"68 3","pages":"160-164"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39507454","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The absence of ROS produced by NADPH oxidase in neutrophils and in macrophages leads to greater susceptibility to certain bacterial and fungal infections, and also to inflammatory manifestations due to a deregulated inflammatory response, which suggests that the ability to adequately regulate inflammatory signaling depends on ROS produced by NADPH oxidase. The disease course in patients with X-linked CGD is more severe, with recurrent invasive infections; in contrast, patients with non-classic CGD do not present invasive bacterial or fungal infections, but have more prominent inflammatory manifestations. The most frequent gastrointestinal manifestations are stomatitis, gingivitis, chronic diarrhea, liver abscesses that are similar to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and granulomas that can cause obstruction or stenosis in the esophagus, stomach or intestine. It has been observed that the deficiency of p40phox and ROS (non-classic CGD) are associated with greater susceptibility to colitis and the development of severe inflammation; therefore, it is presented that these proteins participate in the resolution of inflammation. In general, the inflammatory findings in CGD, including gastrointestinal manifestations, are seldom described. In international cohorts, manifestations that are similar to IBD are reported in up to 58% of patients with CGD; however, in the only Mexican cohort, its finding is described in only 4 out of 93 patients (4.3%). In this review, we summarize the gastrointestinal clinical findings of CGD, including infectious and inflammatory manifestations, emphasizing on the latter.","PeriodicalId":21175,"journal":{"name":"Revista alergia Mexico","volume":"68 3","pages":"198-205"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39505980","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It has been established that the main transmission mechanism of this virus is via airborne route, which is why it initially infects the respiratory tract. Currently, the effectiveness of medications used against COVID-19 is limited, and although immunization programs have been initiated, there is international inequality in the distribution of vaccines. Accordingly, the search for adjuvant therapies continues to be an alternative for research. Supplementation with vitamin A has been associated to the decrease of mortality from infection; this effect could be mediated by retinoic acid (RA), which is the active metabolite of vitamin A that exerts immunomodulatory functions. According to preclinical studies, RA favors the production of secretory immunoglobulin A (IgA) in the respiratory tract. In addition to this, the retinol-binding protein has been correlated with the concentration of IgA and neutralizing antibodies in patients with influenza. Therefore, this review aims to address the involvement of vitamin A in the production of secretory IgA in the respiratory epithelium in order to highlight its potential protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection.","PeriodicalId":21175,"journal":{"name":"Revista alergia Mexico","volume":"68 3","pages":"185-197"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39505977","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
