To evaluate the efficacy of immunotherapy, two questionnaires were completed for all the patients before and one year after the start of immunotherapy, including the Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS) and Asthma Control Test (ACT).</p></div><div><h3>Results</h3><p>A total of 878 patients with asthma or allergic rhinitis disorder [53.6% (<em>n</em> <!-->=<!--> <!-->471) male and 46.4% (<em>n</em> <!-->=<!--> <!-->407) female] with a median (IQR) age of 28.0 (12.0–35.0) years were randomly enrolled in this observational study. Five hundred forty-nine patients (64.8%) were over 18 years old and 298 patients (33.9%) were under 18 years old, the age of the other patients was not known.

It is an exclusion diagnosis and requires careful consideration of all recognizable and rare causes of anaphylaxis. Psychiatric conditions, such as somatoform disorders, should be considered in the differential diagnosis when there is a paucity or absence of clinical signs. A 17-year-old female patient was admitted to the inpatient clinic for pediatric allergy due to recurrent anaphylaxis. In the last two years, the patient was administered intramuscular epinephrine more than 200 times and was admitted to the intensive care unit four times due to severe anaphylaxis. The attacks frequently appeared as flushing, itching, shortness of breath, and rarely hypotension, but without a defined trigger. The patient was diagnosed with IA and received oral steroids, omalizumab, and rituximab. However, none of her attacks were accompanied by elevated tryptase levels and the aforementioned pharmacotherapies did not prevent relapse. After psychiatric evaluation, somatoform disorders were suspected despite striking variations in the severity of the physical symptoms. The psychiatric diagnosis was also supported by a good response to fluoxetine and supportive individual psychotherapy. The patient is currently being followed up without any anaphylactic attacks. Somatoform disorders should be considered in the differential diagnosis of IA because of overlapping physical symptoms. In the clinical practice of diagnosing and managing IA, symptoms that are not only subjective but also objective and unresponsive to conventional treatments should alert physicians to the probability of the psychiatric condition and the requirement for psychiatric consultation.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":49130,"journal":{"name":"Revue Francaise d Allergologie","volume":"64 3","pages":"Article 104081"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2024-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140548419","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
