However, to the best of our knowledge, no study has evaluated TARC levels in the acute phase of immunoglobulin E-dependent food allergy (IgE-FA). If TARC elevation is a specific response to FPIES among FAs, TARC measurement may help distinguish between FPIES and IgE-FA. Thus, we investigated acute phase TARC levels in patients with FPIES and IgE-FA. Methods: Thirty-one episodes in 16 patients with FPIES and 20 episodes (13 were anaphylaxis) in 20 patients with IgE-FA were included. Patients with eczema were excluded. Serum TARC levels within 6 h of allergic reaction onset and age-adjusted TARC ratios (TARC levels divided by age-specific normal TARC values) were compared between the groups. Results: The median age was 1.1 and 3.6 years in the FPIES and IgE-FA groups, respectively (P < 0.001). The median (range) serum TARC (pg/mL) levels were significantly higher in the FPIES group than in the IgE-FA group [1,283 (410-3,821) versus 377 (109-1,539); P < 0.001]. The median (range) age-adjusted TARC ratios were also significantly higher in the FPIES group [2.56 (0.57-7.86) versus 1.08 (0.15-2.17); P < 0.001]. The area under the curve (AUC) for TARC to distinguish FPIES from IgE-FA was 0.926, and the AUC for the age-adjusted TARC ratio was 0.850. The odds ratio for FPIES diagnosis per 1,000 pg/mL increase in TARC was 31.6 (P = 0.002), and the odds ratio adjusted by age was 17.1 (P = 0.016). Conclusion: Acute phase TARC levels were higher in patients with FPIES than in patients with IgE-FA. The increase in acute phase TARC levels was considered to be a specific response to FPIES among FAs. Measurement of TARC levels in the acute phase may help differentiate FPIES from IgE-FA.","PeriodicalId":54389,"journal":{"name":"Pediatric Allergy Immunology and Pulmonology","volume":"35 3","pages":"114-119"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40369159","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}

The present study aimed to evaluate and identify clinical and laboratory biomarkers of adverse events during OIT among children with cow's milk (CM) allergy. Study Design: Eighty-six children older than 36 months who had undergone OIT with milk were enrolled. Clinical data, oral food challenge (OFC) test results, and laboratory data were recorded retrospectively. Results: The median duration of the build-up phase of OIT was 19 weeks (min 10-max 40) and the duration of the maintenance phase was 86.5 (min 1-max 132) months. A total of 11,767 CM doses were administered during the build-up phase and adverse reactions were seen in 62 (73.8%) patients with reactions registered for 157 doses among 11,767 (1/75 doses). The number of reactions during the maintenance phase was 41 (47.6%) in 24 (27.9%) patients. There was a significant reduction in the number of reactions (P = 0.000) between the build-up phase and maintenance phase. Adverse reactions and anaphylaxis were higher for patients who had cough during OFC (P = 0.003, P = 0.002, respectively) during the build-up phase and also during the maintenance phase too (P = 0.000). Evaluation for all reactions and anaphylaxis (during build-up and maintenance) with Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analysis showed class IV-VI of CM-specific immunoglobulin E (sIgE), casein-sIgE and cough during OFC were significantly associated with increased probability of reaction and anaphylaxis.

Successful weaning from HFNC was obtained in 76.9% of the patients, in 82.1% of flow weaning, and 73.6% of direct weaning, with no statistically significant difference determined between the groups (<i>P</i> = 0.286). The median duration of HFNC and the median LOS in PICU were determined to be statistically significantly shorter in direct weaning than in flow weaning [36 h interquartile range (IQR) 24-48 h] versus 60 h (IQR 60-72 h), <i>P</i> < 0.001 and 6 days (4-14 days) versus 9.5 days (5.25-20.75 days, <i>P</i> = 0.043, respectively). <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> In patients who responded to HFNC in PICU, the responses to direct weaning and flow reduction were seen to be similar. In patients directly weaned off, both the HFNC duration and LOS in PICU were significantly shorter.</p>","PeriodicalId":54389,"journal":{"name":"Pediatric Allergy Immunology and Pulmonology","volume":"35 2","pages":"79-85"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9247675/pdf/ped.2021.0229.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9927963","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
