Food Allergy in Infants Clinical Trial
— ESCAPEOfficial title:
Expecting Mother's Study of Consumption or Avoidance of Peanut and Egg
Peanut allergy is the most common cause of fatal and near-fatal food-allergic reactions and egg allergy is among the two most common causes of food-induced anaphylaxis. The proposed research will explore the development of sensitization to these food(s) in infants based on maternal consumption or avoidance during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
