Oral intake of nickel (Ni) is capable of causing the onset of systemic disorders in patients with Systemic Allergy to Nickel Syndrome (SNAS), an emerging allergic condition. Given its ubiquitous age, it is not possible to completely eliminate Ni and, therefore, it is necessary to plan a low-content diet. However, due to various factors (such as variability of Ni concentration in the soil, individual foods, variability of dietary habits and daily menus, different intake of Ni contained in the water, different intake of kitchen utensils, simultaneous intake of other substances), a restrictive diet is difficult and socially discriminating with a strongly negative impact on the quality of life of these patients. Hydroponic agriculture in a completely controlled, aseptic, artificial, soilless environment could be an alternative for patients suffering from SNAS with known and lower concentrations of metals than those deriving from conventional agricultural techniques, which are affected by the soil of origin and practices cultivation. The primary outcome of the study is to evaluate the possible effects of taking tomato puree deriving from hydroponic agriculture compared to tomato puree from conventional cultivation in the subjective control of SNAS symptoms, in patients following a low-diet diet. This is an interventional, randomized, double-blind, single-center crossover study involving a cohort of SNAS patients following a low-nickel diet for at least 4-6 weeks.
In this trial the investigators aim to assess the effectiveness and safety of oral immunotherapy with sesame protein in high and low dose (300mg versus 1200mg) in children with sesame allergy.
The prevalence of food allergy in the western world is a growing health problem. The majority of reactions are caused due to oral exposure to the known food allergen. However, there are reports about allergic symptoms after exposure to the allergenic food by contact and/ or inhalation. Most of those reports are subjective without an objective report of healthcare professionals. There are only a few prospective studies that observed objectively the "reliability" of those subjective reports. The estimated chance for systemic allergic reaction due to skin prick test with fresh food is 0.008%, and even then it will not cause anaphylaxis that will need epinephrine use. That evidence is in concordance with our experience. Even with all the information gathered, a study that examines the chance of systemic reaction after skin contact with the allergenic food is still missing. Additionally, lately, researchers start to examine the influence of food allergy on the quality of life (QOL) of allergic children and their parents. As expected, all studies show negative effects on QOL. The major concern of the parents is from random exposure and severe allergic reaction due to contact with the allergenic food. As far as the investigators know, no study examined the influence of supervised contact with allergenic food on the fear of the child and his parents. The study aims to evaluate the risk for a systemic allergic reaction after skin exposure to allergenic food in children with known food allergy.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), or functional colopathy, is a chronic disease that affects 10% to 20% of the world's population.This syndrome is characterized by chronic abdominal pain or discomfort as well as a change in bowel habits (constipation or diarrhea) in the absence of structural or metabolic abnormalities (e.g. celiac disease, Crohn's disease). These symptoms have an impact on the quality of life of these patients who must therefore integrate the management of their disease into their daily life.IBS is subdivided into 3 subtypes according to the predominant symptom: the IBS-D subtype which groups together patients who have a predominance of diarrheal episodes, the IBS-C subtype which groups together patients who have a predominance of '' episodes of constipation and finally the IBS-M subtype which includes patients whose two symptoms mentioned above are observed without predominance
This study will assess the role for an oral targeted medication, abrocitinib, as a new treatment option for food allergy patients that would avoid injections. Abrocitinib, which has successfully completed phase three trials for atopic dermatitis, could serve as a single therapy for two conditions in many patients with multiple atopic conditions.
Food allergy is a potentially life-threatening condition, and its prevalence continues to increase despite public health efforts. There are currently no known therapies that can reliably prevent food-induced anaphylaxis. This is an open-label study designed to determine the ability acalabrutinib to prevent signs and symptoms of anaphylaxis during an oral food challenge in food-allergic adults.
The purpose of this trial is to assess the safety and efficacy of peanut immunotherapy in children and adults with peanut allergy. Participants will receive immunotherapy with peanut every 2 weeks for a period of 3 months.
This study aims to investigate the incidence of venous thromboembolism in people who are diagnosed with atopic dermatitis.
This STRING study will examine markers of esophageal inflammation using a minimally-invasive testing device, the esophageal string test (EST). The primary objective is to determine the effect of omalizumab (Xolair) and dupilumab (Dupixent) on markers of eosinophilic inflammation in the esophagus of subjects treated with omalizumab-facilitated mOIT(mult-allergen oral immunotherapy) and/or mOIT with concurrent dupilumab.
