Filter by: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.
Digital technology is essential in the field of health, via connected objects, the medical Internet or even telemedicine; and the info-communication practices (ways of getting information and communicating) of the actors go through digital devices. In addition, at present, the mass of activity documents to be managed in healthcare establishments and an abundant supply of documentary resources in health, available on the Internet, lead to infobesity, information pollution, and work overload. These phenomena lead to an increase in the time spent searching for relevant information and even to the burnout of healthcare professionals. A contextualization of the information communication systems through which the practices of health professionals pass therefore seems necessary so that the tools for managing, extracting and organizing knowledge can support these actors in their work. In the field of allergies, there are many players, and the information that is useful to them is abundant and heterogeneous. This study is based on the hypothesis that a knowledge organization model, developed from existing practices, could make it possible to obtain satisfactory results when searching for information, and be integrated into the daily practices of actors by linking up with other already existing systems and tools.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of ADP101 in food allergic children and adults.
The goal of this study is to establish a birth cohort that collects prenatal and early life biosamples and environmental samples and rigorously phenotypes young children for food allergy and Atopic Dermatitis (AD) to identify prenatal and early life markers of high risk for food allergy and AD, as well as biological pathways (endotypes) that result in these conditions. Primary Objectives: - To study the role and interrelationships of established and novel clinical, environmental, biological, and genetic prenatal and early-life factors in the development of allergic diseases through age 3 years, with an emphasis on atopic dermatitis and food allergy - To apply systems biology to identify mechanisms and biomarkers underlying the development of food allergy, atopic dermatitis, and their endotypes - To collect, process, and assay or store environmental and biological samples for current and future use in the study of allergic disease development
Multicenter randomized (1:1) trial of strict avoidance versus sub-threshold dietary introduction of peanut in peanut allergic infants 4-14 months of age who react at a minimum cumulative dose of at least 430 mg of peanut protein at initial oral food challenge (OFC) for 12 months, followed by cross-over to sub-threshold dietary introduction of peanut in those randomized initially to avoidance.
Food allergy (FA) derives from an abnormal immunological response to dietary antigens. On the basis of the immunological mechanism, FA are divided into the following forms: IgE-mediated, non-IgE-mediated and mixed. Prevalence, persistence and severity of pediatric FA have significantly increased over the past 2 decades. The treatment of FA is based on a rigorous elimination diet and on the correct management of acute allergic reactions, induced by the accidental ingestion of food allergens, with antihistamines, cortisones and adrenaline. Ensuring a strict exclusion of the allergen from the diet can be problematic, with the risk of nutritional deficiencies, accidental exposure, cross-contamination or caused by incorrect labeling of processed food products. At the same time, the daily management of a correct elimination diet and a possible allergic reaction, entail a significant burden and high levels of anxiety and stress associated with uncertainty about the management of anaphylaxis, in the parents of children with FA, particularly in mothers, resulting in an impact on Quality of Life (QoL). The availability of a multidisciplinary team made up of pediatricians, allergists and dietitians / nutritionists with experience in the field of FA could reduce the stress and anxiety of parents, while improving their QoL. Currently, for the evaluation of the quality of life of the parent of a child with FA, specific questionnaires for food allergies developed and validated in English are used: the food allergy self-efficacy scale for parents (FASE-P) and the Food Allergy Quality of Life - Parental Burden Questionnaire (FAQL-PB).
Allergic diseases are currently one of the most important problem in medicine. Research confirms that probiotics administered during the formation of the intestinal ecosystem and the maturation of the immune system can positively influence the development of antiallergic mechanisms. The aim of the present randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled study was to evaluate the efficacy of the mixture of probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus ŁOCK 0900, Lactobacillus rhamnosus ŁOCK 0908, and Lactobacillus casei ŁOCK 0919 in children up to the age 2 with atopic dermatitis and food allergy to cow's milk proteins. Children received the mixture of Lactobacillus strains for 3 months every day in the daily dose of a billion bacteria or a placebo (maltodextrin). Primary outcomes included the effects of probiotic treatment on the severity of symptoms assessed with SCORing atopic dermatitis (SCORAD) index. Secondary endpoints included assessment of total IgE and selected cytokine levels. Cytokines were evaluated in supernatants obtained from peripheral blood cultures of randomly selected 20 patients from each group. The primary and secondary outcomes were assessed at 3 time points: at baseline, after the finishing the administration of probiotic/placebo, and after 9 months of follow up.
This is a prospective, single-site controlled observational study designed to comprehensively determine whether children and adults with atopic dermatitis (AD) and food allergy (FA) have skin abnormalities which distinguish them from children with AD without FA, and non-atopic (NA) controls.
