Early consumption of peanuts in infancy is associated with a low prevalence of peanut allergy

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Jewish children in the UK have a prevalence of PA that is 10-fold higher than that ofJewish children in Israel, and this difference is not accounted for by differences in atopy, social class, genetic background, or peanut allergenicity.

Brian P. Vickery, +71 more
TL;DR: Treatment with AR101 resulted in higher doses of peanut protein that could be ingested without dose‐limiting symptoms and in lower symptom severity during peanut exposure at the exit food challenge than placebo, in this phase 3 trial of oral immunotherapy in children and adolescents who were highly allergic to peanut.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Avoidance on Peanut Allergy after Early Peanut Consumption

TL;DR: Among children at high risk for allergy in whom peanuts had been introduced in the first year of life and continued until 5 years of age, a 12-month period of peanut avoidance was not associated with an increase in the prevalence of peanut allergy.
Journal ArticleDOI
