TLDR
There is no universal agreement on the definition of anaphylaxis or the criteria for diagnosis, so representatives from 16 different organizations or government bodies, including representatives from North America, Europe, and Australia, to continue working toward a universally accepted definition.Abstract:
There is no universal agreement on the definition of anaphylaxis or the criteria for diagnosis. In July 2005, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease and Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Network convened a second meeting on anaphylaxis, which included representatives from 16 different organizations or government bodies, including representatives from North America, Europe, and Australia, to continue working toward a universally accepted definition of anaphylaxis, establish clinical criteria that would accurately identify cases of anaphylaxis with high precision, further review the evidence on the most appropriate management of anaphylaxis, and outline the research needs in this area.read more

RE: Black ant stings caused by Pachycondyla sennaarensis: A significant health hazard.
TL;DR: It is suggested that the measurement of soluble IL-2R (also known as CD25s) could be helpful in distinguishing between Still disease and MAS, and the authors recognize that DNA of parvovirus B-19 can persist in bone marrow for years.

TL;DR: It is of crucial importance to diagnose the variant of MCAS precisely and to take all accompanying, underlying and potentially complicating conditions, and comorbidities into account when establishing the management plan.

Food reactions during avoidance: Focus on peanut.
TL;DR: Clinicians should continue to discuss avoidance as a viable option for long-term peanut allergy management and empower patients to differentiate relevant situations in which accidental reactions might occur.

Fatal and Near-Fatal Anaphylactic Reactions to Food in Children and Adolescents
TL;DR: Six children and adolescents who died of anaphylactic reactions to foods and seven others who nearly died and required intubation were identified and the failure to recognize the severity of these reactions and to administer epinephrine promptly increases the risk of a fatal outcome.

Fatalities due to anaphylactic reactions to foods.
TL;DR: Fatal anaphylactic reactions to foods are continuing to occur, and better characterization might lead to better prevention, and peanuts and tree nuts accounted for more than 90% of the fatalities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical features and severity grading of anaphylaxis
TL;DR: A simple grading system and definition of anaphylaxis has potential value for defining reaction severity in clinical practice and research settings and appears to be the major determinants of reaction severity.
