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

Common features of anaphylaxis in children
TL;DR: Of the authors' patients, only one developed respiratory failure and cardiac arrest due to SIT, and intensive care support was required, and the frequency of SIT is so high that it cannot be described by the study group including patients who were followed up in an outpatient allergy clinic.
Journal ArticleDOI
Approach to Patients with Symptoms of Food Allergy
TL;DR: Food-allergic reactions are treated by prompt use of intramuscular epinephrine and Investigational therapies may ultimately be preventative or curative.

Regional differences in vitamin D levels and incidence of food-induced anaphylaxis in South Korea
TL;DR: The present study found a higher incidence of FIA in regions with lower vitamin D levels in the population, and further investigation is necessary to identify any direct associations between vitamin D and food allergy/anaphylaxis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low income, high risk: the overlapping stigmas of food allergy and poverty
TL;DR: Interactions between allergy stigma and poverty stigma are revealed and implications for strategies to improve access to education, safe food, and medication for low-income families affected by food allergies are revealed.

Simultaneous identification of the anaphylactoid components from traditional Chinese medicine injections using rat basophilic leukemia 2H3 and laboratory of allergic disease 2 dual‐mixed/cell membrane chromatography model
Shengli Han,Shengli Han,Yanni Lv,Liyun Kong,Yueming Sun,Jia Fu,Lingjun Li,Lingjun Li,Langchong He +8 more
TL;DR: The dual‐mixed/CMC model can significantly improve the efficiency of target component identification from a complex sample when combined with competitive binding assay and validation of biological activities, offering improved methods for quality control of TCM injections.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.
