What is new in beta-lactam allergy in children?
Marina Atanaskovic-Markovic
doi : 10.1111/pai.13375
Volume32, Issue2,Pages 219-222
This review highlights the novelties in understanding the underlying immunologic mechanisms of drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) with special reference to beta-lactams (BLs) in the pediatric population, as well as tiny changes in clinical classification and diagnosis of DHRs, in the last couple of years. BLs are still the most commonly prescribed and used antibiotics in children. Viral infections are very often in children, and they can provoke skin rashes which are difficult to differentiate from DHRs. The majority of children are incorrectly labeled as “allergic.” Therefore, allergy to BLs in children is overdiagnosed. These children often receive suboptimal treatment with second-line broad-spectrum antibiotics, which are less effective, more costly, and associated with an increased risk of antibiotic-resistant infections. This prolongs hospitalization and thus more uses health care. The correct diagnosis of BL allergy in children is still an important and hot topic. This review has outlined the need for correct diagnosis of BL allergy in children and all the controversies encountered by pediatricians and pediatric allergists. It is also necessary to change the paradigm.
Biomarkers of diagnosis and resolution of food allergy
Ru-Xin Foong, Alexandra F. Santos
doi : 10.1111/pai.13389
Volume32, Issue2,Pages 223-233
Food allergy is increasing in prevalence, affecting up to 10% of children in developed countries. Food allergy can significantly affect the quality of life and well-being of patients and their families; therefore, an accurate diagnosis is of extreme importance. Some food allergies can spontaneously resolve in 50%-60% of cow’s milk and egg-allergic, 20% of peanut-allergic and 9% of tree nut-allergic children by school age. For that reason, food-allergic status should be monitored over time to determine when to reintroduce the food back into the child’s diet. The gold-standard to confirm the diagnosis and the resolution of food allergy is an oral food challenge; however, this involves the risk of causing an acute-allergic reaction and requires clinical experience and resources to treat allergic reactions of any degree of severity. In the clinical setting, biomarkers have been used and validated to enable an accurate diagnosis when combined with the clinical history, deferring the oral food challenge, whenever possible. In this review, we cover the tools available to support the diagnosis of food allergies and to predict food allergy resolution over time. We review the latest evidence on different testing modalities and how effective they are in guiding clinical decision making in practice. We also evaluate predictive test cut-offs for the more common food allergens to try and provide guidance on when challenges might be most successful in determining oral tolerance in children.

Foetal exposure to heavy metals and risk of atopic diseases in early childhood
Giancarlo Pesce, Lucile Sesé, Lucia Calciano, Benoit Travert, Boris Dessimond, Cara Nichole Maesano, Giuliana Ferrante, Guy Huel, Julie Prud’homme, Martine Guinot, Munawar Hussain Soomro, Ramen Munir Baloch, Raphael Lhote, Isabella Annesi-Maesano
doi : 10.1111/pai.13397
Volume32, Issue2,Pages 242-250
Accumulating evidence suggests that in utero exposures can influence the development of the immune system and thus contribute to disease development. Studies investigating the association between prenatal exposures to heavy metals and atopic diseases, however, are scarce.
IgE-reactivity profiles to allergen molecules in Russian children with and without symptoms of allergy revealed by micro-array analysis

Volume32, Issue2,Pages 251-263
The analysis of longitudinal birth cohorts with micro-arrayed allergen molecules has provided interesting information about the evolution of IgE sensitization in children. However, so far no cross-sectional study has been performed comparing IgE sensitization profiles in children with and without symptoms of allergy. Furthermore, no data are available regarding molecular IgE sensitization profiles in children from Russia.

Volume32, Issue2,Pages 273-279
Asthmatic children on corticosteroids can develop hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis suppression (HPAS). Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs242941 and rs1876828 of the corticotrophin-releasing hormone receptor 1 (CRHR1) gene were associated with lower stimulated cortisol (F) levels, whereas rs41423247 of the glucocorticoid receptor (NR3C1) gene was associated with higher basal F levels. The objective of the current study was to confirm whether these three SNPs are associated with HPAS in asthmatic children.

Are young children with asthma more likely to be less physically active?
Raisa Cassim, Shyamali C. Dharmage, Rachel L. Peters, Jennifer J. Koplin, Katrina J. Allen, Mimi L. K. Tang, Adrian J. Lowe, Timothy S. Olds, Francois Fraysse, Elasma Milanzi, Melissa A. Russell, on behalf ofthe HealthNuts Investigators
doi : 10.1111/pai.13383
Volume32, Issue2,Pages 288-294
Previous research suggests that children who experience asthma may be less physically active; however, results have been inconclusive. This study aimed to investigate whether the presence of asthma or wheeze is associated with lower physical activity levels in children, and whether sex, body mass index or earlier asthma or wheeze status modifies the association.

Associations between pediatric asthma and adult non-communicable diseases
Nirmin F. Juber, Chien-Chang Lee, Wen-Chi Pan, Jason J. Liu
doi : 10.1111/pai.13395
Volume32, Issue2,Pages 314-321
To date, there is no comprehensive study examining how asthma diagnosed in childhood or adolescence is associated with diagnoses of subsequent non-communicable diseases (NCDs) during adulthood. Our study aimed to examine the associations between pediatric asthma and several adult NCDs, with temporality and long interval times between asthma and NCD diagnoses.

Parents of ataxia-telangiectasia patients display a distinct cellular immune phenotype mimicking ATM-mutated patients
Ismail Ogulur, Tugce Ertuzun, Burcu Kocamis, Yasemin Kendir Demirkol, Emel Uyar, Ayca Kiykim, Dilek Baser, Gozde Yesil, Hacer Akturk, Ayper Somer, Ahmet Ozen, Elif Karakoc-Aydiner, Meltem Muftuoglu, Safa Baris

Volume32, Issue2,Pages 349-357
Heterozygous relatives of ataxia-telangiectasia (AT) patients are at an increased risk for certain AT-related manifestations. We also show that there is an increase of infection frequency in parents of AT patients. Thus, we hypothesized that the parents might exhibit immune alterations similar to their affected children.
