OBJECTIVE There are few studies on the natural history of milk allergy. Most are single-site and not longitudinal, and these have not identified a means for early prediction of outcomes. METHODS Children aged 3 to 15 months were enrolled in an observational study with either (1) a convincing history of egg allergy, milk allergy, or both with a positive skin prick test (SPT) response to the tr...

BACKGROUND There have been several reports on neonates with milk allergy in a neonatal ward. This type of allergy is mostly categorized as a non-IgE-mediated food allergy. Although most cases of milk allergy occur in the first few months of life, the differences in clinical characteristics between premature and full-term neonates are still unclear. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to clarify the di...

Background Milk allergy is the most common food allergy in infants and young children. Typical milk allergy symptoms involve hives, vomiting, or even anaphylaxis. For cow’s milk, strict avoidance is difficult because milk proteins are very ubiquitous. Oral immunotherapy (OIT) is an effective therapeutic option to induce milk oral tolerance. However, the immune mechanisms underlying this treatme...

Background Although cow’s milk allergy is considered as food allergy prototype, true prevalence of cow’s milk allergy in Lithuania is not known. Aims of this research were to determine the prevalence of sensitization to cow’s milk in EuroPrevall Lithuanian birth cohort, to evaluate the relationship between children age and gender, sensitization to other allergens, relationship between sensitiza...

Background. In some asthmatics the food allergy, for example, to milk, can participate in their bronchial complaints. The role of food allergy should be confirmed definitively by food ingestion challenge performed by an open challenge with natural foods (OFICH) or by a double-blind placebo-controlled food challenge (DBPCFC).

However, studies on this relationship vary in outcome, which may partly be related to differences in breast milk composition. In particular breast milk composition may differ between allergic and non-allergic mothers. Important components that may be involved are breast milk proteins, as these are k...
