Food hypersensitivity: an examination of factors influencing symptoms and temporal changes in the prevalence of sensitization in an adult sample

H. C. Y. Lam, C. Neukirch, et al.

This research explores the intriguing connections between severe food reactions and factors like asthma history. Conducted by a team of experts including Holly C. Y. Lam and Catherine Neukirch, the study sheds light on sensitization trends in adults over a decade. Dive into the findings that reveal the complex interplay of age and health in food sensitivity.

Abstract
This study examines factors associated with self-reported severe food reactions, onset age, and changes in sensitization prevalence over time in adults. Data from the European Community Respiratory Health Survey (ECRHS) III (2010-2014) (n=4865) and a subsample with serum IgE testing from ECRHS II (n=1612) were analyzed. Self-reported FHS prevalence was 13.5%. Asthma history and younger onset age were associated with severe reactions. Overall sensitization prevalence did not change over 10 years.
