Use of Dexamethasone in Prevention of the Second Phase or a Biphasic Reaction of Anaphylaxis
Anaphylaxis is an acute serious allergic reaction, with multi-organ system manifestations caused by the release of chemical mediators and it is potentially fatal . Between 5% and 14% of patients may experience a recurrence of anaphylaxis 8-12 hours after the initial presentation, called biphasic (late-phase) . The mainstay of treatment for children experiencing anaphylaxis remains adrenaline and H1-antihistamines. Corticosteroids are not life-saving and do not have an immediate effect on the symptoms of anaphylaxis but may help reduce or prevent a biphasic "late phase" reaction . The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of oral glucocorticoids in prevention of the...

Using Commonly Available Food Products To Treat Food Allergy
Food allergy affects 1 in 30 children, and is the commonest trigger for life-threatening reactions (anaphylaxis) in this age group. It is a major public health issue, with practical implications for industry, education and healthcare systems. Oral immunotherapy (OIT) is an emerging treatment option, where small, increasing doses of a food allergen are used to cause "desensitisation", so food-allergic individuals no longer have symptoms when exposed to the trigger food. However, frequent allergic reactions during OIT (including anaphylaxis) are common, and can lead to patients having to stop treatment. In addition, food-allergic children usually dislike the taste of the food they...

Autologous Serum Obtained by a Closed-Circuit Collection Device
Autologous serum eye drops (ASED) are an established therapy for ocular surface diseases; however, their preparation can be costly and may not be available due to the need for germ-free conditions. This pilot trial assesses the feasibility of collecting ASED in a closed-circuit system for patients with chronic ocular surface diseases.

Benmelstobart-Anlotinib-Chemo for Neoadjuvant Oral Cancer
Exploring the Safety and Efficacy of Benmelstobart Combined with Anlotinib and Chemotherapy as Neoadjuvant Therapy Followed by Surgery and Postoperative Radiotherapy in Patients with Locally Advanced Oral Cancer This is a single-center, Phase II study targeting patients with stage III-IVb locally advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The neoadjuvant therapy consists of Benmelstobart combined with Anlotinib and chemotherapy for 3 cycles (21 days per cycle). Surgery is performed within 2 weeks after completing neoadjuvant therapy. Postoperative adjuvant treatment is selected based on pathological grading: Group A (Pathological...

Biologics and Sublingual Immunotherapy
Most current studies involve using a biological drug to increase the safety of allergen immunotherapy (AIT) especially in the treatment of food allergies, to avoid the risk of anaphylaxis. However, adding Xolair® to AIT may improve the therapy's effectiveness. There are still few observations on this topic, especially in patients with house dust mite (HDM)-driven asthma.

Dietary Restriction Efficiency Assessment of Different Hypoallergenic Formulas in Patients With Suspected Cow's Milk Protein Allergy
This clinical trial aims to evaluate and compare the efficacy of amino acid formula (AAF) and extensively hydrolyzed formula (eHF) in relieving symptoms in infants suspected of cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA) during the diagnostic elimination diet phase. The study will also assess treatment compliance, economic costs, and develop a CMPA screening score suitable for Chinese infants. Eligible infants (0-6 months old) will be randomized to receive either AAF or eHF for at least 2 weeks. Symptom improvement will be evaluated, followed by an oral food challenge (OFC) to confirm CMPA diagnosis. Infants in the eHF group who do not improve may switch to AAF for further evaluation. The...
