Cause of Unexplained Anaphylaxis
This study will explore the possible cause of unexplained, or idiopathic, anaphylaxis. Anaphylaxis is a rapid, life-threatening, severe reaction that occurs suddenly after contact with an allergy-causing substance, usually a particular food, drug or stinging insect. The allergen triggers mast cells to release several substances, including histamine. Histamine is responsible for many of the symptoms that may occur, such as flushing, hives, swelling of the palms and soles or tongue and vocal cords, nasal congestion, itching and tearing of the eyes, shortness of breath and wheezing, stomach pain, vomiting, low blood pressure, loss of ...

CBT Group Intervention for Children With Food Allergy and Anxiety
The research will design and evaluate a CBT based intervention to support children aged 12-17 with food allergies. The research on this population has shown that they can experience high levels of anxiety in management of their allergy which can have a significant impact on quality of life. However, the research exploring psychological interventions is limited. CBT has a wide evidence base from NHS settings delivering interventions to support those with various health conditions. In addition, CBT has been shown to be effective for supporting adolescents manage their health-related anxiety. The investigators are interested in the ...

Changes in Esophageal Distensibility With Proton Pump Inhibitors in Patients With Esophageal Eosinophilia: A Pilot Study
This pilot study will explore whether treatment of eosinophilic inflammation in the esophagus is associated with an improved distensibility of the esophagus. Furthermore, previous studies of the esophagus using EndoFlip only measured distensibility of the distal esophagus, specifically the distal esophagus and esophagogastric junction. Eosinophilia in EoE has been demonstrated to affect both upper, middle and lower esophagus. The aim is to measure distensibility both proximal and distal, before and after treatment.

Characteristic and Evolution of an Atypical IgE-mediated Cow Milk Allergy Form With Hands and Feet Angio-oedema
Cow milk allergy is one of the most frequent food allergy among children. Cow milk protein's avoidance is needed until spontaneous recovery during the two first years of life. A atypical clinical form with angio-oedema of hands and feet which is associated with high rate of lactoserum's IgE might be a hope of an earlier recovery.

Clinical Study Using Biologics to Improve Multi OIT Outcomes
Food allergy (FA) is a serious public health concern that causes potentially-life threatening reactions in affected patients. The prevalence of food allergy in the United States (U.S.) has increased substantially and now affects 15 million patients:4-8% of children (6 million children, 30% with multiple food allergies) and about 9% of adults. This is a prospective Phase 2, single-center, multi-allergen OIT study in participants with proven allergies to 2 or 3 different foods in which one must be a peanut. The total of participants in the clinical study will be 110, ages 6 to 25 years with a history of multiple food allergies of 2 to 3 ...

Clinical Utility of Handheld Hydrogen Breathalyzer in Identification of Food Sensitivities (AIRE Study)
Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) is defined as a condition in which an abnormally high amount of coliform bacteria is present in the small bowel and results in premature anaerobic fermentation of carbohydrates before reaching the colon. Commonly recognized causes include gastric achlorhydria, post-surgical bowel stasis, gastrocolic/coloenteric fistulas, and motility disorders leading to bowel stasis.. The current "gold standard" for the diagnosis of SIBO, is a breath test that measures the concentration of hydrogen in response to lactulose, a carbohydrate that is only metabolized by bacteria. However, its accuracy is only...
