Fast Allergy Sensitivity Test
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), or functional colopathy, is a chronic disease that affects 10% to 20% of the world's population.This syndrome is characterized by chronic abdominal pain or discomfort as well as a change in bowel habits (constipation or diarrhea) in the absence of structural or metabolic abnormalities (e.g. celiac disease, Crohn's disease). These symptoms have an impact on the quality of life of these patients who must therefore integrate the management of their disease into their daily life.IBS is subdivided into 3 subtypes according to the predominant symptom: the IBS-D subtype which groups together patients who have...

Feasibility Study of a New Immunoglobulin E (IgE) Assay Method
The main objective is to study the feasibility of a new specific IgE assay using a bioluminescence technique in a pediatric and adult allergic population. For this, we will collect blood, and urine during a blood test scheduled for the follow-up of the patient.

Fibrostenotic Eosinophilic Esophagitis: Assessment Tools
This protocol addresses a central hypothesis that fibrostenotic Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) is characterized by abnormal esophageal structure and compliance compared to non fibrostenotic EoE and that distinctive cellular and molecular profiles predict the fibrostenotic phenotype. This study aims to define and assess the changes that occur in the structure and dynamics of the esophageal wall in pediatric Eosinophilic Esophagitis along with characterizing the histologic and molecular patterns in fibrostenotic EoE.

Fish Oral Immunotherapy in Hong Kong Children
At present there is no cure for food allergy. People with a food allergy need to avoid the food they are allergic to in order to stay safe, but we know that accidental exposure is common. Researchers have begun to look at the effectiveness of 'oral immunotherapy' as a treatment for food allergy but results have been mixed. This study is a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of Fish Immunotherapy (FOIT), with codfish as the primary focus, in inducing tolerance in children with fish allergy compared with Placebo. Children will take increasing doses of codfish protein until a total of 12 months treatment is...

Food-Specific and Component IgE Threshold Levels That Predict Food Allergy in People With Elevated Total Serum IgE Levels and Atopic Dermatitis
Background: Atopic dermatitis (AD), also called eczema, makes skin dry, red, and itchy. People with AD are more likely to get a food allergy than people without AD. But some food allergy tests are not always accurate in people with AD. Researchers want to study if people are truly allergic to milk and/or peanuts. Objectives: To improve the ways doctors test for food allergy in people with AD. Eligibility: People ages 3 21 who have had AD; have a high total IgE level (an allergic antibody); might have a milk and/or peanut allergy; and are currently enrolled in another NIH study Design: ...

GERAP's Epidemiological Survey on Perioperative Hypersensitivity Reactions
Perioperative hypersensitivity reactions are still associated with significant morbidity and mortality despite early recognition and use of epinephrine. The epidemiology of these reactions evolves over time and changes with clinical practice. The main objective is to study the epidemiology of these reactions over a 10-year period, including patient phenotype, reaction phenotype and outcome of the allergic work-up.

Gradual Egg-tolerance Induction in Hen's Egg Allergic Children Who Tolerate Baked Egg (TETI-II Study)
The investigators want to test the hypothesis that a total period of 12 months of stepwise open egg introduction is not inferior when compared to a total period of 20 months gradual open egg introduction of a certain egg product with regard to full egg tolerance induction.

Grass Pollen Immunotherapy Plus Dupilumab for Tolerance Induction
The primary objective of this study is to assess whether the combination of grass allergen sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) and dupilumab for 2 years is more effective than double placebo in suppressing the nasal allergen challenge (NAC) response to grass pollen at 1 year after completion of study medication.
